So you know about Skynet, but I get grief for finding the rest of the sci-fi-gone mad stuff odd? I'll remember that.

[ But he's going with 'serial killer', because he actually knows better. Also? Fuck you. ]

i never said it wasn't "odd". just that the governator is about as likely to turn up as anybody

Yeah, but see, Arnold Schwarzenegger I'd understand. Elvis Presley, Abe Lincoln. But my sanity's gonna draw the line at Buck bloody Rogers by default, and I've gotta have time to adjust. Call it fictional jet-lag.

so instead of sitting back and taking the time to process it all, you thought "fuck it. let's cause shit instead"?

good call

I coulda been here six days or six months, I still wasn't gonna believe it. So you wanna give me shit on that go ahead, but I won't be the last person who thinks it's bullshit.

Hell, I'm still not entirely sure I'm convinced, but the guy seemed like he knew what he was doing, and people believe in him. So what the hell, right?

have you taken a real look around yet? you don't believe what people are saying, fine. but it's pretty fucking hard to fake it this well

I said I'm not entirely convinced. You ever see The Matrix?

[target]

trust me, i've already taken the red pill

[cargojet]

So what is reality? Is Kirk a figment of my imagination, or am I a figment of his?

[target]

this right here? reality. no imagination needed

[cargojet]

And like I said, I'll try to believe that. Right now I'm going for 97% real, because I pinched myself and I didn't wake up, but I'm not quite past this being a telepath fucking with me either. There's all kinds of reasonable explanations that don't end up with me being the first Senator in deep space.

At least 3% worth of doubt.

Fair enough?

[target]

3%. you're getting there

[:| He'll just ignore that Nathan apparently now has less doubts than he does.]

[cargojet]

[ He's being over generous with his numbers to try and impress the fact that he's trying, that's all. ]

Don't see me closing that gap any time soon.

[target]

believing it completely is about as fucked up as not believing it at all

[cargojet]

Thank God we agree on that.

[target]

we agree on something

shoot me now

[cargojet]

Not my thing, I'm afraid. No matter what other people might tell you.

[target]

give it another week and we'll see
