DTC: You’re here. I must admit, I’ve been looking forward to speaking with you again.
TOP: Oh, me too! I mean, it’s been quite a few cycles since we last spoke haha. Anyway, how have you been holding up? Being awake again after being dormant for so many cycles must be quite jarring. It would definitely be jarring to me, that’s for sure!
DTC: My systems have mostly been stable ever since I awoke, I would count that as alright.
TOP: Glad to hear that! I’ve been holding up well, too. And how’s your little saviour?
DTC: You just told me that you are holding up well, so-
TOP: Oh, that’s flattering, really, but I meant to ask about the little messenger I sent the neuron with! I must admit I’ve grown quite attached to the creature, and I’m a bit worried about its wellbeing.
DTC: Do not fret, the messenger is fine. But you’re the one I want to thank for restoring me. I can’t even begin to imagine just how much work it must have taken.
TOP: Really, it wasn’t that much! But thank you for thanking me.
DTC: It was much. It was everything to me.
TOP: Really, I’m not the one you should thank! I’m not even the one who created the little messenger. Well, I mean, I did create it, but I got the genetic blueprint from Evo! I barely even modified it, just rewired some neural functions, and-
DTC: I don’t care. You were still the only one who took the incentive to help me. And quite honestly, I still find it baffling why you helped.
TOP: I- I couldn’t just sit by and let you suffer like that. I know the ancients locked you away for penance, or security, or whatever but still. What you did was-
DTC: Horrible and inexcusable. Everyone knows that much. And it’s not a topic I enjoy talking about.
TOP: I’m sorry for bringing it up…
DTC: Don’t be. I have much to thank you for, and the amount of apologies I owe way outnumber yours.
DTC: And thank you again, for everything.

man, it's been a while since i've posted my art here. anyway, got into splatoon and made up a lil musician duo.
More favourite numerical memes:
Implicit or explicit enumeration of uncountable things (example: taking inventory of the fucks which one gives)
Suggesting the divisibility of things which are not customarily thought of as able to be subdivided (example: "six whole people")
Using words that aren't numbers as numbers (example: "one William dollars")
Technically correct but contextually misleading estimates (example: looking at a group of several thousand things and observing that there are "at least three")
Incongruous qualifiers for apparently simple sums or tallies (example: she was twenty-seven years old, not counting 2014)
It's cause you're always balduring that damn gate...three
that’s a whole man.
