You were lucky to have found that here.
Yeah, they do, but it's not easy.
It's incredibly complex and nuanced.
They have as much difficulty as the rest of us in that regard.
One of their quadrants actually requires mediation from a third party.
So you'd rather cordon yourself off from anything significant to avoid being burned by the whims of the city?
That sounds terribly lonely.
No, I did not think you wished me here.
It was sarcasm.

-=dude is that messed up in the head right now that he's missing sarcasm=-

im a sprite
lonely is just kinda what happens

[cephalopodcounselor]

Being a sprite does not mean you should be lonely.
Davesprite- you know, sometimes I really just want to strip the "sprite" from your name.
Not because it's any less a part of who you are now, but to affirm the fact that you're more than what that word implies.

[cawfullyironic]

am i though
im just as programmed as the rest of them
and like
fuck
you ever ask one of the trolls what happened to their sprites when their session ended

[cephalopodcounselor]

Our session is fundamentally different from theirs.
For starters we packed up and left it for the new session.
Perhaps by doing so we bypassed the game mechanic that would prevent you from continuing to live.
After all, you were able to leave our session without any problems.

[cawfullyironic]

we left the universe yeah but the session never ended
jade still got our planets and were merging with another one
its just not over yet

[cephalopodcounselor]

I know.
The way we've played our session to this point is unprecedented - though I suppose there may be sessions we know nothing about that were played prior to the ones we do know of, thus the possibility of our session being unprecedented may be nothing more than conjecture.
Which stands to reason your assumption that you will cease to exist when we finish the new session may be as based on conjecture as any other assumption or believed inevitability that any of us may have in regards to the game.

[cawfullyironic]

yeah well
im not holdin my breath for a happy ending

[cephalopodcounselor]

I'm not certain any of us are.
