I think you still try to blend in from time to time.
[ it's fine. she prefers if he doesn't ask anything in return. that's why she asks her questions half the time.... to keep others from asking any in return. ]
[She is so funny and so right. i think about how many of my characters would never get to know her by virtue of being too polite and then this fuck who is the exact opposite but still terrible at getting to know people.]
[The thought of someone trying to eat his synthetic ass is frankly hilarious.]
It wouldn't be. I'd never eat a human, though. [Not because he respects the sanctity of life too much to be a cannibal.] And I have a hard time imagining being eaten, though I guess all bets are off if people have been turned into bars of chocolate and cheese.
[For fun and profit! It happens. Also he was indeed talking about murder methods but honestly he finds this just as valid if not more so, and he just laughs a little.]
I don't think I've heard of any place where that's happened so far, but we could always be the first.

Is that where the line is drawn for you? If you feel your dignity is impugned?
no subject
Cruel and unusual in the overarching definition of it.
[Not necessarily personal; he might still find it funny, depending.]
no subject
So you have some sense of morality.

I've lived among humans long enough to understand their definitions, at least.

I don't operate by them. They apply within the confines of humanity, so it isn't a matter of agreeing or disagreeing.

[IT KILLS ME AKI BECAUSE HE HARDLY EVER ASKS ANY IN RETURN but it's fine because he also just refuses to indulge after a first few.
Maybe he is a hermit. Maybe he is.]

she knows she's right because even if she doesn't know what larping means, she remembers enough of his profile. ]
I do. For whatever reasons, you do.
no subject
He just shrugs, though, since he has no reason to hide it.]
For whatever reasons, I do.
[Meandering off to go look at another display.]
no subject
she watches him go, doesn't follow him yet, only faintly calls out after him. ]
Enough reasons to keep looking at all of this.
no subject
For lack of anything better to do, really.
no subject
That's why I'm here, too. Do you think using any of these would garner another achievement?
[ asked idly in a tone that says she doesn't care much about achievements. ]
no subject
But he'll glance around at the cases...]
...Someone being eaten does sound iconic.

[ on a technicality for a coward's way out. ]
People should just kill people as they are.

[ if they have to keep dealing with trials, that's the ideal. let her leave early.
he might be asking about murder methods, but this is what she cares about more. ]

[ there is little hope they will be, but talking about it won't hurt her if she doesn't actually believe in it. ]
