V1D3O!

[ so there's a little bit of fussing once the feed starts up; the camera is full of sharp, shark-like teeth before terezi finally backs up and pushes her red glasses up her snout. and she is not alone on the feed! off to her left, aradia can be seen. ]

So this is a message that goes out to all you humans out there with "birthdays"! You would all be wise to listen up because this is pretty important.

[aradia shows a smile, though excitement is clearly radiating from her as her eyes twinkle and her smile widens with words.]

With these "birthdays" it's been said depending on where it lands on that you are a specific Zodiac sign! That's the reason we're here to talk to you, since it appears these Zodiac signs have come from us.

Yeah, see!

[ terezi holds up a black shirt with a teal libra sign, as though it was proof to her claims. no one tell her she's off-center, shhh. ]

See, we trolls are given a sign when we're hatched. Mine is apparently something you guys call "Libra". Aradia here is "Aries".

[a light tap on the other troll's arm goes to gesture terezi to lower the shirt (she does, after giving aradia a look), so aradia can show her own black shirt with a dark red aries sign on it. these clothing stores have some zodiac shirts quite in stock. she lowers it shortly after showing it.]

Which as you can see from both of these. We can't exactly explain as to why that is, other than the conclusion we've come across that on making a new Universe our signs were passed on over. Signs that each of you have connected to your "birthdays" for many reasons including those horoscopes you put up in the newspaper.

Which is weird... What's the deal with those horoscopes?

[ >:? A SHRUG. ]

Anyway we wanna know what zodiac signs you guys are! We've got a lot of trolls here now, almost all twelve!

Maybe they'll be able to enlighten us on that.

[from what she's read though it sounds really silly 0u0 no that's stupid]

Like us they each represent a sign as well, so do feel free to tell us! Maybe you'll be able to find it as equally interesting.

And then we can tell you what troll you belong to. ... Oh but if you're—

[ a pause and terezi licks the screen of aradia's nv device ]

...an Aquarius... Hehehehe! Sorry in adva~nce.

( ooc | terezi and aradia!! both canon and non-canon birthdays count. pretty much all the trolls -- and some kids! -- will be tagging around, threadjacking and whatnot, with and without quirks. just let us know in the subject line if you'd like a reply without the quirk.

pile in and find your character's patrol troll! :D idea borrowed from the lovely people at [community profile] soul_campaign. )

Once you've met him there isn't really a reason to question.

Are you Aquarius?
arisenew: (frown ♈ we've come)

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-14 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[can you hear the pity in her tone?]

The one that stands for Aquarius. ..Sorry.

...Is there some kinda reason I should be scared here? I'm not getting it.
arisenew: (attention ♈ there is no one)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-14 08:12 am (UTC)(link)
Not scared, no. Well maybe. Perhaps you've seen him around the network? He types in purple font with a typing quirk using two W's instead of just one.
azarathmetrionzinthos: (looking down)

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-14 08:27 am (UTC)(link)
I can't say I've really noticed. No offense, but I tend to skip posts like that.
arisenew: (smile ♈ let's see how far we've come)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-15 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
None taken, some of us do tend to ramble more so than others about unnecessary things. [ahem eridan]

...I tried reading one once. It was kind of... totally incomprehensible.
arisenew: (pic#2408735)

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-16 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
The typing quirks are suppose to present who we are, hence why they are quirks. The color and set-up is different usually between each troll.

But you're not the only one who may find some of them incomprehensible. Though usually if you ask them to drop the quirk nicely they may do it.

It's not just that, though... It's the actual words. Like, I don't know what a hoofbeast is.
arisenew: (think ♈ now i wonder what my life)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-17 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
I believe the equivalent human term for that would be horses, if I'm correct.
azarathmetrionzinthos: (meditate)

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-17 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
...That'd make sense, I guess. Lots of other stuff, but I guess that's just a culture thing. I don't really understand all the Japanese around here either.
arisenew: (mysterious ♈ and there's just)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-17 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
There'll always be cultural differences. After all there's plenty of human things that we ourselves don't understand, but we try to adapt.
azarathmetrionzinthos: (meditate)

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-18 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
Do you? You think all of them are?
arisenew: (curious ♈ but then i feel)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-19 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
Possibly. I find it interesting to learn.
azarathmetrionzinthos: (powers)

voice;

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-19 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
...Yeah, I guess it could be.

I actually grew up in a different dimension myself.
arisenew: (fly ♈ and here we will go)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-19 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
How is it there compared to here?
azarathmetrionzinthos: (meditate)

voice;

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-19 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
It was a small pocket dimension that was created for one purpose... So it was really just a temple. For meditation.
arisenew: (investigate ♈ that you're making me)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-20 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Did you stay there for very long?
azarathmetrionzinthos: (meditate)

voice;

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-20 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
For most of my life, I guess. Which is to say, thirteen years.
arisenew: (john ♈ something about you)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-20 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
Oh I see! So we're about the same age then.
azarathmetrionzinthos: (powers)

voice;

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-20 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
Oh-- Well, I'm nineteen now. So thirteen years is still "most" of my life, that's what I meant. Is that about right?
arisenew: (calm ♈ the mechanism is yearning)

voice;

[personal profile] arisenew 2012-02-20 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
oh yes that's right! Were you the only one there? Sounds like a long time all the same to spend there.
azarathmetrionzinthos: (waffling)

voice;

[personal profile] azarathmetrionzinthos 2012-02-22 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
There were others... The monks who raised me.

Seems like a long time now, but I didn't know anything else, after all.
