The personal satisfaction it would bring me is not that kind.

[ But, hm. Hmmmm. There's a long pause before this one, but still: ]

I was surprised they put so much thought into it. They modeled possibilities most people wouldn't consider. Although I doubt anyone made use of them.

[sicklysweet]

well, you never know. maybe you'll surprise yourself. don't men get awkward boners at the worst possible time?




i highly doubt they intended for there to be any validation coming from the options presented to us in character creation, coming from a place where some people like to pretend to be someone entirely different in games.

i appreciate the fact i get to choose, though.

[userunfriendly]

Ah. Yes. The indispensable experience.

[ ... ]

I expected to see quite a few more voluptuous female avatars... they found an unusual beta population.

Didn't you say you kept your avatar the same? But having the choice is preferable, yes.

[sicklysweet]

are you disappointed there’s no buxom women bouncing around?

[Nobody is breasting boobily besides Hector… shame.]

we’re allowed two avatars. one of them is how you’d find me in real life, and the other is different. didn’t change my face much with either of them

[userunfriendly]

Did I say that?

[ DID FAI SPILL HIS SECRET. Quit invading his reserve, Owen. ]

I've only ever seen you use one. It seems like a waste of the effort of making a second...

[sicklysweet]

no, but it felt like a safe assumption

[smh.]

would you say it's a waste to give yourself a body you prefer?

[userunfriendly]

[ He hates that he can't even say that's wrong so he'll just... move right along. ]

No. Never that.

I meant that, if you wanted to use either, I am not someone who would ask questions.

[sicklysweet]

[The silence is telling...]

can i hold you to that, though? it's rare to find people who have nothing to say.

[userunfriendly]

There's nothing I would need to know, either.

[ In hindsight, Owen's reaction to that memory had been... not unkind, exactly. ]

I make no promises on other topics. If you expect me to run an entire dungeon in perfect silence, you should say so in advance.

[sicklysweet]

[...Well, it's about the kindest anyone's taken it.]

What's the likelihood you'll actually keep quiet?

[userunfriendly]

Do I seem, to you, like someone who enjoys conversation?

[ Asks man who keeps messaging back, unwisely. ]

[sicklysweet]

you're still talking to me, so what else should i assume?

[userunfriendly]

I'm merely answering your questions. [ Just not the first one... ] If you don't want me to keep talking, you need only stop.

[sicklysweet]

you didn't answer my first question, though

[userunfriendly]

The fact that you didn't like my answer doesn't mean I didn't give one.

[ Countdown to him invoking something vulgar as a brush-off instead, 3... 2... ]

[sicklysweet]

you answered my question with a question, which is absolutely not an answer.

[userunfriendly]

And yet it so succinctly conveys that it's none of your business... Are you propositioning me?

[sicklysweet]

what? no. absolutely not.

do you WANT me to be propositioning you?

[userunfriendly]

Absolutely not. If I wanted a headache, there are faster ways to achieve that...
