all that melodramatic sadbabble aside i think its perfectly cool if youre still curious about your adult self and i dont mind tellin you more stuff about him if you want i know im still wondering about what my adult self got up to Yeah. Well like I said, any time you want to know more, feel free to ask. kay how about we do this thing when i met roxy we did a thing A thing? yeah its called the lightning round That does sound like a Roxy thing. Does it by any chance involve asking a rapid-fire series of questions, some of which end up being a bit too personal or invasive? well yeah when she does it we could be chill though when it comes to asking about each others secret crushes and shit Then I guess I will disclaim in advance that I don't have any, and I don't care about yours even if you do. it is settled then on the fact that we are a couple of cool dudes who know where to draw the line on certain topics Cool. So how do we start. Whose lightning round is this, mine or yours? it can be yours go ahead shoot Ok. How... Did... He, um, Come to "adopt" you? i was a baby and i came down to earth on a meteor while riding a pony with a pink heart on its ass he found me in a crater on top of a dead pony and gave me a lil baby pair of shades that look exactly like the ones youre wearin now I see. So you decided to ditch those shades for the aviator glasses? yeah years ago john got me these for my bday it might have been like an "ironic dare" to wear them i dont remember but when i got em i was like hell yeah im wearing these gonna rock these fuckers til the end of time they were ben stillers like literally they actually touched his weird sort of gaunt face in one of his films Wait... THE Stiller? yeah Incredible. Also, such a shame what happened to that poor man. wait what happened to him I can tell you when it's your lightning round. Or mine. Whatever. I'm still not sure whose lightning round it is when you're the one asking questions. dunno ask roxy Ok. Anyway, didn't mean to interrupt. but yeah we would send each other stuff sometimes me and john well we all would usually absurd birthday packages and such We did that too. Except I had to send things through time. Always had to figure out stuff small enough to send through the sendificator, even if it was piece by piece. nice one time it turned out we ACCIDENTALLY sent presents through time i mean not literally, more in a roundabout way we all sent john a rabbit but all three rabbits just turned out to be the same damn rabbit because of stupid time shit Once I deliberately and quite literally sent a rabbit through time. It was a robot. wow He was a loyal friend to Jane. I don't know what happened to him though. yeah i dunno what happened to johns rabbits either rabbits am i right I hear you, man. what next Hm. You say he owned Cal as well? yep Did he come down to Earth on a meteor with Cal too? i think so that was a long time ago kinda weird to imagine him strutting around with that puppet as a kid in the 80s or maybe just kinda funny actually he sure held on to it a long time must have gotten attached at a really early age and just never let go i guess you fell to earth with one of those things too? Yeah. But if I came to Earth on a meteor the same way you all did, then I guess I just got dunked right in the fucking ocean. Which makes sense. One of my earliest memories is of using Cal as a flotation device. So he sorta saved my life in a way. I guess I bonded with him too, the way your bro did, even if that sounds a bit stupid. Then again, it didn't help matters much that I lived alone in the middle of the ocean. He was my only real life friend. I mean, until I built some new ones. hmm wait we fucked up i asked you a question its not my turn keep firing Ok. How did your bro die? he died fighting one of these jacks at this point i almost forget which one no wait ok yeah it was the omnipotent dog one the jack from our session he was fighting like a lesser form of him and then jack got extra prototyped by dog powers and then got outmatched and stabbed with his own sword pretty sure davesprite was fighting with him and almost died too but then it turned out he didnt but now im at least 99% sure that davesprite is DEFINITELY dead and wont suddenly reappear as a stupid surprise or anything I hate stupid surprises. word So, you said he "trained" you. I'm guessing that means he knew what was coming? Or, some things about your future, at least? seems that way not sure what he knew or how he knew it all our guardians seemed to know bits and pieces of stuff and did vague mysterious things to prepare to this day i have no idea if he was training me to fight lord english or if he even knew who that guy was on any conscious level or it was more like general purpose training to be able to survive some hard shit after the end of the world happened youd have to ask him but thats impossible i do know he managed to get the drop on a meteor before i entered the game What? as far as…
