[After fiddling with the gear for a bit and checking the network, it seemed like it's impossible to tell who is who... so now seemed like a prime time to ask without embarrassment. Now to just keep it short in case the text glitches and gibberishes the question...]

someone explain what 'the talk' is

[Someone should answer, people are always answering questions or being nosy.]

...actually, I guess you're right now that I think about it.
I just figured it was right since nobody would explain it otherwise to me.

[papshooshing]

MAYBE WHEN THIS ANON SHIT IS OVER, I WILL.

[tentacletrainer]

Well then when this anon shit is over I'll seek you out.
Though I figured now would be the best time to explain it, wouldn't it?
Then no one knows who you are and it's less embarrassing.

[papshooshing]

NO, BECAUSE I'M NOT GOING TO TALK TO JUST ANYONE ABOUT IT.

[tentacletrainer]

What a shame. I'm sure it would be very educational for everyone and would really help to avoid offending any of you with buckets on accident.

[usedshooshpap]

MOST OF US HAVE BEEN HERE LONG ENOUGH FOR IT NOT TO BE A PROBLEM.

[tentacletrainer]

Most, but you're missing a few friends still, aren't you?
Don't get me wrong though. I'm not pushing you to do anything.
Just saying.

[usedshooshpap]

FUNNY THING ABOUT THAT.
I'M NOT REALLY THE LEADER HERE ANYMORE.

[tentacletrainer]

Really? Well then who is?
I'll put in a request to them instead.

[papshooshing]

ROSE, SORT OF.

[tentacletrainer]

[[Oh.

Well then.

This is new.]]

Oh really?
Well is sort of enough of a certification to ask her about it then?

[papshooshing]

BEATS THE FUCK OUT OF ME.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHE KNOWS.

[tentacletrainer]

Huh. Sounds like someone needs to confer with their leader then sometime.
Maybe a memo is in order.

[papshooshing]

I HAVEN'T DONE A MEMO IN SUCH A FUCKING LONG TIME.

[tentacletrainer]

Oh I know.
Or I guess you could say it applies here too.
I miss them.

[papshooshing]

WELL THEN
YOU'RE DEFINITELY NOT JADE OR JOHN.
OR SOLLUX
OR VRISKA

[tentacletrainer]

Got me there.

[papshooshing]

WHO ARE YOU.

[tentacletrainer]

A friend.

[papshooshing]

WOW.
THAT'S SO TOTALLY HELPFUL.
I HAVE COMPLETELY FIGURED OUT THE MYSTERY HERE.

[tentacletrainer]

I knew you could do it.
My faith in you never wavered.

[papshooshing]

[tentacletrainer]

Oh don't give me that look. This is fun! Maybe I'll stay anonymous after the network mends itself.
Or at least poke an anonymous nose out more often.
Maybe I should pick up a quirk!
Just to add ~mystery~ to my identity.
I've always wondered how much fun it would be to play around with font colors.
Oh I think I like this one!

[papshooshing]

I CAN'T TELL IF I SHOULD BE ASHAMED OR AMUSED.

[tentacletrainer]

Ashamed or amused by what?
