Eleanor Lamb

Hello you've reached Eleanor Lamb's voicemail. I'd explain what's next but I can't imagine you don't know what to do at the beep.

It might not be something obvious, like each of us sees pieces of the same story. There may be something else that they're all tied to, even if I'll be honest and say I don't quite know what that could be just yet. Still, we might not be looking at this the right way yet.

[notyourutopian]

If we all have different pieces of different stories...
I don't even know what that would mean.

Maybe it'll start making sense eventually.

[true_noir]

It would mean that what binds us together is not the stories, but something in the here and now. That, at least, is what it says to me.

[notyourutopian]

Hm.

I guess that's more optimistic than I can usually manage.

[true_noir]

I will admit that I do not necessarily think that what I just said was optimistic. It could be a dark fate we're all tied to, but I would like it to be positive.

[notyourutopian]

It implies bonds, at least.
That we aren't just spinning our heals in our own little circles.

So that's something.

[true_noir]

And it is something that depends upon us, not upon whatever comes from what they are doing to us. I suppose this whole thing has made it easier to form those bonds, a little.

What do we do with them, though, other than opposing or seeking answers?

[notyourutopian]

No idea.

Pizza party?

[true_noir]

You know, that isn't a terrible idea. At the very least, getting together is not a bad thing. Perhaps a party would be relaxing?

[notyourutopian]

We should make retrospec pay for it somehow.

[true_noir]

Well, they funded that blasted idea for a beauty pageant. Why shouldn't they at least consider it this time? It's worth a shot, if you ask me.

[notyourutopian]

Think they'll fund something that isn't humiliating?

[true_noir]

There are only so many humiliating things in this world. They are bound to find something almost inoffensive to support at some point when they are bound. Process of elimination.

[notyourutopian]

That's a fun thought.
Anyway, I should finish my homework.

[true_noir]

Yes, I will leave you to it. Give me a call sometime, Eleanor. But in the meantime, have a nice evening.
