you know me well enough to know the answer to that

just call me cupid i guess

['Cupid' might be easier to pronounce than 'Soeki', to be honest.]

It really was an incredible little device. I think I understand why everyone was so excited about Candy Crush on your network post.

[Says Fiddleford Hadron McGucket.]

candy crush is fucking great, no lie there
shame it can't get wifi in ryslig
then he could have really blown your mind

One day I'll see Goggle in action, one way or another.

[Marco never bothered to correct him, so he's still under the impression that's what it's called...]

I could probably rig up a simple search algorithm for rsdos actually. There's an awful lot of information lost to newer arrivals because it happened so long ago. Being able to look things up might be awful helpful and cut down on all the posts asking about how to deal with growing claws.

But that'll require Liewen to let us make any changes at all to the dang computers, and you know they're never going to.

[Okay you know what, he's not even going to correct that. Call it goggle, buddy.]

i tuned out a little bit
good luck on your search engine
why won't they let you guys change the computers?

Pride, I'd assume. All I know is you dig too deep into the programming or the hardware and you hit on some real nasty failsafes. I've been told if you tinker with one too much it'll explode but I haven't wanted to risk losing my notes and memory log trying to see if it's true.

that's weird
why don't you like ask the fourth or something
you and marco are his groupies right

I don't think he has much say in what the Labs do, on a design level. His connection with them's tenuous at best, or don't you think he'd put his base of operations all in one place? Seems neatest.

I could ask, though. He likes me plenty, I might be able to get something done.

honestly i don't know how any of it works
i try to stay out of
you know
things
seems like i'll just get myself into trouble if i get too involved

That's fair. I'm not going to judge anyone who wants to stay well clear of either god.

[Or at least, he'll only judge privately. So long as Soeki never decides to join up with the Fog God, it's fine.]

I just don't like sitting around on my hands hoping things are going to get better, you know?

speak for yourself
every time i try to take initiative i fuck everything up
for me and everyone around me
doin' my part for ol fourth god, by sitting back and not fucking everything up

[Actually he just doesn't really want to fight that fight, but he recognizes his position, right in the thick of it by living with Marco. He'll make the occasional concession to make himself look sympathetic and not... like some kind of traitor.]

[It's funny. He probably could have written that in his sleep. It's just that the difference between him and Soeki is that he refuses to let past mistakes make him gun-shy, and the jury's still out on whether that's a good or bad thing (at least for him, other people likely have some very definite opinions).]

There's no shame in doing what you know will get the best result just because it's not the noble thing.

[Well, at least for all of Fiddleford's faults, he never specifically summoned a demon?]

believe me, i'm never exactly focused on doing the noble thing
it's better for everyone for me to ride in the back seat so to speak

[No, no, he just helped summon a demon. If only Ford had thought a little more along the lines Soeki does and had taken the safer out Fiddleford tried to give him... but whatever. That doesn't much matter here.]

Your backseat driving got me and Marco to stop waffling around things so you might be on to something.

[Yeah. That's a good plan. Steer this conversation back toward something a little less somber.]

[This is indeed a much better turn of conversation.]

i was getting tired of watching him pine honestly
this is what meddling roommates are for
you crazy kids be happy and use protection now, you hear
