So...how does everybody do it? One minute, I'm pretty sure I'm going to be zombie food and the next minute, I'm waking up next to my roomate's, who's probably OCD but different story, bed. Like nothing happened. I have practice and classes that I can't miss and I'm supposed to go on like it's all normal.

So, how do you deal with it? Handling this crazy stuff and your real life?

After a certain point "this crazy stuff" becomes your real life.

I think Azula mostly has it. It's just something you have to adjust to, I suppose.

Though you've already heard my life is a bit crazy on its own.

I find taking a break to breathe when it's appropriate to be most helpful. Do you get some time off from your classes and practice?

But you have a life outside, right?

That's just worse, right? You're in the middle of some important work, and then boom, you're suddenly a bird.

Sadly, no. I didn't realize there was so much practice. I'm barely making it to classes without weird zombie attacks.

Or a college student, even. And I'm only vaguely sure what college is. But yes.

There are some things that can't be fixed. Not now, anyway. Sometime, perhaps... but I have things here and now to think about, even if the community tries to drag me away.

Drag away? Is that ever a good thing? It sounds like you have some pretty serious stuff going on.

No, not really. But it's not something I can do anything about at the moment.

Of course. But this place is irrevocably intertwined with it.

So, what do you do when internet world interferes with your real one? I know we can't stop it but people deal somehow, right?

Well, there goes that hope. It'd be nice to end up in a vacation resort in Hawaii instead.

Frankly, that's probably at least as likely as something like what we've just been through. If not more.

The vacation? Then let's hope for that one. Sounds nice, right about now.

Yes, it really does.

Any chance there's a petition we can sign? I'm for that.

Not yet. I don't know, maybe we can start one. It probably couldn't hurt.

Any nice places in your world? Somewhere warm, quiet, and non-life threatening.

Mm. Nothing we could get away with community members coming to really comes to mind. It's the 'non-life-threatening' bit that's the problem. I've only really ever seen bits and pieces of the Empire, and they don't... deal well with outsiders.

The rest of the world is probably better, but I'm not in a position to make recommendations.

An island called Hawaii comes to mind here, maybe the Caribbean. Both of them have nice beaches, lots of sun, the usual vacation-y things.

Those do sound nice. We'd have to find at least somebody who can worldhop, though.

And time to do it. I was gone for days in that mall and nobody blinked an eye. It was like it happened while I slept.

The community has been known to play with time, even apart from viruses. I'm fairly certain time is moving more quickly in the community than it is in my world, but it's not a consistent thing.

So, if we used a world hop, would that slow time down for us?

That really depends on the virus, assuming you're talking about viruses. Most people of import know about the community, anyway.
