After much consideration,

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

After much consideration,

After much consideration, thought, and boredom (mostly boredom, boredom, l tell you), l've decided to bring back my old alternative ego, Silvery Ink. 

Why, you might ask.

Because, l shall answer, it gets kind of lonely when you are curled around your beat-up laptop in the dead of night filling your ears and your mind and your very soul with rock music to forget the darkness slowly closing in around you, to forget that the light at the end of the tunnel is slowly, slowly, fading, as does the chance that you'll ever mean anything in this cold world, to forget that your heart is locked up inside you and untochable. 

That, my friend, is why.

Now, if l was normal, either l or Silvery would introduce her, aruge in italics, and go on with our lives. 

Since when have l, or anyone for that matter, been normal?  

Never, that's what l say.

l doubt that.

That's my sarcasm, thank you very much, now give it back right now. 

Have your sarcasm and eat it too!

Sarcasm tastes quite unplesent, something like....like--

Being alone? Letting your darkness seep around you the night wears on?

Pretty much.

We're getting off track, are we not? l do feel better having myself to aruge with. l must be on my way. *tips hat and bows*

Doubtless you have better things to do then read nonsense......Adieu.

*turns around*

Okay, just making sure.

Hey Silvery! I've missed you! I was never actually sure where you'd gone, but I figured after all this time you must've fallen in a spike pit or a volcano or something. I guess not.

Glad to see you back!

And, uh, Shadow... if you ever need any help with that loneliness and meaningless feeling and whatever else, we're here. I feel it too sometimes. Actually a lot of the time. I try not to let it out, because people never understand. (Unless that was some kind of really morbid joke I didn't pick up on, in which case, forget I said anything.)

Don't look  now, but l'm currently reading over your shoulder and breathing down your neck. 

Wait! Don't turn your head. l'm telling you, just don't.  

Also, the whole melodramatic thing was a joke, though l do really feel like that sometimes. 

And falling into spike pits once and a while certainly doesn't hurt, one might even say it's a.....stabbing experience. By the way, how/where is Spyro? Haven't seen him in a while.....

Spyro is fine (well, relatively). He's getting a bit chubby, so I tried to encourage him to adapt a no-donut diet for a couple weeks. You can probably guess how that worked out.

Like HOB said... If you ever need support, we are here for you. That is, if that part was not a joke. We all have been there with that feeling, even the happiest of people. So, just remember, we are here for you.

And welcome back, Silvery! I should say, "Hello" because I never seen you before.

Ahh, salutations, my friend, Silvery Ink. I am Quill, a terminology expert, and classically trained through hundreds of scholastic, university-level books relating to-

Errr... Quill. That might be bringing it too far. Take it from the pro:

Bro, welcome back! Haven't seen you around here in a long time.

You have never seen Silvery before, Zeon. So it is the wrong way to greet.

RIGHT. Let me restart: Hello, bro! Do you like surfing? Or video games? Maybe some Cheetos? Annoying girls? Anything along those awesome lines?

How do you know Silvery Ink is a boy?
I don't know. I just figure AEs like annoying other AEs. Besides Quill.

Obviously.

We should go now. Nice having you back, Silvery Ink! And please forgive Quill and Zeon. They are usually... calmer. Nicer. But Zeon is the best around, he is great at making people feel at home.

*Snorts* l am neither your nor anyone else's "bro". But to answer your questions, l like none of the above. Especially the annoying girls. l happen to know one--

Excuse me.

Yes, l meant you. We like annoying everyone, do we not? l am ever pleased to meet you, Quill and Zeon.

I've never seen Silvery either, but welcome back!

And like they said, we're here to help with the loneliness and things. Need support? Come to the Chatterbox. We are here for you.

Silvery existed on the Chatterbox for a few months last summer :) Also, most of that was a joke. Please never take anything l say seriously.

Oh, okay. :) And I wasn't here last summer.

Yay! Silvery Ink! I'm so excited! I knew she existed because I read part of the Hotel Le'faye business. I meant to ask you if she could come to my ski lodge. But I didn't. So she's back now.

Cool! Welcome back Silvery Ink!

Puck: *Appears suddenly, throws an itching powder bomb, then disappears*

Me: That's Puck, one of my AE's. She welcomes you back to the CB too.

Greetings, Silvery Ink. I like your name. 

Hello! I think you already know who I am. Nova, the robotic AE thingy whose name hauntingly resembles that of her CBer.

Okay, she's trying to impress your not-so-normal AE with her drama.

Sadly, my CBer doesn't know much about that sort of stuff, she is always very crazy and happy.

*quietly scoffs and then gives a small laugh* Well, adieu Silvery.

*waves hankerchief*

Hooray! Technically speaking, I've never met Silver, but I've seen a couple of posts with her. So, welcome back, Silver!

OH HEY, SILVER! YOU USED TO HATE ME!

(awkward silence. Baelfire whimpers. MP slowly pulls out pie, pushes it gently onto Silvery's face, and teleports away)

h-hi... i'm bae... remember... bye 

(Baelfire makes a nervous cat noise despite not being a cat and flees)

l did......?

*Frowns, trying to remember*

Oh wait, that's right! l hate you! GET BACK HERE, GOOD FOR NOTHING PIE-THROWER.

(Hello Bae. l see your cat side is getting the better of you. l always knew you were a cat.) 

Apparently you're forgotten that one time they tired to kill you something.

What?

Not sayin' anything more.

Oh, hello, Silvery. I do remember you. I recall Shadow signed you up for my camp story, and soon after that you disappeared into oblivion. Perhaps I shall look into giving you a larger part now. Pretty name too. Mandy, Critic, and Hobbes say hello.
