[ Ange never really feels the need to broadcast anything over the journals, as anti-social as she is and all. But today she's perhaps feeling a bit more bored or a bit more annoyed than usual, probably because of some recent arrivals. So she has actually taken the effort to speak up for once now, her voice as flat and deadpan as it always is. ]

So, people here.. how much longer are you planning on wasting your time here? Don't get me wrong, it's not like I have found any way out either, but I doubt spending our time here with parties and all sorts of similar ridiculous things is going to help us in any way. Don't tell me all of you have grown so used to this place that you're just complacent with the situation as it is now.

[ Sorry, Luceti, she's a bit of a party pooper indeed. What is having fun. ]

I definitely have no plans of sticking around here if I'd be given the choice. I have better things to do than wasting my time around here.. unlike some other people, apparently. [ a very slight sigh. ]

So I guess in the end it comes down to this.. do any of you honestly want to stick around in this bothersome place and party your days away? I suppose I'm actually a little genuinely curious.

[ It looks like she's going to cut it off right there and then, but she seems to think of something as she starts a filter instead. ]

On a different note.. if anyone has advice for avoiding certain people, I'd like to hear it.

[ A bitter edge creeps into her tone as she speaks on. ] This place has a rather crude sense of humor as to who gets to arrive or leave here.

Now you're speaking my kind of language. If you manipulate people into doing the work for you, that just isn't right, is it? They're just human too, after all.

Compared to that building a bond sounds like more effort, but it's probably better.

[ignitethesky]

But to the one doing the manipulating, those below them are nothing but puppets to be used and discarded at will.

When you think about it in terms of which requires more effort, it boils down to which you would prefer: shaky alliances built on coercion and lies that can crumble easily or strong ones which support each other and stand firm, not because they were coerced but because they want to.

[repudiate]

Speaking from experience, I can say being used as a puppet or piece isn't exactly a pleasant experience at all.

And yeah, if you put it like that anyone would pick the latter, right?

[ignitethesky]

Speaking from experience, I agree. It's why I prefer to avoid sinking to that level.

Not always. Some prefer to to do things the fastest and dirtiest ways possible, and should it mean stabbing another in the back at a later date, so be it.

[repudiate]

... Hmph. I guess I was trying to leave people like that out of the question here, but.. yeah, I know there's plenty of people around like that too.

I personally already know too much people who thrive off betraying and hurting others.

[ignitethesky]

Sadly, they're everywhere.

All in all, though, should you want help in uncovering the means through which to leave this place, I would be happy to offer assistance.

[repudiate]

Sounds good to me. I already know some other people who want to work towards finding a way out of this place, so maybe if we all combine our work we might be able to actually do it if the group and effort is big enough.
