I never said I didn't advocate cheating. It's one of my favorite ways to win, actually.

Mutual boredom. Whatever shall we do?

[knifedances]

Duly noted~

Ah, who knows? Move on to something that's more of a challenge, perhaps. I hate to waste my time on those who show no promise, who seem so mired in the mundane pointlessness of their narrow, socially-prescribed lives.

[neotitanium]

What exactly is socially-prescribed here? Mundane pointlessness is actually in rather short supply. Not that I favor it. No, I prefer something a little more passionate and beautiful. This ship's no battlefield.

[knifedances]

Humans still labour under the same set of social and moral codes. The location may have changed, but the sentiment governing their lives has not. And the way that people conduct themselves can equally continue to be mundane and pointless even if their environment is not.

Something more passionate and beautiful? You have an extremely romanticised view of a battlefield, if that's the way you look at it.

[neotitanium]

You're forgetting that it's not just humans here.

Maybe that's how I see it. Maybe I'm playing Devil's advocate. Maybe I don't care at all. Odds are 3:1. How's that suit you? Do you think the dice are loaded?

[knifedances]

I'm not forgetting. It's just that the others hold no real interest for me. I'll admit to being mildly curious about them, but that's as far as it goes.

It's not the first time you've spoken of battles. It seems it's something you're accustomed to, if nothing else, and don't most humans come to miss the things they've become accustomed to?

[neotitanium]

How xenophobic.

We all have things we pine for and crave. Usually it's things that will do us harm. Hedonists take their pleasure where they can find it.

[knifedances]

Lol, hardly. I didn't say anything about being unduly fearful, merely indifferent.

You think most people crave for things that will do them harm? I'm not sure I agree. Though it's a different matter for hedonists, perhaps.

[neotitanium]

You may very well be downplaying it though.

You know what they say about too much of anything...

[knifedances]

From your perspective I suppose it's possible, but nonetheless untrue. I see no reason to be afraid.

I do, though I'm not sure I agree with that saying~

[neotitanium]

Pretend to be unafraid for long enough and you will be. I don't believe it though. I'll believe it when I see it.

Then disagree.

[knifedances]

Then you'll see it when you find me, if you're even capable of it.

I intend to.

[neotitanium]

Capable but uninterested. Let's leave that to chance. Now won't that be interesting?

[knifedances]

Ah, and still you fail to live up to my expectations. But that's okay, most people invariably do and I have come to expect it. To chance then~

[neotitanium]

[yeah, she's not answering that, eff you B|]
