italianbrawler:

anyways boo

italianbrawler:

we should totally add belle

Lanolin:

Again, this chat is only meant for us. For important purposes and not for hanging out.

italianbrawler:

techincally it would be easier to get in contact with belle and easier to share news and stuff

Lanolin:

...I suppose that's true

Lanolin:

Does she even have a phone?

italianbrawler:

she's a robot she probably is the phone

Lanolin:

italianbrawler has added Belle the Tinkerer to "Diamond Cutters".

Belle the Tinkerer:

hi y'all!!

italianbrawler:

belle!! my 3rd fav bestie!!

mineralmonarch:

Hello, Belle! Welcome!

Lanolin:

Hi, Belle.

deadlylullaby:

yo

Belle the Tinkerer:

been a busy day at the workshop. how was y'all's day?

Lanolin:

Same as usual. You fixed the toilet Whisper broke?

Belle the Tinkerer:

it's good as new! surprisingly

deadlylullaby:

can we not talk about that ever again

Belle the Tinkerer:

if it helps, it was kind of helpful for me?

deadlylullaby:

...how

mineralmonarch:

I mean, the pipes were destroyed by the explosion and she put it back together so

italianbrawler:

and she got it done pretty quickly!

Lanolin:

We did remove the smart toilets though. So, that might be the only one in the Restoration.

deadlylullaby:

thank gaia

Belle the Tinkerer:

wish you woulda told me that before I fixed it up tbh

Lanolin:

You finished very fast, Belle. There wasn't any time left to tell you.

Belle the Tinkerer:

yeah yeah

Belle the Tinkerer:

so what do y'all do here? just talk?

mineralmonarch:

It's just a way to keep everyone up to date and anything new without needing to just call individually

italianbrawler:

and we kinda deviated from that after whis destroyed a bathroom

deadlylullaby:

I DON'T WANNA TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE

Belle the Tinkerer:

I see

Belle the Tinkerer:

what's a diamond cutter

Lanolin:

It's just our team name. Yes, you're not on it, but I'd argue you're still a vital member of the organization to be on our level.

Belle the Tinkerer:

oh!!! thank you!!

italianbrawler:

wow you switched up on adding her in the first place

Lanolin:

Not important

Lanolin:
