un: Hector

Hey beta team!

It's my birthday on Saturday. Thought it might be fun to have more digital drinks and have a little party in Mac Anu. Meet some more people. Play some games - not the one we're playing obviously lol but party games. You get my drift.

I'll figure out how to get more drinks too. Lol

Anyway. You're all invited. Hope to see you there :-)

It will. Trust me.

At the same time, I wouldn't put it past Hector to punish anyone who rained on his birthday parade.

You have so little faith in me, Yael. Trust me, it'll be fine.

You're too nice. That's your problem.

[Regardless, he can count on Yael to be there. Grumble grumble.]

I've got more whiskey in my inventory.

[ Too nice? Wtf? No one's ever said that about him before. (X) Doubt. So he glosses over that— ]

And you'd better have enough to share.

Of course. Don't make me regret sharing my secret stash.

Promise. I'll even make it up to you.

[ How. He doesn't know. It doesn't matter. ]

OK. I'm holding you to that.

[Not that he trusts Hector not to make it weird, but it is what it is with this guy.]

Trust me =3

[ Immediately makes it weird by using the new emote he learned. Anyway. SEE YOU THERE, YAEL. ]

[hector is a furry...??? noted]

[ leafy actually but close enough ]

So what you're saying is he can handle whatever they throw at him. Makes sense.

With that in mind, are you planning to show up?

Pretty much.

He's not giving much of a choice, is he? I'll hang out for a bit.

I don't see him twisting your arm all that hard anywhere.

[Yael you rolled over like a dog?]

He's twisting it elsewhere. Trust me.

[Silence! Get out of here with your logic and reason!!]

No I'm not?

The plot thickens.

I suspect you two are in cahoots. Though he seemed so serious about the potential for things to go astray...

He's just grumpy like that. You're just gonna have to forgive him.

Though we're not in cahoots lol that would be funny if we were

Then I'll let it slide this time. Nevertheless, he's pretty certain you'll be able to handle whatever trouble gets thrown your way.

That's what you'd say if you weren't working together, too. Perhaps you could split the presents?

Hard to faze me at this point. I can handle it. [ Unsurprisingly, Hector's pretty certain, too! ]

LOL I'll only split the presents if it's his birthday too

[ LITTLE DOES HE KNOW— ]

Maybe it is. That'd explain why he needs to show up even if there's a high chance of trouble.

Try not to crash the game? I'm not sure I buy that the purpose of beta testing is just to see what breaks.

[The logic will continue until the truth comes out!]

Of course he is. That's why you're here giving him more fodder.

Unless you're trying to hide the fact that you're a plant?

A plant? Excuse me?

A plant.

Someone who's been contracted - or had his arm twisted, as it were - to join him in advertising this event by stirring up a little controversy. Hm?

You're not seriously accusing me of being in on this, are you? I don't owe Hector any favors.

[He's gawked at his digital ass on multiple occasions! Yael owes him nothing!!]

It's just speculation. Don't worry about defending yourself so quickly.

I thought your reactions would tell me if I was right or not. And based on what I'm seeing, I think it's more likely he has the upper hand. You did back down really quickly from your concerns about inviting the whole server.
