concernedAutocrat is minding their own business, sitting in a deserted Roman forum. they tap their foot absentmindedly as they stare off into the distance. Suddenly, assiduousTagger excitedly runs onstage (from stage right) carrying a piece of paper. They almost trip over CA’s foot, but manage to stop their forward movement just as CA practically leaps to the side. After this, CA dusts themself off, looking annoyed while AT glances at the ground sheepishly, but still excited about what they have in their hands.
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Hey! Watch Where You’re Going! AT, You Almost Ran Me Over!
assiduousTagger [AT]: *oh!!! sorry ca i was a little excited about this new artwork i found*!!!
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Let Me Have A Look At That.
CA snatches the paper out of AT's hands.
assiduousTagger [AT]: *hey*!!!
CA looks over the paper, their face deepening into a frown, much like that one chef skinner gif from that one Troll Pixar movie with the squeakbeast chef.
concernedAutocrat [CA]: AT, I Don’t Think I Can Allow You To Upload This. It’s Much Too Obscene.
assiduousTagger [AT]: ca... huh??? *what do you mean*??? i already... looked it over... *its completely fine*!!! dude... you must be... tripping balls... or something
Frustrated, AT tries to take the paper back from CA, but the latter member manages to hold it above the former’s head.
concernedAutocrat [CA]: I Have Told You Not To Use Such Vulgar Language Around Me In The Past. Besides, It’s Completely Obvious As To Why Something Like This Should Never Be Allowed Up.
assiduousTagger [AT]: if its so... obvious... then how come i dont see... anything wrong with it???
concernedAutocrat [CA]: You Just Have Remarkably Poor Taste.
assiduousTagger [AT]: *maybe i wouldnt have as poor of a taste if you ever told me what was wrong with the things i found*!!!
While CA is processing this latest remark, AT manages to jump up high enough to grab the piece of paper back.
assiduousTagger [AT]: *aha*!!!
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Give That Back!
A short chase scene ensues. The smaller, but faster, AT manages to evade CA as they race around the stage. Eventually, CA has to bend over and catch their breath. AT stops after noticing and proceeds to stick out their tongue rather childishly at their pursuer.
assiduousTagger [AT]: just... let me put this one up... okay??? its... completely fine
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Not If I Have Anything To Say About It. I’m Calling TC.
assiduousTagger [AT]: (wondering aloud) isnt tc... asleep right now???
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Well, Yes, But It Seems Like Calling Them Is The Only Way To Make You Understand That This Simply Can’t Be Allowed Up!
concernedAutocrat [CA]: (shouting offstage towards stage left) TC!
A groggy TC rubs their eyes sleepily and lets out a yawn as they walk over from stage left after a moment.
tranquilConciliator [TC]: why was i ping-ed. whats happ-en-ing ŪnŪ
concernedAutocrat [CA]: AT Wants To Put Obscene Stuff Up That I Don’t Think Is Appropriate. They Also Used Foul Language Around Me, Which I Have Told Them To Not Use In The Past.
TC takes a deep sigh and shakes their head in frustration at the two members.
tranquilConciliator [TC]: im going to need more in-for-ma-tion. tc, im sorry, but you tend to ex-cess-ive-ly lean on the side of cau-tion. i have-nt e-ven seen the im-age in ques-tion yet. at, can you clar-i-fy some de-tails for me?
assiduousTagger [AT]: well... i was looking through... an old blog... probably 2011 or so... *and i saw this super cute image here take a look*!!!
AT shoves the paper in TC's face. CA gives a deep frown of disproval. TC takes the paper away from their face and studies it while the two members lean in on either side, listening for the final verdict.
tranquilConciliator [TC]: really? i was wo-ken up for this? this image is com-plete-ly fine. what about an image, which i would tag “2011 vod-ka_mu-ti-ni bev-er-age di-a-bet-es full-res milk slee-ping solo yarn”, is prob-lem-a-tic? this is one of the cu-test and non-iss-ue im-a-ges ive ever seen.
AT gives a cheer of joy as CA blushes with embarassment.
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Sorry, You Know How I Get About Visitors Judging Us. But I Suppose Now That I’m Thinking About It, My Concerns About People Taking Offense At A Cat Being Fed Milk Is Quite Silly. Most People Don’t Even Know It’s Not Healthy For Them.
tranquilConciliator [TC]: yeah, its o-kay. as long as you stop and think about things be-fore in-volv-ing me next time. good-night you two, im go-ing back to bed.
TC walks off stage left. AT crosses their arms and smirks as CA sheepishly scratches their head.
concernedAutocrat [CA]:I Suppose I Should Appologise For Being Mistaken.
assiduousTagger [AT]: really now... i never would have... suggested you do that
CA glares at AT as the latter supresses a smile.
concernedAutocrat [CA]: Whatever, I Need To Go Anyways. See You Later AT.
assiduousTagger [AT]: sure ca... dont worry... ill make sure to upload... one million problematic images... while youre away
concernedAutocrat [CA]: You’re An Ass, You Know That, Right?
CA huffs and tuns abruptly, walking off stage left.
assiduousTagger [AT]: (just as CA is almost offstage) *you know it*!!!
AT winks and points double fingerguns at CA as the latter throws up their arms, shouts in frustration, and walks offstage. AT then chuckles a little to themselves before following off stage left.
