exsilium | 001

[The sounds of outside filter through the network, distant with little to be heard beyond the faint rustle of the wind, but there nonetheless. A distinctive clink-fwoosh of a lighter disrupts anything further, followed by the slow crackle of burning paper and tobacco and a satisfied inhale and steady exhale. When he finally speaks, it's with a tone that lacks interest.]

Well, isn't this quaint. Doubt I would have believed it were I not seeing it with my own eyes. At least the woman greeting me was persuasive enough. [You can practically hear the dirty little smirk.]

Even so, I'm not quite sure how I feel out of my home and sent on my merry way towards college kid dorm rooms. Or rather, I'm perfectly aware of how I feel about it, just the words I'm looking for aren't for public ears.

Still. Judging by the archives on this thing, there's plenty of you about who know this world, so come on, share your wisdom with an outsider, would you? One can never know too much.

[A pause as he inhales another lungful of smoke, eventually adding with a thoughtful exhale:] Oh, and don't patronise me with the basics. I'm curious, not stupid.

You can sit on it and wait for the future to be more interesting. Or I can at least you'd probably just die of old age or murder or something.

[Oh, teehee, death, his funny bone has been struck.] It sounds like you have some experience on the matter.

What you mean death because no I haven't managed to try that one yet.

I should hope not. Not really the sort of thing a chap makes a habit of.

People have all sorts of strange habits you never really know.

Most don't come back from a habit like death.

You must be talking to the wrong people.

Apparently so. You're aware of people who do come back from it?

They do here apparently I wouldn't know. Again I haven't had the pleasure.

People come back from death?

Was your vision temporarily impaired I'll type it again if you're really that unfortunate.

If you could type it out again, I'd be ever so grateful.

Well save your gratitude for someone who hates you less because I'm not going to.

[Amuuuused!]

That's not very nice.

I'm pleased to say I've never been accused of being nice.

I can't imagine why. You seem perfectly amiable other than that slight moment.

Well then I'd really better start trying harder hadn't I. Let's save some time and you can tell me right now how I can make you loathe me as thoroughly as I already loathe you.

Buy me a good bottle of whiskey. I'd absolutely despise you after that.

Feel free to imagine scornful laughter right here just go right ahead.

Am I to take that as a yes? I really could do with a bottle.

You're welcome to take it as a no I wouldn't get alcohol for you if you were the last human on earth instead I would most likely be busy celebrating their iminent exstinction.

I get the feeling you don't have many friends.

Oh look at you sharp as a tack.

Perhaps you need to work on your social skills.

What and risk people hanging around me no thank you.
