E-mail to Dionicio


Recommended Posts

Dionicio, dude, I am SO sorry.

 

I knew you were up there in that cell, but I didn't want to bother until I had cleaned out the riffraff, you know? I thought, I'll go get him when I'm ready to take on the Big Guy. I swear, man, that was my plan. But when it came time to go in for the kill, I just, like, totally blanked, you know? I mean, it's not like I forgot about you. Hey, how could I forget you after all we've through together, bro? It's just that, well, you being up there and all ready and raring to help me out just kind of...slipped my mind.

 

You know how sometimes you get up and go to the kitchen, and then you're like, what did I come in here for? And you end up doing something completely different? LOL Yeah, it was just like that. Except in this case, the fate of both our nations was at stake. So anyway, somehow I managed to take out Dork-ass (LOL) without your help (although, of course, it would have been a LOT easier if I had your help, cause I know you totally rock in a tight spot, dude), and then, just as I'm about to leave, I go "Oh, sh*t! Dionicio!" And I run upstairs and throw open the cell door...and you're, like, gone.

...

So I'm thinking, whoa, I hope he got out all right and isn't, like, totally pissed off at me, but then I walk outside and it's, like, this horde is charging the fortress, and there's General Redmark with that totally '90s beard of his and all hell breaks out and then everything was, like, completely insane for, like, three months, and all the time (I swear) I'm thinking, "I gotta find out what happened to Dionicio."

 

So, dude, are you alive or what?

 

Are you, like, totally pissed? Because I would understand if you are, man, completely. I'd be pissed off, too. But, hey, you're the king of irony right? I'm sure you can appreciate the irony here, because, it's, like, totally ironic, isn't it? I mean, there you are, with some kickass spells, all ready to help and all, and I, like, go in without you. It's kinda funny, when you think about it. I think some day we'll all look back on this and laugh.

 

So, no hard feelings?

 

Drop me a line when you find time, dude. Oh, note the new e-mail address. Yeah, I know. "m-pire_hero1@empire.go.em" Totally gay, I know, but I've got an image to keep up. You know how it is.

 

Later,

 

Aldous

 

P.S. Cordelia and I split. She said I wasn't "intellectually stimulating enough". I'm like, "Hello? I'm a soldier?" She seemed to find me "stimulating enough" when we were on the road. Besides, it's not like I'm totally stupid. I'm a "3," man, which is enough to keep from being charmed. Sometimes. On a good day. So who do you think she went and hooked up with? Remember Lark? Yeah, that Lark. Talk about rubbing salt in the wound. Is it supposed to make me feel better or worse that she dumped me for a chick? Anyway, I've been seeing this nephilim archer chick named Meow. (No joke: that's her name.) She's great, but I've got these allergies, so I have to get shots once a month. Maybe you know this, but nephilim chicks are pretty hot. Except for that hairball thing. Sheesh. And she won't come near me if I haven't bathed in, like, six hours.

 

P.P.S.: Mycroft tells me to tell you, "Please, please answer my e-mail!" I swear to god, he's been writing poems about you. Like, really bad poems, too. I keep telling him, "Get over it, dude, you know Dionicio doesn't swing that way," but he says his "gaydar" tells him otherwise. Anyway, just passing the message on. Oh, and he tells me to tell you that he reminded me twice to go back for you before the big fight, which may be true. I don't remember. What can I say, dude, I'm just a "3". LOL

P.P.P.S. Almost forgot: Ssschah gave me a message to you about "Owing you a great debt" and about how "neither I nor my kin shall soon forget", and then he start throwing in Slith words that all just sounded like "hiss" to me, and that's when my eyes glazed over and I started thinking that it was probably overkill to go into that last fight wearing the Crystalline Plate when I probably could've taken Dork-ass out just as easily wearing the Mercuric Chain, which got me thinking about sweat, and then I started wondering if Avernites know some tricks to keep stuff from rusting that we don't know about. And then Ssschah said, "I trust you will pass this message on to Dionicio," and I'm like, "Hey, consider it passed, dude."

 

So Ssschah says "Thanks." I think.

It sounds like there's a lot of liking going on.

Like, whaddya mean, dude? tongue

Seriously, apart from having majored in writing in college, I grew up in a house where the superfluous use of "you know" and "like" (or, heaven forbid, "ain't") invariably resulted in sarcastic rejoinders from either or both parents. (That was in the days before "totally" and "dude" had spread like viruses.) So for me this is like writing in a foreign language. That would include "LOL." Just today I came across a hilarious sticker that reads, "I'm somewhat skeptical you're laughing out loud as much as you claim."

Ex:

I'm sure you didn't mean to say "licking", did you? Because I'd hate for another "tongue" thread to get started.

 

Matt:

I remember when I was a kid I decided that I'd start pronouncing the word "rather" like a British person... and my brother consequently made fun of me until I stopped doing it. Before that I tried to start using the word "ain't", just to be interesting, but my father was not amused.

 

He was, however, amused when I began using the word "whatever", and consequently began using the word himself... but I restrained my use of words like "like" for out of doors, along with most of the rest of my vernacular.

 

I guess "dude" was an okay word when it was used ironically. When jocks and guys with baseball caps began using the word profusely, it stopped being amusing and just became annoying.

The rolleyes were apposite; you can decide for yourself if you deserve to be called an ass for doing something idiotic (and boasting about it here).

Whoa, you completely misinterpreted the situation, but that is my fault. I always fail to explain things correctly.

Besides, that incident happened years ago. You know, when I was a complete idiot? But that was years ago...

This is hilarious. I like the tone and style of this e-mail, bro. It actually reads like it was written by someone with a "3" in intelligence, dude. I especially like the fourth wall referential allusion to the author's intellect stat. I can actually visualize a musclehead that's PUMPED about adventuring and totally stoked to get to stab stuff for a living.

Normally people frown on posting in topics that have been dead for months, because if you do that, everyone sees a many-page topic with a vaguely familiar name suddenly appear out of nowhere among the active topics, and people may waste some time on it before they realize it's not actually new.

 

But I'm glad this one got revived, because I had never seen it when it was fresh, and it's hilarious. We ought to have a special shrine for classic posts like the original one in this thread.
