gollark: I've got an IOU for four going, in fact.
gollark: Yes, indeed.
gollark: In any case, I still don't have much to trade, and Fiona's profile says not to contact them about alts unless you've traded with them before.
gollark: Shadow Walkers, Omens, mostly.
gollark: Unfortunately the ones with the alts I like mostly either aren't or I don't know who they are.
