[Action to 945 Beulah Street]
[Goodbye drone husband. Hello Signless who is getting the most restful sleep he's gotten in sweeps. It's almost a shame he's a terribly light sleeper. Even small noises or movements on the other side of the bed will wake him.
Care to test it?]
[Phone]
From what I've- oh, am I not holding it right? I apologize- thank you. From what I've been told I'm no longer on Alternia. I'm not sure how much of a blessing I can call this but I'm sure I'll get used to this town. Being a completely different species, however, will take some adjusting.
Lulu, Di, Psi- if any of you are here, please do not hesitate to let me know. That includes anyone else who may be from Alternia and those who are not. I'd like to meet the..."locals" for lack of a better term.
I'm afraid I must come off as very rude for not introducing myself before asking to meet people. If you wish to call me by a name, you may call me Signless.

...I believe I'd be lying if I said this was entirely unexpected.

Date: 2011-12-08 04:49 am (UTC)Signless? I've heard about you from Dolorosa and Disciple. My name is Sollux Captor and I am a troll from Alternia. I'm from a further generation of trolls then you are, though.

His voice wavers for a moment.] Of course I'm alive. Why shouldn't I be? [Other than because he's had dreams of his own death since he was a wriggler.]

Date: 2011-12-08 04:55 am (UTC)But then he says that name. There's no point for desperate thoughts about this being a fake, not when all of the older trolls so far have shared a blood color with one of them. But he doesn't think he can do this. He didn't think he could manage when Dolorosa came, when she called him the second signless and looked at him with so many expectations, when he glossed over the deaths of him friends and pretended not to know all her hopes for him were in vain.
He knows he can't deal with this. He can't stand the comparison. He can't stand the thought of his friends finding out what he was supposed to be, and taking a good look at what they got instead. He can't stand to think of how badly he's disappointed in himself. He doesn't hang up but there isn't anything to say. He isn't going to give the Signless a shitty insulting note about how to survive in Mayfield. Right, that's your legacy right there, a brat kid who swears at his friends so he can pretend he's accomplishing something. There's your hope for the species.
He just grips the audio hook tightly in his hand to muffle the sound of how panicked his breathing has gotten and hates and hates and hates.]

Date: 2011-12-08 05:00 am (UTC)I am a troll from Alternia, although my appearance shows otherwise at the moment.
You're in Mayfield. It's a human town of some sort with very strange things. It puts us into a human hive and a family from their culture.
scream Redglare you are adorable

Date: 2011-12-08 05:07 am (UTC)A further generation?
;m; Her idorru. She is excite.
Date: 2011-12-08 05:07 am (UTC)You see, I guess I am just surprised as meeting you would never be possible back home. But I am one who believes in your words. It is a wonderful pleasure. Neophyte Redglare.

no subject
Date: 2011-12-08 05:13 am (UTC)Yeah. I'm not sure how many sweeps in the future I am but I know that my group of friends and myself are all direct descendants of your generation.
This town takes people from different times and universes, in case you happened to be wondering how we could be in the same place we're not from the same time.

Date: 2011-12-08 05:13 am (UTC)Where are you?
nothing; 1/2
Date: 2011-12-08 05:14 am (UTC)[.......Wow.
What is this feeling he has just from hearing Signless's voice? It's definitely not the feeling he got when he heard other trolls talking into this phone, while he regarded them curiously through the other side. Oh, but who is he kidding? He can't be deluded enough to deny this feeling and he knows exactly what it is!
It's disgust and hatred.]

Date: 2011-12-08 05:16 am (UTC)You have nothing to apologize for. I've already spoken to one of them and I've been told Lulu is currently in the town. And it's good to know there are others from Alternia here. [The trolls he's spoken to so far seem un-hostile.]
It's good to meet you, Gamzee.

Date: 2011-12-08 05:18 am (UTC)It's hardly a blessing being in Mayfield, as you will soon find out.
