☠ eight [translated from eldritch] (backdated to 5 pm)

It's a pity that our Mayor was murdered the night before.
How disappointing that there wasn't any bravado about it over the Network. Maybe a mysterious recording with his corpse in view.
My congrats to whomever did it, really. I'm impressed.
Perhaps we should start a betting pool on how long it takes before the criminal is caught. My money's on two weeks.
Any takers?
That aside, I picked up a violin recently since I seem to lack hobbies here. Any suggestions on pieces I should learn how to play?


[ a slight pause and then added ]

Eridan.

Your attempts are so sad, Rose. I really expected better.

It isn't my intention to merely upset you.

My core motivation is always to seek truth, and thus acquire knowledge. The implicit motivations do vary with... Subject involvement.

Don't flatter yourself, that's my impulse with everyone. Well -- not impulse.

Compulsion, perhaps.

And a compulsion that's notably less destructive than how other people use their peers. Because that is our social engagement, as a species.

Don't get me wrong, Rose. I use all my friends, just as they use me. I allow them that privilege because of who they are, what they mean to me. It's mutually beneficial, a symbiotic relationship. I certainly understand why the idea can be disagreeable to some, but I'm being quite honest with you.
