So are these things supposed to change like this, or do I have some kinda "lame disease-itis"?

[As Veser asks the question, he's turning left and right, frowning while he looks into a mirror and examines the black glyph on his upper left arm which has a faint magenta outline to it.]

'Cos last I checked, this thing was just pure black.

[eternallove]

Maybe they're some sort of level indicator? That changes when you get stronger in a certain way.

And yours is really nice Mister.

[Flonne. No. Stop.]

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

It's a curse. You are about to die in a week or so. Did you watch any weird videos and then received a phonecall?

[wrex_it_krogan]

Don't know, but I'm starting to like it.

[Check out his big ass glyph.]

[Video]

[symmetriphiliac]

From my understanding, it changes based on your relationship with the FirstForged it represents.

[video]

[glacius_passio]

Don't really know for sure what causes it, but mine changed like that not too long ago.

[She turns her arm enough to show the blue gylph, now with a black outline.]

[audio]

[adamndoctor]

Yes. This is apparently completely normal. No need to consult your doctor.

[lovethathatch]

Huh. Then it's broken or somethin', 'cos I don't feel stronger at all.

Oh, uh... Thanks. Then again, it's mine, so it should look awesome.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Ha ha, very funny. Only videos I've watched features your mom in 'em.

...Or whatever the hell you guys have that are close enough to moms, I dunno.

[A for effort, Veser.]

[lovethathatch]

[Thaaaaaat is a big ass glyph. Veser whistles.]

Daaaamn, dude. What kinda favors did you have to do for that?

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Oh. Then, uh, what's with the outline?

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Hey, we almost kinda match. Sorta.

[Not really.]

But, uh apparently, it's some kinda weird thing to do with the First-Forged? I dunno.

[Audio]

[lovethathatch]

That was kinda rhetorical -- not like my doctor's here for me to ask. But, uh, thanks.

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

[Pat yourself on the back, veser.] unless you count Primus we have nothing like that.

My, my such a rude boy. You were nicer to me when I was a she-human.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Well, then -- whoa, wait.

[What did he just say? Color Veser mildly perplexed.]

...She-human?

[wrex_it_krogan]

Hell if I know. The Forged never tell anyone anything, just like a bureaucracy would.

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

Yes. Is was a red head, does that bring any bell? [Knock Out is trying really hard not to smirk.]

[Audio]

[adamndoctor]

Ah, yes, that is where my humor fell flat.

Believe me, I know they're not.

Seeing as I'm the only human doctor here on this planet.

[Video]

[glacius_passio]

Kind of, but reversed.

[She smiles slightly.]

I guess that would make sense. I wonder if it can change completely...?

[The last is mostly said to herself as she looks down at her glyph again.]

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Like, completely change color or shape or whatever? Dude, as freaky as it is, that would be awesome! It's like a shape-shifting tattoo.

[Audio]

[lovethathatch]

You serious? Huh. Your job must suck.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

[Veser had kinda narrowed it down even before Knock Out mentioned the red hair thing.

The most he can do is chuckle nervously.]

...You're totally fucking with me right now, right? Ha ha, very funny, you can knock it off now.

[lovethathatch]

So they're the "seen, not heard" kind of shifty fucks, huh? Go figure.

[wrex_it_krogan]

More like seen and no one knows what the hell they're saying kind.

[lovethathatch]

Huh. That sounds like pretty much every teacher I've ever had.

[wrex_it_krogan]

Tell me about it.

Sometimes experience is the best teacher.

[deadlydoctor]

[Smart guy.

Knock Out's smirk would split his head in two if it got any wider.] Watch out, I learned a trick.

[Video] 2/2

[deadlydoctor]

[Anddddd~he activate his new holoform.] Hi.

[Audio]

[adamndoctor]

Fortunately, not many humans here.

Unfortunately, the few here can be a handful.

[Video]

[glacius_passio]

Something like that. I assume that if it can get a different color outline by itself, it might be able to completely change its color or shape.

[She grins.]

You're way more excited than I am. I think it's kind of weird, since I have no idea how it works.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

I mean, yeah, it's weird, but better this junk that can change around than some kinda shitty mom tribute that you gotta walk around with for the rest of your life.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

[Ohhhhhhhh shit. Veser's eyes widen at the sight of the familiar lady now on the screen.]

...Fuck.

[WHY IS HE STILL HOT.]

[lovethathatch]

Heh... you're preachin' to the choir, dude.

[Although there are some things he'd rather he hadn't experienced.]

[Audio]

[lovethathatch]

Hah. Sorry in advance. Then again, I should be gettin' less banged up here, so maybe I'm sayin' sorry for nothing. Whatever.

[Video]

[glacius_passio]

[Leviathan opens her mouth to reply, pauses for a moment, then closes it while she thinks over what Veser just said.]

I...I'm sorry, but I just have to ask. What does that mean, exactly?

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

[Don't hate KO for being this pretty. Some people just have talent for handsomeness.]

Sorry, I might look human but I don't think we can do that.

[DAMN RIGHT HE IS.]

[Audio]

[adamndoctor]

Much appreciated either way. Just stick to not going out of your way to hurt yourself, and I doubt we'll have the "pleasure" of running into one another often.

[Audio]

[lovethathatch]

No promises.

...Oh dude, I just realized I don't know who you are. So who the hell are ya?

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Y'know, those super lame and tacky tattoos that are just hearts with "MOM" written in the middle of 'em?

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

[kdafjsdaf]

Th... that's not what I meant, dude!!

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out makes the holoform dissapear. Have a handsome robot again.]

I'm not a dude, you know. I'm not actually anything that would fit in one of you absurd human categories.

So, what did you mean? I'm curious.

[Video]

[glacius_passio]

I can't say I've ever seen one of those before. But tattoos like that weren't as popular back on my world.

[Audio]

[adamndoctor]

Well, where are my manners?

Leonard McCoy. Feel free just to call me McCoy. And I'm not sure I caught your name. I'm still getting used to the weird names used here. [Chromedome? Seriously? Weird.]

[Audio]

[lovethathatch]

McCoy, gotcha. Hope you don't mind gettin' another sorta weird one. Name's Veser Hatch.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Probably a good thing, bad tattoos like that are a pain in the ass to get rid of.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

It's a swear. Like "holy shit I've just made a huge ass of myself" compacted in one little word.

So if you're just a giant robot all the time, what was up with the... human chick thing?

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

I could give you a list of people I've meet that took even more absurd decisions but it would be longer than my arm.

This is my real appearance but when we met I suffered from a...well, I have no idea. I was suddenly a fleshie. It was awful.

[Video]

[lovethathatch]

Well, on my list, flirtin' with a chick who turns out to actually be a giant robot dude is pretty high up.

So not only do we have this whole "multiple universe" shit to deal with, but also randomly getting turned into things and ghosts and whatever?
