"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?"

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?"

"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.

"Do you expect to find out anything interesting?"

Fortunately Hasi just dates people who do that! And it was only one time. So far.
"There's something interesting about everybody," she opines, "and people who say there's nothing interesting about them are usually the ones with the most to tell."

There's a considering pause.
"Probably." She can't think of any reason to lie at present time, anyway.

"Do you often engage strangers in conversation?"

She can draw her own conclusions from the lack of follow-up.
"More than average. Maybe not often." It is, after all, part of her job - but she'd probably do some of it anyway. She's always been social, but sometimes she's content with just existing around other people, and lately she's had more reason to be occasionally withdrawn when she's not on the clock.

Sometimes Tony has to be reminded that not every conversation is a clinical evaluation.

She doesn't quite laugh, but there's a breath of that in the sudden understanding that fills her voice. She has a few guesses about her questioner, now.
"It really depends. But I get ESTP and ENTP more than I get INFJ - but the results always depend on my mood."
Yes, she's talking about the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, because the way he phrased that question reminds her intensely of college.

"Well, those sorts of tests are really only much good for people who are very honest and know themselves very well. Which leaves an enormous percentage of the population thinking they're introverts when they really crave social interaction and empathic when they actually have no concept of how to relate to other people's experiences at all."

Now she is laughing- she likes the matter-of-fact answer, even if she's much more of a roundabout sort, most of the time. (The difficulty with playing everything to everyone and attempting to be little miss perfect bohemian hedonist is you have to be a lot of different people.)
"So what you're saying is, maybe I'm a liar or deluded? Hmm?"

Hasibe makes a tiny little agreeable noise there - true enough. She doesn't even know what she is, she can't say she knows who she is, either, though she does try.
"Cigarettes," she drawls, and then there's another quick laugh. "No, no--I don't know, it's hard to pick. There's a dessert with rose petals my grandmother used to make in Sulaimaniyah."
