[82the8th]

You know, ever since I arrived here, I had a feeling that I was headed for gr8ness.
So it m8kes me very happy to find out that my memories support this!
I'm not just headed for gr8ness. It's my destiny.
In other words, guess who has the 8est ancestry ever?
Here's a hint.
I do.
It's me.
I have some 8ig shoes to fill, so I'd 8etter get 8usy.

[At some point in the recent past, Ike got some texting lessons.]

Being born into a family doesn't mean you're destined for greatness.

[82the8th]

Oh, that? You're pro8a8ly misunderstanding.
We don't have your 8izarre human 'families'.

[blue_flames]

You're missing my point. That doesn't matter.

[82the8th]

You think you understand what I'm talking a8out, 8ut you don't.
And I forgive you for that! There's no w8y a human would know how this works.
Ruling over others is in my very real destiny and my very literal 8lood.

[blue_flames]

No. I know how it works. That's how kingdoms and empires are ruled, by being a descendant of the rulers. That's also how the exact people who shouldn't have power get it.

[all_onis_are_true]

As self-satisfied as always, I see.

[82the8th]

And why shouldn't I 8e?
I was right a8out two huge things in a row!

[all_onis_are_true]

And as we all know, being right about two things automatically makes you better than everybody else. Astounding. Your ego is a sight to behold, you know that?

[82the8th]

Oh, no, that's just why I'm in a gr8 mood!
The reason I'm 8etter than everyone else is completely different.

[all_onis_are_true]

Uh huh. That ego's going to get you killed some day, you know.

[hatefriendleader]

ANCESTORS ARE FAKE, DUMBASS.

[82the8th]

Spoken like a troll with a shitty ancestor.

[hatefriendleader]

OR, YOU KNOW, LIKE A TROLL WHO DOESN'T GO IN FOR RETARDED MELODRAMATIC SELF-AGGRANDIZING SUPERSTITIONS.
YOU JUST FIND SOME PROOF THAT SOME TROLL WITH YOUR BLOOD COLOR AND SIGN EXISTED AT SOME POINT IN THE PAST--SHOCKINGLY!--AND PIECE TOGETHER A BUNCH OF BULLSHIT ABOUT HOW BADASS THEY WERE OUT OF AS LITTLE EVIDENCE AS POSSIBLE, THEN DECIDE YOU'RE GOING TO BE JUST LIKE THEM.
IT'S PATHETIC WIGGLERY HERO WORSHIP FUCKING GARBAGE.

[82the8th]

Sometimes I feel like I'd have to give myself a concussion to understand what it's like to 8e as ignorant as you are.

[hatefriendleader]

DON'T BE SO DRAMATIC.
YOU DON'T NEED TO DISABLE YOUR TRANSCENDENT PSYCHIC IGNORANCE POWERS TO RISE TO MY LEVEL.

[number_one_dime]

Don't go relyin' on the fortune of others - ye'd nevar get anywhere like that!

[82the8th]

Like you know anything a8out my situ8tion.

[number_one_dime]

I can tell arrogance, when I see it lass.

[He scoffs in the way only an old Scotsduck can]

[82the8th]

There's a difference 8etween arrogance and actual, factual superiority.

[number_one_dime]

Put yer money where ye bill is and prove it then, lassie.

[mokomanjuu]

Really? Mokona wants to hear more!

[82the8th]

I remem8ered my ancestor!!!!!!!!
The mighty troll in whose footsteps I am f8ted to walk.

[mokomanjuu]

That really is cool! Having her "destiny" all figured out must be why Vriska is always so confident.

[82the8th]

Also 8ecause I'm not nearly 8lind enough to dou8t my gr8ness, 8ut yes!

[mokomanjuu]

Did Vriska's ancestor have glasses, too?
