PLEASE say #2 is true because that's brilliant

[deathstouch]

Is 2 the lie?

[ It sounds quite awful to him. ]

[astralera]

[ she doesn't understand most of what anyone is talking about in these posts, sadly. so she has to ask questions and make random guesses. ]

May I ask what an album is?

My guess will be the third.

[bratpack]

oh my god number 2 better not be the lie
that's fucking awesome, man

[tangleofgarlands]

[Well, someone was going to address it eventually.]

it's true. It was supposed to be a five-way but one of my flatmates was sleeping off a hangover.

[tangleofgarlands]

Oh. Er--it's like a large disk with grooves in it that plays a recording of music. You can call it a record too, actually. Usually it comes in a sort of paper sleeve with pictures of the musician on it.

You're correct, in any case. I actually prefer coffee. Tried it once and I've never gone back.

[tangleofgarlands]

No, actually.
Sometimes I have difficulty believing it myself, but my partners have assured me it really happened.

[tangleofgarlands]

it's true.
I'm not sure if this is the right thing to say, but thanks. I think.
It was fun. Sort of like learning to swim by throwing yourself in the deep water with a bunch of friends nearby to make sure you don't drown.

[deathstouch]

That is some start, I suppose...

[tangleofgarlands]

You're right about that.
it didn't give me time to overthink anything. I'm pretty sure that was the point, though.

[astralera]

So it would be similar to my world's Orchestrion rolls. Thank you for the explanation, ser.

I enjoy both, but have a preference for hot cocoa.

[tangleofgarlands]

it's no trouble. You can just call me Arthur if you like.

I haven't had hot cocoa since I was little. My nan used to make it for us.

[deathstouch]

I suppose that it could have been worse.

[tangleofgarlands]

I'm fairly sure it couldn't have been better.
I still lived with them up until I left London. They're good lads, and they were good to me.
Generally, not just. Uh. At the time.

[astralera]

I am Era. It is good to meet you, Arthur.

I have not had cocoa for many moons now.

[ not since rescuing Aymeric from The Vault... ]

[bratpack]

man, i wish i lost my virginity in a four way
you're the fucking boss, man
that's pretty much an orgy you lost your virginity in an orgy.

how old were you???

[tangleofgarlands]

the whole thing was mad.
I...wouldn't call myself that, though. My mates did all the work, I just. attended the experience.
I suppose you could call it an orgy but I never thought of it that way.

I was a few weeks shy of eighteen.

Since I'm not sure what an album with and the second one seems like the type of answer to throw those guessing off, I'll say it is number three.

[vexy]

what a shame! ah well, there's always time for another five-way

[bratpack]

yeah
that's awesome, you get mad props
stop playing it down, dude, you're living the dream

[tangleofgarlands]

Sorry. I can't help it. It's sort of a brit thing.

I like that phrasing of it, though. "Living the dream". A few times I literally had things happen that I'd dreamed about before.

[tangleofgarlands]

You say that as though I know more than three other blokes here.

[tangleofgarlands]

You're correct. I drink tea because everyone else drinks tea, but I recently started drinking coffee instead.

An album is a recording of music, by the way. It's a large disk with grooves in it that line up to a needle, and it spins and plays back the sound. Usually it has art or pictures of the musician on a paper cover.

I have the album I was talking about with me, but I don't have anything to play it on.

[tangleofgarlands]

It's good to meet you too, Era.

I've found a coffee shop I like. I think they make hot cocoa as well.

[deathstouch]

Ah, I see. I suppose physical intimacy is probabl something I view much differently.

That is good, to have kind friends.

[ Not that he knows much about either of these topics, to be honest. ]
