6:34 PMSo....hi! You don't know me, but I'm Blarney, Page of Earth! I['m friends w| DELETED] know Miss Joyeuse Garde, Knight of Earth, and she said that you were one of like two Knights she knows, so I...thought that maybe I should know you too? 6:35 PMI realize that makes me sound sort of insane. Or creepy. Or something. 6:35 PMBut I'm none of those things! I'm just - kind of new to this whole Knight thing and I thought I should say hi to as many Knights as possible. So...hi!

Hi! No, not too creepy in that context.
6:37PM
Joy mentioned me, huh? Nothing bad, I hope. lol
6:38PM
And I'm happy to be a Knight contact if you need one. How long's it been for you?

6:39 PMNo, nothing bad!!! 6:39 PMShe said that you were one of two Knights she "knew as anything beyond acquaintances", which I think is Joy's way of saying you guys are friends. I could be wrong about that, don't quote me, but. I figured a down-played rave review like that (which basically equates to like 5/5 stars in other people speak) meant I should follow up about it. 6:40 PMI powered up in like...May/June? Right around there. How about you? 6:41 PMAnd also Miss Joy said you weren't an Earth Knight, but didn't say what kinda Knight you actually are?

6:41PM
Aw, shucks.
6:42PM
Yeah, that sounds like her. Honestly, I think she means it exactly as it sounds. We are friends though. At least as far as I can tell and am concerned. lol
6:44PM
Okay, so some time to get your feet more than a little wet. Nice.
6:44PM
Mercury for me. Sounds like you're also an Earth knight?

6:45 PMYeah, she isn't really the type to say one thing and mean another, is she? She's super blunt. I like that about her a lot. 6:46 PMAnd also she scares the bejeezus out of me! but that's neither here nor there lol 6:47 PMAnyway, yep. Earth Knight for me, regular boring old Earthling here. With very wet feet, or at least it feels like it. If not, I'm not sure if I want to know what wet feet actually might feel like! It's been...A LOT. 6:47 PMbut i guess i got in at the right time? aka, right AFTER the intergalactic snake came thisclose to eating the entire planet??

Saaaame. She doesn't scare me exactly. She just has like...a really punchy personality.
6:48PM
Definitely a good thing, though. lol
6:49PM
Nothing boring about being a Knight. Sounds like you have a decent idea of that already (sorry).
6:50PM
After is definitely better than before that night, yeah. Looking back, besides knowing that it's still out there is about the only thing that changed. Kind of a sobering thing to look just past the moon these days, though.

7:01 PMShe threatened to kill me once and i do not even for a second think she was being facetious or kidding or anything. I think if things had gone another way my starseed woulda got a one way ticket back to the Cauldron in the sky or whatever lol 7:02 PMBut then I guess she probably wouldn't be a good guy anymore right? She's always mad at the code but I feel like even the code wouldn't be thrilled if we start eating our young 7:02 PMNot. Literally. Hopefully 7:03 PMANYWAY 7:03 PMWhat's one thing you wish you'd learned sooner in your Knightly Journey?

No, she probably wasn't... lol But I think the reasoning would have to be supremely sound for her to actually go through with something like that. She's a good person. Better than she maybe gives herself credit for, sometimes.
7:05PM
But yeah! Um. Good question.
7:05PM
Probably to check my naivety at the door? In everyday civilian life I like to think the best in everyone, but it's pretty hard to apply on the magical side of things.
7:06PM
I'm not saying it's impossible to trust them, but you're better off just not giving them the benefit of the doubt.
7:06PM
Also not saying you should attack them all on sight, but take everything with half a salt shaker's worth of grains of salt kinda thing.

Just be really, really careful, I guess is what I'm trying to say.
7:14PM
The whole "trust is earned" thing really applies.
7:14PM
I'd make them work for my trust, at least.
7:15PM
And even then, I wouldn't make any promises.

7:16 PM How? I mean, how do you make someone work for your trust? Like, set up a trust-lympics and see who shows up? Set a trust trap? Fall off a building and see if they catch you? Mason
7:16 PM I really am actually asking. How can a bad guy do something to earn a good guy's trust if we're always thinking they're out to get us and only ever want to eat our souls or corrupt us or whatever? Mason
7:18 PM Can I be nosy and ask what made you feel that way? The whole not trusting them thing? Like was it something one/some of them did to you specifically or just the whole. yanno. eating and corrupting people Thing TM in general Mason
7:18 PM if you don't want to tell me that's totally okay too, i don't mean to pry, i'm just...thinking about a lot of stuff yk

7:20PM
It was just a bad personal experience.
7:20PM
I think you can generalize it to the whole eating and corrupting people thing, though.
7:21PM
Don't get me wrong. You can have decent conversations with some of them.
7:22PM
Just at the end of the day, could you trust them to have your back?
7:22PM
For me, the answer is gonna be "no" most of the time.
7:23PM
But I do have one exception to this rule right now.

7:24 PM Feel like sharing? Or is it a secret? Mason
7:25 PM If I know I can avoid accidentally beating on them if I run into them in the real world 👀
