Today at 2:50 PM
Comes in with three female clones, all riding on the mini nimbus cloud.
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)

Today at 3:13 PM
Is laying in front of a table, focused on his computer until he sees Tai. "Wow, what an entrance. Hey." Wiggles his claws at them.
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 3:28 PM
All wave at the same time. "Suuup?"
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 3:44 PM
"Was enjoying the quiet company while on my computer. Is this some kind of event? With the, uh, clouds and procession?"
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 3:54 PM
Blinks a little and then snorts. All talk in unison. "Nah, this is just how I get around."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 3:55 PM
"You're all the same person? Clones or... multiple bodies, one mind?"
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 4:03 PM
Puts on a show as if really pondering that, all humming in slightly different tones. "Hmm. Good question."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:04 PM
Shrugs. "Well I ain't here to give you an existential crisis. Either way," he snorts, "I bet you can really get around with those bodies."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 4:06 PM
Grins at that, very fangy, and all of the Tais sit down in different places, posing idly. "Yeah, you can say that."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:08 PM
"So, what's up with you? And you and you and you?"
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 4:33 PM
The one leaning by the vending machines crosses her arms. "Oh, nothing really. Just got off work. Figured i'd come here and order some food."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:34 PM
"What kind of work do you do? I'm a freelance artist and livestreamer."
Has to take a moment to readjust himself to look at the other Tai.
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 4:35 PM
"Oh, personal trainer, and I also have my own greenhouse growing and selling some of the island's best weed."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:35 PM
"Whaa, really? Shit, what's your name? That sounds familiar. The, uh, description of someone who's a personal trainer and weed seller."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 4:37 PM
All grin and reply at once. "Tai Khoa."
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 4:38 PM
"I was also around in the arena for a bit here and there."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:40 PM
"No wonder you felt familiar. I don't watch fights, but I'm a big follower of social media. Once in a while someone I follow will post highlights from there. Nah, I mostly heard of you from my friends I party with. You got a good rep."
"Ah, shit. Names. I'm DeShawn Shine."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 4:42 PM
"Oh, cool, cool. So you're a local then?" Alll of them offer a handshake :^)
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:47 PM
Oh boy. Decides to shake the hands of the two closest ones with both hands, then does the same to the others.
"Yeah, been living here since 2017. Was never human, but I lived near them for most of my life, so it was easy to adapt here."
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 4:56 PM
Snorts a little and shakes her head. "Yeah, humans can really suck. I lived in Boston up until like high school. Place was the worst."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 4:57 PM
"Ah, well..." Cringes a little. "I don't dislike humans. I don't dislike any species in particular. It's more like the place I'm from was very tight-knit, mostly non-humans only. Most of my fanbase is human sooo, yeah, I ain't gonna complain 'bout them."

Nods, nods. "Livestreamer you said? What's that cover?"
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:02 PM
"I draw and play games. Most of my streamed art is for others. People pay me to draw their characters and I show them my process."
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 5:12 PM
"Oh, that's cool as shit. I'll have to tune in some time."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 5:13 PM
"What kinda games you like?"
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:21 PM
Smiles proudly. "I'd love that. I'm always accepting new watchers. Anyways, I prefer single player stuff. I've been trying to get into more multiplayer now that I can actually, y'know, meet people I play with. Some of my favorite games to stream are story heavy. Undertale, when that was big, and, oh! Been playing Control and that's fun too.
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 5:22 PM
Nods and grins approvingly. "Good taste. I always liked single player rpgs myself, and also like...MMOs when I was a teenager. Now I'm into stuff like Dark Souls."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:27 PM
"Oh MMOs can be so fun. I a few streams where I went through the FFXIV storyline, then I did some speed leveling of the game. But, man, I'm fuckin' bad at games like Dark Souls. I'll play them, but only 'cause it's funny to laugh at myself with the audience."
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 5:30 PM
Laughs a little. "Yeah, it's definitely a learning curve. I guess I just don't value my sanity enough to quit when it gets annoying."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:35 PM
Shakes his head jokingly. "I don't value my sanity either. Playing a game for several hours in front of a crowd? Lotta work."
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 5:37 PM
"Oh, I don't doubt it dude." Pauses for a sec. "Hey, you said art, right? What kinda stuff do you tend to draw?"
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:40 PM
"Ah right, you worked in the arena. Welll, actually... mostly non-humans. I lived surrounded by them, so I'm known for making 'surprisingly realistic,' anatomically correct 'monsters' and 'fantastical creatures.'" Does all of those quotation marks.
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 5:42 PM
Snorts a little at the air quotes. "Ah, I gotcha. That's cool though. Just because you had good references doesn't mean you didn't work to get the skill you're popular for, by the way."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:43 PM
"Damn right. Harpy legs are way different from centaur legs, and the list goes on. It's like relearning anatomy a hundred times over. And still people have the balls to tell me my anatomy looks unrealistic." Laughs, then groans. "Sucks I can't tell them off."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 5:45 PM
Hums a little at that. "Well, yeah, maybe not. But you get to be satisfied knowing they're wrong, and you're legit, y'know man?"
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:51 PM
"Yeeeah. And I got this entire cool island. They have... the rest of the Earth."
Tai Khoa (Female)
BOT
Today at 5:53 PM
"Well. It is a pretty sick island."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)
BOT
Today at 5:57 PM
Snorts. "I can walk around with my giant ass too."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 6:10 PM
"Yeah, it's pretty sick being able to be yourself." Briefly takes off his human shape charm to show monkey mode, then puts it back on.
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)

:O "Yoo! I have one of those, but only if I absolutely need to use them."
Tai Khoa (Male)
BOT
Today at 6:35 PM
"Yeah, they're pretty handy."
DeShawn Shine (Arachnid)

Today at 6:43 PM
"Yeah, I only use them for vlogs and pictures, but most of the time I just say I'm wearing makeup."
