[Voice/Text] a perpetual possibility only in a world of speculation

"Right. Well, you could be real. Or, you could all be mildly disturbing and possibly tumor-induced figments of my admittedly well-developed imagination.

Who wants to play Twenty Questions?"

Ah good, I was afraid I'd be left talking to myself here. Although that is the entire point of this exercise, isn't it? Establishing whether or not I'm talking to myself.

Anyway...questions. Do you have a name?

I do.

And you also have either a very literal mind or you like taking strangers for a ride.

Second question, then: what is your name?

The next voice to respond is female - with a very faint South Carolina accent, one she's worked to lessen over the years, but there's still a hint of it.

"Maybe me- do I get to ask questions, too, next round?"

"Well that isn't usually how this goes, but why not. Why do you want to ask me questions?"

"Curiosity." She'd rather be the one asking the questions, actually, but she wouldn't have responded if she really minded answering them. Hasi's not always hugely open with personal information (rarely, in fact), but she does like games.

This one's harmless, compared to the sort she usually plays.

Honestly Tony is mostly harmless, unless you've got a history of gruesomely murdering people, anyway.

"Do you expect to find out anything interesting?"

"Are the questions trying to determine whether we're imaginary or not?"

The young woman sounds curious, and maybe a bit amused.

"Ah, you're getting ahead of the game, I'm supposed to ask the questions, you're supposed to answer them."

Tony doesn't seem put out by that, more just amused as well.

"Man, you're straight down to business."

Her accent, while subtle, is a bit odd; nexus child will do that. It's mostly 21st century American (maybe some hints of the midwest), but there are also traces of something that is like 18th century Russian that most people would miss.

"Sure, I'll play."

"I'm not good with small talk." This is the understatement of the year. "What's your favorite color?"

Desperately.

Why desperately?

Oh good God. Is that one of the questions?

[text] inveteratescars July 26 2010, 03:58:38 UTC
I'm afraid it is. Still want to play?

That...wasn't one of the questions.

"What the hell."

Cool and sarcastic, with just a hint of boredom.

"What the hell indeed." Tony's tone is wry, and not bored in the least. "Why play?"

[Voice] hellboundsoul July 26 2010, 03:46:49 UTC
"Don't have anything else to do."

"That's a sad state of affairs. Do you believe in God?"
