First Consensus

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

It's bad form not to accept what's being given. Not polite at all. Nohow.

Contrarywise, one shouldn't take what hasn't been given. Very rude conduct, that.
If there's someone to give it, it's given. If there's no one, it ain't.

That's logic.

Huh?

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

If you're going to ask a question, you ought to phrase it properly. That's good manners.
It's not good form to make us guess. Nohow.

[kch_kch]

Did someone steal something from you?

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

Nohow. Don't have much to steal.

Contrarywise, if we did, someone might have.

[kch_kch]

Ah, well, I'm glad to hear that.

Although in that case I'm still a bit puzzled why you sent this message out.

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

Education.

Contrarywise, edification.

Identification.

[kch_kch]

[?] What are you identifying?

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

Circumstances.

[kch_kch]

Oh, of course. Circumstances.

[Knowing nod. Yep, he has not a clue. But these guys are a bit unnerving, even if they sort of remind him of himself and Tulio...]

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

Circumstances can lead to bad decisions, and those are always to be avoided.

[kch_kch]

No doubt. Of course, circumstances can also lead to good decisions.

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

Naturally.

[kch_kch]

Do either of you have names, by any chance?

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

Of course we do. All things have names.

But if you're trying to ask what they are, you ought to phrase it properly.

[kch_kch]

Fine, fine. What are your names? Mine's Miguel.

[twixt_dee_n_dum]

We are Tweedledee--

and Tweedledum.
