That works.

"Want me to take a picture of you in the suit for your profile picture?"

Permalink

"I kind of stole this girl's face. Maybe just one of the shots of the neat moons."

Permalink

Oh yeah, that makes sense.

And ta-da, she has a twitter account.

"You should follow me! And I can follow you back."

Permalink

"You are liable to get a decent amount of attention if Lia follows you back," comments Lucien, who is catching up on the backlog of a blog he's a fan of.

Permalink

"...god I miss my robot."

Permalink

"How so?"

Permalink

"It would just manage this for me. It gave me a digest of whatever was going on with the parahumans forums, so I didn't have to wade into it myself. It got itself made a moderator."

Permalink

"Oh that does sound great. Maybe I'd be willing to post if a bot would summarize the replies for me."

Permalink

"The replies aren't nearly that bad."

Permalink

"No, they really are. You just have a secret secondary power of being immune to caring about them."

Permalink

"I care about them! I'm just not very upset - people can be all sorts of ways and that's okay."

Permalink

"I mean I don't disagree but sometimes the way they are is stating false things, or worse misstating true things, and it turns out explaining things to them can take an infinite period of time."

Permalink

"Oh that's a skill issue, just be more like me and don't know enough to correct them in detail."

Permalink

"How is that a skill issue?"

Permalink

"You have too much skill and it's causing you issues."

Permalink

Lucien suppress a laugh. 

Permalink

It is a little funny.

Permalink

"So should I follow you back or are you issued with too many skills for the attention?"

Permalink

"Issued with... what?"

Permalink

"Do you want the attention you would get from my following you back or will you mind it like Lucien ended up minding it."

Permalink

"I don't think I mind as long as it's not expected that I return all attention with my own attention."

Permalink

"You are not."

And followed.

Permalink

She will pick her way through the process of getting the photos up and only swear a little bit about not having her Tinker instincts any more.

Permalink

"Should I tag you so people know you deserve credit for the photos I posted?
