No shitty, fake dreams today! I guess all you night-sleepers are going to be off the hook, too. And even better, after it got dark I went looking for more supplies, and I'm coming back with aaaaaaaall the loot!

[all the loot, in this case, appears to be a very large tub-like container filled with green slime that she's pushing in front of her, and... a big plastic bag overflowing with about fifty Magic 8-Balls that she's dragging behind her]

Look at all these oracles! I found a couple lying around, and so I spent a few hours digging around for more and came up with the rest. Getting this stuff back without being able to captchalogue it is going to suck, but it's worth it. Isn't it?

[Vriska reaches into the bag and pulls out one of the 8-Balls, shaking it and then peering at the answer window]

... "Signs point to no". Well, fuck you too, then!

[and she smashes it on the ground and continues on her way]

[she holds up one of the balls-- the same one she tested with Juliet, and asks it the question]

"Yes-- definitely".

I guess tomorrow I'll find out whether or not this one's defective!

[Her thoughts exactly. That answer will be easy to check.]

If we can at least get the weather forecast this way, I reckon it's not completely useless.

What about the green stuff over there?

Sopor slime! For sleeping in. It puts you into a deeeeeeeep and dreamless sleep, so it actually would have been even more useful last week!

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Indeed. It would.

Where did you find that?

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

The Junkyard. Where else? You have no fucking idea how much I'm looking forward to actually getting good day's sleep.

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Probably just as much as I'm looking forward to sleeping at night.

More. I haven't had a recuperacoon since I got here.

[Raven notices the strange words but doesn't point it out since, so far, they're easy enough to understand. Plus she's been living with Starfire, she's used to dealing with people speaking a bit "differently".]

How often do you usually need to rest?

[Video]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Depends! If we really have to we can go a few days or more without sleep, but usually we sleep every day.

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

But not during the night, is that it?

[Video]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Yup! Most of us, anyway.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Just how many of you are there here by the way?

[Video]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Four, I think!

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

You're not sure?

A couple left. I don't think any more have come since Equius, but I have more important things to do than keep tabs on trolls.
