004. With no alarms, and no surprises

For those of you who were wondering what happens if those insipid little stones we were given break: I still wouldn't necessarily recommend it until we're certain that it's absolutely nothing, but...

...Well, I certainly don't feel any different, either.

Oh, very much so.

Though, I do believe people would mean funny in another less-flattering way.

Possibly.

[wow, cumore.]

I'm going to guess that troubles you?

No, it doesn't trouble me at all. Have you noticed how odd I am? Are you all right? Has being on this app warped your view of so much on the average person?

Oh, believe me, I've noticed. Some people just take that sort of assertion better than others, and it's difficult to tell with you whether you're actually just very flippant, or if the lady doth protest too much, if you follow.

Ah, most fair.

But no, it doesn't bother me.
I've accepted I'm quite odd.

Good for you, then. ♡

...Legitimately. Confidence in who one is as a person goes a long way, it's pathetic when people have no sense of themselves.

The delusions that people wrap themselves in is just another word called "perspective." There's nothing wrong with it, however. You have your own perspectives about yourself, don't you?

Such as mine that I think I could ever be funny.

So do you believe all notions of self-perception and perspective to be delusions of one kind of another? Or is that more your way of saying that such things can never be objective fact due to their nature?

Are those two questions really mutually exclusive?
Isn't it a little bit of both?

They aren't mutually exclusive, but nor are they exclusively mutual, necessarily...?

Now you are getting it.

Well, yes, but one doesn't have to imply the other, either.

It doesn't have to, but it does.

Such is the contradiction of humans, right?

If we're taking that as objective fact, I suppose...?

[send help]

Indeed, if we are, then it is.

And if we choose not to?

Then it isn't, of course.

Glad we could clear that up.

It only took a little bit of time, Alexander Cumore.

Do you call everyone by full name like that?

No.

What are the exceptions?

Hm? You'd like me to stop, then? Very well since it doesn't put me out, Alexander, your request and question are both answered.

...Please don't. I promise you that that was not a request.
