To go back to your oil rig? Or do you have a family of some kind?

@Legend Begins

I have a fiancé. And parents, and a brother.

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

I feel as if they owe you some kind of severance package.

@Legend Begins

Pah. Good luck getting any workers benefits out of an organization with a recruitment campaign centered on brainwashing.
*Shifts my stance*
I don’t need anything. Being able to get home is all I wanted, and still want.

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

...Huh. Yeah, that would make for a pretty bad boss.

@Legend Begins

Does mind control count as micromanagement too? Because if so you weren’t far off anyway.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Bad hours? Micromanagement?

@Legend Begins

War crimes.

What happened to them?

@Legend Begins

He died I think. I wasn’t there for whatever happened so I don’t really know. Good riddance though.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

I don’t remember a lot of it, just flashes. Some sort of camp, a cold rock, getting stabbed, an ocean of ink, fuzziness, and then waking up in a castle. That’s where my boss found me and where I live today.

@Legend Begins

Your story really just sounds so much like mine. Only difference is my “boss” is gone now and I’m just running around with my head cut off instead.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Yeah, it seems that way. I’m still putting the pieces together.

@Legend Begins

You at least seem better at it than I am. What happened?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

That sounds like the dream life.
*Scratches at my neck*
If I am, nobody’s bothered to tell me about it. I wish I could be normal normal though.

@Legend Begins

Something roped you too, huh?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Groans*
You just reminded me why I don’t like being here. That sounds nice.

@Legend Begins

It was. I worked on an offshore rig, and I've been gone a long time. Everyone probably things I drowned in an ocean accident or something.
...
You talk like that, I take it you're not a superpowered wannabe god?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

What’s your home like?

@Legend Begins

Quiet. Peaceful. Not full of superpowered wannabe gods and endless conflict that wipes out planets all the time.
