EIGHTY-TWO

[tehpuck]

I seem to have something I do not want.

Anyone who comments on the irony of that will be promptly ignored.

Besides the absence of a friend, I have a corpse. Because of the nature of this City, it will not be a corpse for very much longer, but a corpse all the more. Or less

What happened?

[fowlprodigy]

For someone who is so desperate to "teach" me you are quick to mistrust me as well. I am coming to help now.

[tehpuck]

As would you do in the same situation.

He's still a corpse, now. When he revives in some hours, we'll see.

[fowlprodigy]

As much as I hate to admit it, you are correct.

Let me know when he revives then.

[tehpuck]

As per usual.

I'm sure you'll hear him, unless he's far more controlled than anyone could let on.

[fowlprodigy]

...

That I will keep in mind. For now I have other things that I need to attend to.

[tehpuck]

I'd be rather disappointed if you didn't; you are supposed to be some sort of genius.

[fowlprodigy]

Not supposed to. I am a genius.

[tehpuck]

You've yet to prove it besides breaking into my belongings, which is negated because you had hours to do so.

[fowlprodigy]

That is not proof that I am a genius. That is proof that I have a past as a criminal, more specifically a thief. Besides, it did not take me hours to get to your belongings.

[tehpuck]

Exactly my point. And nonetheless, you had hours.

[fowlprodigy]

Had hours and yet all that time wasn't required. After you I had plenty of time to have four other victims.

[tehpuck]

Than what a capable thief you are-- if a bit thick in the head.

[fowlprodigy]

...So you are as rude as you are vexing.

[tehpuck]

I am whatever I wish to be.

[fowlprodigy]

Yes. I have noticed that.
