That would be great. Although I do have hands. Should we meet up for that?

[tinflower]

sure. we can hang out? i haven't been in a real city for a long time

[will_chase_balls]

Where did you want to meet up? The city I'm staying in is Palo Alto. I don't know if that's where they put you.

[tinflower]

i'm there too. everyone calls it the crime hub but me and my dads are all heroes. did you get that too?

[will_chase_balls]

I was told it was a crime hub, but apparently I'm supposed to be a villain? I'm not much of a villain, though.

[tinflower]

do you want to pretend to be one? i don't really want to be called a villain or hero

i mean... i guess a hero is better but the costumed stuff is weird

[will_chase_balls]

Sure, I figured I could play the role. Probably will just play the part for reporters, I wasn't going to actually do anything villainous. I'd rather focus on finding the anomaly.

Maybe see if someone assigned the hero role would like to do a dramatic race across the city with me at the end of the month. There could be dramatic banter and we could make up some heroic/villainous reason we're doing it.

[tinflower]

you might be able to figure out something about the anomaly if you play up as a villain. the villains have a headquarters. they're just right there?

but if i hear about anyone with super speed, i'll let you know

[will_chase_balls]

Yeah, I'll hang around the headquarters, see if I hear anything useful.

They won't need super speed. I don't have super speed. I'm thinking more of a regular chase on foot, jumping over obstacles, that kind of thing.

[tinflower]

oh. like a hero/villain obstacle course where you pretend to be battling but you're just having a contest?

is there a prize?

[will_chase_balls]

Yep! And we can play it up like it's an actual thing with dramatic speeches, so people from this world will think we're really battling, but it's just a fun competition.

Yeah, there can be a prize. Do you think like...a big chunk of deer meat is a good prize?

[tinflower]

i guess it depends on the person you're racing. i would eat deer meat? if it was a good piece of deer meat

but a lot of people are picky. you two could talk about a prize

[will_chase_balls]

I'll talk about that when I know who I'm racing, but I don't have a lot of stuff to give away, so the prize will probably be deer meat no matter what their answer is.

[tinflower]

[ That makes Gorgug think for a moment. ]

you have deer meat on you right now?

[will_chase_balls]

I put it in the ice box, so it's not in my pocket or anything like that, but yes.

[tinflower]

oh

that's cool. how long does the meat last in it? is it a non magical ice box?

[will_chase_balls]

I'm pretty sure it's magic because it stays cold even though there's no actual ice in it.

How long the meat stays good in in depends. The top part is colder than the bottom part, and it freezes if I put it in the top part, so it'll stay good for pretty long there. The bottom part is cool enough to keep it good for a few days, though.

I think someone called it a 'fridge'?

[tinflower]

...can you show me a pic of it?

[ Because now he doesn't know if it's a cooler box or an actual fridge!! ]

[will_chase_balls]

Sure!

[He sends a picture that is very clearly the refrigerator in his apartment.]

[tinflower]

[ That's a refrigerator.

...

Gorgug thinks about this for a second. ]

those are good if you stick them to one place. but they don't stay cold if you take the black wires in the back out. not for long

do you want one that stays cold that you can take around?

[will_chase_balls]

Yeah! That sounds useful.

[tinflower]

i want to go to a camping store to find stuff for my van. we can find one and i can fix a cooler so it does that.

we can talk about the mission too

[will_chase_balls]

That sounds good. Especially the mission part, because I've been trying to figure out how to look for an anomaly and so far I haven't had any good ideas.

Do you want to meet at the camping store, then?

[tinflower]

it's pretty hard. i hate when there's stuff to investigate on a mission.

and yeah. i found one. give me your phone no and i can send directions on it

[ He's going to send them to a Rei store!! ]

Do you want me to put up a post for this?

[will_chase_balls]

[He sends over his phone number.]

Thanks!
