Ray is a fuel source in my mech. The situation is very complicated.
Yu
"Hey guys, uh, Ray is a fuel source in my mech. The situation is very complicated....."
Memetical_Cargo
"Haha."
Memetical_Cargo
"Hahahahaha!"
Cowboy
"Don't explode dude. Stop. Go through the process. Don't accuse off the bat."
Memetical_Cargo
"Yu, why did you do that to Ray?"

"I'll be firmly honest. I did it because it was an option and it was an invasive thought."
Yu
"I'll be honest. I did it because it was an option and it was an invasive thought."
Memetical_Cargo
"YOUR INVASIVE THOUGHT WAS TO USE A MAN AS A FUEL SOURCE?!?"
Cowboy
"Perfectly normal thing to do, Cargo. If it was anyone but Ray I'd do the same."
Yu
"Anyone but Ray?"
Memetical_Cargo
"Ray is-"
Cowboy
"Powered by fire, which is something you couldn't have known, Yu, so don't worry about it."
Memetical_Cargo
"Why were you so close to Ray, huh? You weren't say, talking to him or something, were you?"
Yu responds....

Wait for Cowboy to counterpoint. He's been pretty good at controlling the situation so far.

"IS CAZKADE LIKE A WOMAN????? I THOUGHT THEIR GENDER WAS SAILOR, WHICH IS MASCULINE LEANING."
Cowboy
"Ok but considering who made Naut, sailor in this context is like, woman leaning."

"Ray is like a terrible machine that seeks out women. Hunts them down. Writes a hundred notes about them, all under the ruse of "helping them" and "taking population censuses!" He puts bands on their legs, like they're migratory animals to track the health of!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Cowboy
"Calm down Cargo, it's fine. Yu didn't know anything."
Memetical_Cargo
"This is LITERALLY step by fucking STEP what someone would do if they wanted to upset me SPECIFICALLY! I don't believe this cutesy act of "Woopsy, I fucking made friends with that shithead you told me not to, and then I accidentally made the machine that you didn't want to be involved with my character's entire fucking existence!!!!" This is specifically targeted at me. This isn't a mistake!"
Cowboy
"Except it is. I promise you, Yu doesn't know anything about you, and wouldn't hurt you at all, got it? It's just a series of random events."
Cowboy
"Yu, sorry, seems you accidentally walked into this. Is it ok if we just toss the machine into the bottom of the ocean? You can start over."

"Was an hour of video game progress worth ruining a friendship?"
Was it worth it?

Don't say anything.
Yu
Yu doesn't say anything, knowing anything they said in this moment would be "The wrong thing."
Cowboy
"Remember what I said? I don't want you being rude at other people, but when it's just you and me, it's like, whatever man. I already know how you get some pretty nasty thoughts in your head. Better to let it out when it's at someone who can just deflect it than when it's someone who is actually going to be affected by it."
Was it worth it?

"Can't we say the same for Cargo? He's willing to throw away friendship because he can't handle something I'm doing in a video game."
Yu
"Can't we say the same for Cargo? He's willing to throw away friendship because he can't handle something I'm doing in a video game."
Cowboy
"No. It's not. But I can see how you would think that. The difference here is that this just isn't about you doing something in a video game. If you completely didn't know about Ray, then I would argue for you, but Cargo is upset because the dude asked you to please not do that, and you did. They guy even respected, after a little bit of shaking down, that you want to play the game alone for a little while."

"Maybe if this mech was your life work or something and we walked in demanding you get rid of it, yeah, that'd be fucked up. We'd have to consider compromises or maybe starting another session to leave this one with you, but like, you gotta see it from his, I mean Cargo's point of view."
Cowboy
"Like, imagine if you told Cargo you loved and wanted to meet Helios, and then later you found out that Cargo in that time span had killed Helios. Like......maybe Helios attacked the guy, but just seeing the event, you wouldn't know, you'd get a little upset, right? Yeah, sure, cause Helios is dead, but because you would think that Cargo didn't even try to not avoid the problem for your sake."

"I wasn't thinking, I promise! I didn't mean to do something mean, but Ray was nice and he had metal for me. I knew I shouldn't have but I just wanted to make progress. Maybe I thought I could just not talk about what happened but then I keep making stupid impulsive choices, and when he accused me of doing this on purpose, I just....I got mad because I was embarrassed."
Yu
"Because I felt stupid. Only a stupid person would make this mistake."
Yu
"I just rather people leave me alone instead of watch me make mistakes that hurt them!"
Cowboy
"Yeah, it sucks hardcore when you keep stepping on folks toes over and over, then when they finally crack, you just look back at all the shit you've done and you feel bad, but then your brain gets all twisted, cause it thinks "Bad people do bad things so they have to be accusing me of being a bad person if they're doing this." so it totally goes into defense mode. Especially cause Cargo has issues the guy is working out, so bro isn't very good at asking people to stop."

"I'm sorry I ruined everything, and now we have to stop playing, and it just means I'll be alone again, and I can't even stop focusing on how I feel for a second, even right now, to say sorry correctly!"
Cowboy
"We'll stop playing if you stop playing."
Yu
"We, Cargo's still playing?"
Cowboy
"I mean, well, the dude is currently freaking out about how many leg bands the bro has, but I think I can get Cargo to chill and rationalize things one on one."
Cowboy
"Sort of like what we're doing now."
Cowboy
"But only if you want to keep playing."

"Why does Cargo have leg bands?"
Yu
"Why does Cargo have leg bands?"
Cowboy
"Leg bands are normal! I have two, most people I know have at least one. It just makes everything flow a lot easier. They're non invasive, and easy to hide!"
Cowboy
"I mean, you don't have any leg bands because you're, you know, you. Cargo's moved around a lot, so the guy has more interest, and thus more bands to track extra details."
Cowboy
"Obviously Cargo is paranoid about having so much information on the bands but really, no one else judges you for having bands. I mean, come on...who is looking at a person's feet anyway, that's weird."
The bands are.....

You wish you had a legband. Why didn't you get one...?

There's a long pause before Cowboy posts again, as if he had to stop to think.

Cowboy
"Yeah! Just gotta keep track of them so you can move supplies to other places if tons of people move, or if there's a particular or rare type of person you can keep a watch on them!"
Yu
"Hmmmmm...Thinking about it, where did all the birds go, Cowboy? I haven't seen very many even when I've uncovered my window. There used to be a lot more birds around my house."
Cowboy
"Ah, well, I'll be honest dude, and don't freak out about this."

"But the birds got scared. Most of them left, or they got really hopeless about everything and gave up on living there."
Yu
"You did too, right?"
Cowboy
"Uh, no, I left because of personal reasons, and because I just wanted to see new shit."
Cowboy
"There's a lot of fun shit to do on other islands. I mean your island too, just, I've lived there my whole life, it just wasn't vibing with me anymore."

Tell Cowboy you love them. But then correct yourself and that you confuse friendship for love. You think. You only feel this way about Cowboy. Ok this is getting stressful, nevermind.
