[deference]

From: William T. Spears
Posted: June 19th

Why is the Internet like this?
I am highly disappointed in it.
Surely there is more to it than this.

Everyone can be much better than this.
Much, much better.
Honestly.

And whoever told my god about these cellphones, I would like a word.
Many of them.

Grell Sutcliffe.
I am publicly shaming you for your behavior so that you will cease.
Please stop sending me SO MANY messages.
And no, I do not like any of the emoji.
None of them.
Not one of them.

the internet's not that bad once you get used to it. (´ﾟωﾟ｀*)

[deference]

Stop that.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

stop what? 【・_・?】

[ He's genuinely confused. Does this guy mean the kaomoji? ]

text;

[deference]

Those shapes.
They are unwanted.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

oh. sorry. force of habit.
it's just a little hard to convey emotion over text so the kaomoji help.
i guess they're not your thing, huh?

text;

[deference]

Forgiven.
No.
If you are unable to convey your feelings over text, consider changing your word choice.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

I guess so
You're a pretty formal guy though
Doesn't that stress you out a lot?

text;

[deference]

No.
It stresses me out more to "cut loose," and "go wild."

text;

[hackberrydragon]

I can understand that
Someone's got the be the one to keep their heads on straight
It's William, right?
I'm guessing you just arrived?

text;

[deference]

It is nice to know someone realizes that much.
Even though you use those emoji.
Perhaps, you are not completely useless.

Yes, I am William T. Spears.
And I have just arrived.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

Look, we're not all that incompetent
But thanks... I guess.

I'm Eno, by the way. Tatsuya Enomoto but Eno's a little easier for everyone.
So, which one are you? God or shinki?

text;

[deference]

I am a shinki.

But which name do you prefer?
I am not going to choose a name just because it is easier for others.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

That makes the two of us. I'm a shinki, too.
And Eno's fine. I got used to it and it's kind of homey.
idk how to explain it but yeah

So is it going to be William, Will or Mister Spears?

text;

[deference]

A pleasure to meet you.
Eno, then.

William is preferred. I do not like "Will."

And Mister Spears was my father. Presumably. [ Look your time and patience gives you a joke. ]

text;

[hackberrydragon]

Got it.
Pleasure's all mine, William.

How's the shinki business treating you, apart from all the emoji related business?

text;

[deference]

As you say.

Tiring.
I would have liked it if all my colleagues were focused on work rather than making everyone happy. Sometimes people cannot all be happy in order to do what is right.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

I see what you mean
You're really not one for distractions, huh?
But it's kind of needed at some point, I think. Given the situation.

text;

[deference]

And what situation is that?

text;

[hackberrydragon]

well
you know
the whole "being dead and/or being whisked away to another world and suddenly being expected to do the work of the divine" situation.

text;

[deference]

Running away from the reality of our situation won't make it easier. It'll make it harder.

text;

[hackberrydragon]

I wouldn't call it running away, really
A little distraction every now and then never hurt anybody

[deference]

Where have you been?

[hackberrydragon]

Here?
Nowhere, really.
Around town every now and then. Tokyo's pretty nice.
But I'm not really an outdoor kind of guy.

totally threadjacking hi

[rev13_3]

Where is the button for the small circles?

all the welcome threadjacks!

[hackberrydragon]

I don't really have a button for the small circles
the kaomoji are kind of preset
It comes with the keyboard app I'm using on my phone
