1. are you a little kid? like youre under ten years old maybe

2. do you have dream powers like seeing peoples dreams?

3. if youre a guy are you nice? maybe youre a "good guy" where you come from or a hero

[Vivi's vaguely curious about the village, it seems. Really, she's just looking for people she might be less afraid of ( Read more... )

[More questions to answer. The scrawl on the screen looks childish, and the pink makes it exceedingly unprofessional, but Robert uses his most precise script anyway because he's just that pretentious. (He doesn't realize he's pretentious, though.)]

1. I am not a youth, no. I am twenty four Terran years old, to be precise.

2. The only dreams that I can "see" are my own, though I suppose with an fMRI module and a brain scanner I could witness those of others. At present I possess neither, however. [Robert completely misses the point on this one.]

3. I am male-identified, yes. As for whether I am a "good guy", I suppose that depends on your definition of good. I adhere to strict codes of humanism and I am a pacifist, as well as a dedicated scientist and intellectual. I believe these are positive qualities in a person.

4. I was personally unaffected by the last experiment, so I cannot answer this question for myself. But I found it quite... distressing. As I had only been in Luceti for a few days at that point, it was an exceedingly ( ... )

I will try not to make you feel that way with me. [Robert isn't sure why Vivi would be frightened of men specifically, but he figures that whatever the reason is, it's probably due to someone being imbecilic to her at some point.]

But it's okay if you are nervous. Being nervous is something understandable.

[Yeah, pretty much all the males with power in her world were after her at some point. Tends to really skew your views on genders. :|a]

Please feel free to ask me any question you like.

[Literally any question. Robert doesn't have much of a filter.]

[Not a question Robert usually finds himself answering...]

Well. Sometimes my dreams are happy... but usually they aren't so happy. [Like the ones about the drugs. And Benjamin.]

They can be... scary sometimes, but not enough for me to call them nightmares.

I usually forget them after awhile, though.

[...A frustrating lack of information. This is pretty normal for most people. She'll poke a bit further at that.]

what are the scary dreams about if youre okay with telling me?

[Robert is mostly ashamed of them.]

... It's... a little hard for me to talk about.

... But they're about things that were... stupid, that I did in the past. Times when I made many mistakes.

It's okay, there's nothing wrong with asking questions. Doing that means you want to learn. [And learning is always a good thing. Even when it makes him a little uncomfortable.]

...thats what my mom says

[Said, rather. Miss Knowledge hasn't really spoken up about that yet.]

Then your mom is a smart woman too, because that is a very smart thing to tell you. [Oh, if only Robert knew the half of it.]

[She'll tell him some day. Maybe.]

hee hee thanks mister Hastings :> Ill make sure to tell her you said that

[...Sadly, this is a promise she can't keep, but maybe she'll tell Patchy about it.]

Re: [Written] semper_cogitans February 20 2011, 01:31:59 UTC
[That is, if Robert doesn't discover who she is first himself. (Which is admittedly fairly unlikely.)]

I look forward to meeting both of you together someday.

[...Well, just in case he really IS some kind of bad guy, it'd be best to have Patchy nearby anyway. So...]
