[ So, Roy hasn't been around that long, but he's gotten to know Keeliai, the natives, heard about the Emperor and definitely picked up on the tension between foreigners and the Kedan, but just out right asking about What The Hell Is Wrong With This Place seems a little too obvious. And lame.

And this way is much more fun. ]

Okay so is there a part of living on the back of a giant magic turtle that isn't supposed to be completely awesome? Because a lot of you seem to be really bummed about it, and I'm starting to think it's more than just a strong case of Stick Up The Ass going around.

[ And frankly, Roy likes looking like the idiot. He raises up a hand holding some kind of Kedanian smoothie in the cafe he's seated in, and gives an 'okay, humor me' kind of gesture. ]

Let's pretend for two seconds that you're all actually the most boring people ever and the part where we're on a monster turtle isn't enough for you - you're getting what's practically a free vacation. A beautiful city on a tropical island that's really more like a cruise, and even a space you can go sit near Yurtle's massive head and zen your neurotic brains out. The closest we have to that at home is legalizing pot.

I know I'm inviting a sea of sarcastic quips to kill my buzz about the whole badass Suessical adventure, so let's try to be organized and civil about this - there's only so much scathing sardonicism I can handle at once. Please fill out the attached form and get back to me:

Your Name: Self explanatory.
Your Age: It'd probably explain some things, I'm jussayin.
Level of Suck of Your Homeworld: On a scale of Fantasia to Bambi. Just trying to keep some perspective.
Your Complaints About Our Magical Turtle Adventure: Let it all out, brothers and sisters. Testify.
Notes: Whatever. How's my hair?

Thank you for your participation! Here is a wavier for your free snow cone! Not really. Sorry.

[ Oh wait, just this last piece here: ] Also, if you know anyone who likes to run around in tights and a mask, maybe a cape, let me know? Thanks! [ A little salute, and he signs out. ]

[[ ooc; If you could, please fill out his permissions post ova hurr, and here's the html for his little questionnaire thing :>

Would you consider someone who came up with the term 'bat shark-repellent' very funny? And Gotham does have a harbor. Plus, there are uses sometimes with the League and the Titans.

I've only met the you from my world a few times, too. So, most of what I know comes through Dick.

[And Batfiles. Obviously. Creepy stalkers that they are.]

Yeah, but are their seriously sharks around Jersey? When did the League of the Titans fight Jaws?

Uuuh whatever he said is a lie. Unless it was good. I'm doubting it was good.

[ 8| wow, batcreepers ]

Well, not many. And basically never, but it could happen. And you know the Bat Scout motto: be prepared.

Why wouldn't it be good? [You guys are bros.]

Batscouts. How is that not a thing that is surprising. Well, it's Gotham, so whatever.

No reason in specific. He probably thought I was annoying. [ And also he's sleeping with his ex-girlfriend 8T ]

That's pretty much always the response when it comes to Gotham.

Yeah, that's not the feeling I got, but... Well, like you said. Different universe. Different you. Different me. Probably different him as well. [And that thought is just w e i r d.]

So how would you rank this place on a scale from Gotham to the Bahamas?

Yeah, true enough. Apparently the other Roy is a hell of a lot different from me so that makes sense. [ don't you judge him ]

Way closer to the Bahamas. Though some things make it feel a little like home. I don't get too bored at night, at least.

He's a little more grim than you these days. [With good reason.]

There's actual crime to fish here, and not, like, fishing in someone else's spot?

Yeah, I heard 'grumpy' before. Sucks to be him.

Actual crime, actual gangs. It's not quite like home--because there's no place like home, like the stories say, But I don't get too bored.

And yeah. It really does suck to be him.

Hot damn, bat-kid. Got your night job all set up for you.

Huh. Noted. I'll make a point not to end up in his dimension.

What can I say? Sometimes it's good to be me.

Well... I'd say I mostly find it a pretty decent place to be, but you know. I'm from Gotham. I think that skews my perspective a little.

I hear you. The shadier side of Detriot would be a decent place in comparison.

Hey, you're talking about my home.

[If text could sound amused, this would.]
