 Hello, my name is Elfnein and I'm looking for someone that is able to buy the energy drinks that are available. Of course I will reimburse you for the points used to buy them, if you're willing to help you can talk to me or Romeo. Thank you!

First, is that a KID'S body? And second, if that were true you wouldn't need energy drinks to suppress the need to sleep!

[alchemists]

My body would technically be that of a child's given the age that Carol modeled all of the back ups as....

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Right, exactly, and that's what I'm saying. Where's your figure quoted from? Because I bet it doesn't apply to you.

[alchemists]

It's mainly applied on adults...

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Exactly.

Look, sometimes crap happens you don't have control over. Like being here. Or, uh, being a book. Overworking yourself and doing dumb things won't solve anything. You gotta accept where you are and what you can do before you start achieving your goals.

[alchemists]

I just can't sit back and sleep or not do any work though, even if I'm a child. Resting wouldn't be a good use of the time I was given!

[badassfreakingoverlord]

No one's saying to do that! There's a middle ground between "not enough sleep" and "doing nothing", you know!

Seriously. Kid. Elfnein. [How often does Zetta actually address her or her shinki by name, anyway? Directly to her?] You know better. Come on.

[alchemists]

I don't want to waste the body and time I was given. Even if I try and sleep I feel guilty about it.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Then straighten out your head. NOT taking care of yourself is wasting your body and time. WRECKING your body is wasting it.

You want to show appreciation for what you have? Then freaking live.

[alchemists]

[ Zetta has a very good point and Elfnein doesn't really have a come back for that logic. ]

ok...

[badassfreakingoverlord]

[Even Zetta, once in a while, knows what's up.]

[And he still can't believe HE's the one who keeps having to parent these smol children.]

And let me tell you. Living life well doesn't change whether you get three years or thirty-five thousand.

[alchemists]

If I wanted thirty-five thousand I would need to do what Carol did with clones...

[ Which isn't going to happen ]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Naw, there are lots of other ways! I'm that old and I didn't do any cloning crap. [Only one Zetta could exist; the cosmos couldn't handle more!]

[alchemists]

What way did you use?

[badassfreakingoverlord]

A pretty typical way for us Overlords -- I'm too strong for Death to take.

[alchemists]

But Death isn't a person... or it might be in your world I guess?

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Uh, sure it is. No one ever told you about the Grim Reaper or stuff like that?

[Man, her education is just so lacking!]

[alchemists]

I know about the Grim Reaper, but it's just part of different folk tales regarding death and the afterlife.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

How poorly they educate you. Well, if any of my Prinnies earn their way out of Prinnydom and we get a red moon, I'll see if I can show you.

[alchemists]

I'll make sure to take plenty of notes when the time comes.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Nerd. [But man, Zetta can't even manage to sound scornful. Honestly he's just stating the facts...]
