misfire.

[priyatel]

I'm just saying Spam isn't that bad after you've been eating nothing but military rations for a month!

[collapsar]

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure there's never been a good time to eat Spam.

[priyatel]

after a few months in a trench, you'll change your mind on that.

forgive my delay!! ♡

[collapsar]

Spent a week in a trench. We'd meant to hop to 2917 but got the century wrong. Couldn't get the taste of mud out of my mouth for ages.

misfire!

[startedtheflamewar]

Okay, if you could go anywhere right now, where would you go?

[collapsar]

Anywhere? Right into the middle of a nice, hot bathtub, if I'm being honest.

[startedtheflamewar]

That does sound nice. The showers aren't much for relaxation.

Makes me miss the hot springs when we all had to pretend to be Davey Crockett.

forgive me, notifs were lost!

[collapsar]

Pretend to be? Some sort of elaborate roleplay or were you practicing for a play?

it's all good!

[startedtheflamewar]

Very elaborate. We were stuck in cabins for a month.

Or did you manage to miss that part of the trip?

[collapsar]

Oh, is this where everyone was stranded?

Heard about that. Missed it entirely.
Didn't show up on the ship until after that.

I have a terrible habit of running late.
Terrible quirk for a time traveler.

[startedtheflamewar]

If you're a time traveler, can't you just say you intended to come when you did? No one will be the wiser.

It wasn't all bad, but I did miss running water, in the end.

[collapsar]

Alright, I intended to come when I did. Does saying it after you did count as cheating?

But enough travel and you do realize the luxury in running water. Turns out a lot of planets are lacking.
Even worse when all you want is to make a good cup of tea.

[startedtheflamewar]

Maybe, but who's going to know if you've got a good poker face?

I hope the tea on the ship isn't too lacking for you.

misfire

[angelpiratebaby]

Don't get mad at me because I don't like your horns. How do you keep your head up?

notifs were lost! sorry ♡

[collapsar]

They're not horns. They're unbrushed bangs. No need to be rude about it.

no worries at all

[angelpiratebaby]

What? You don't have bangs, Loki.

[collapsar]

Oh. No, no. Not Loki.

Is someone really named Loki? Does that actually happen?

[angelpiratebaby]

Yes, that is his name. If you are asking because you've heard the myths about us, he is that Loki.

misfire! | un: harkness

why is the spice girls becoming a grocery store demographic the thing that manages to make me feel old?

i had lost my inbox notifs, sorry!!

[collapsar]

Wait, is that really a thing that's happening? With time travel, you expect them to always be in their prime.

no worries! dreamwidth has been such a notif eater lately.

It's happening — or was, given the whole anomaly-napped thing we've got going on here. They're now regulated to grocery stores and throwback stations and "I Love the 90s" specials on VH1. To be fair, I didn't even know who they were until I actually lived through the 1990s. Guess their music didn't survive the tests of time to still be popular in my time.

[collapsar]

Shame, I always did like them.
And I don't even do much pop music, but they got me through some tough teenage years.
Better than the boy bands, anyway. I do hate boy bands.

They're not still popular in your time, are they?

[category]

Hate to break it to you, but we still have boy bands in the 51st Century.
