You: He could've just been busy the past couple days.
tenacious_leg: He shows up every day. What the fuck are YOU doing here in the first place? Get out of here, man.
headcrab385: hey
headcrab385: hey
headcrab385: chill
headcrab385: nothing happened to him as far as we know.
headcrab385: and don't be mean to the new dude
tenacious_leg: Whatever, man. He's gonna show up, like, tomorrow, I know it.
headcrab385: wheres redhand
You: Logged off a couple minutes ago.
You: So why were you guys here without saying anything?
masterBeef: He comes on for a couple of seconds around this time of night. His status message is always the same, and something about his profile is wrong
masterBeef: We've been meaning to try to message him. But we always miss him because we're always talking. So we decided to wait in silence.
headcrab385: hey. new guy
headcrab385: do me a favor please
headcrab385: dont try to talk to him. leave it to us
You: Alright.
He didn't know what else to say, and no one else sent a message, so he just stayed in the chatroom, hoping theBeardedGuy751 would show up. About thirty minutes passed, and he started to wonder whether he should've been there at all. Nothing was keeping him there, he didn't know any of these people. But part of him didn't want to leave those people alone, and part of him was curious about what happened to that user. So he waited. He was about to fall asleep, when suddenly his screen flashed with a private message.
theBeardedGuy751 (private): Hey. Don't tell them I'm online. Please. You have to leave the chatroom, I have more time than I had yesterday, but I don't have nearly as much time as I need.
You (private): What?
theBeardedGuy751 (private): None of these people are worried about what happened to me. They know exactly what happened. You need to leave this chatroom. I'm using the library computer to send these messages, because they know my address.
You (private): I don't understand.
theBeardedGuy751 (private): Do you have a webcam? Whatever you're doing right now they can see it. They're probably not looking at your output but they'll know you're PM'ing someone. Leave the chatroom.
headcrab385: hey new guy?
theBeardedGuy751 (private): PLEASE
headcrab385: why did you enter this chatroom
headcrab385: like in specific
theBeardedGuy751 (private): DO NOT RESPOND
