It seems we're all stuck here together like one big happy family, aren't we? Since that's the case... how about we play a little game to get to know each other?

What is most important to you in your entire life? What would you be willing to do anything for? And I do mean anything~

And please, nothing like 'friendship' or 'world peace.' Really dig down deep; we should all be honest with each other, don't you think? ❤

[feel free to answer the question or not, Joshua seems to just be very bored. what a chatty nerd!]

'become better'? thanks but no thanks. i don't need to be like you to be better.

[ At least, she thinks he's saying all this stuff because it's how he is. And she's just ... not fond of the way he's acting, okay. So she's going to continue to call him out on that. ]

[giveuponyourself]

Oh? That's very presumptuous of you. I never told you to become more like me. I only said to prove me wrong.

I definitely wouldn't kill or dismember someone for the sake of my friendships. But I don't claim that I'd do anything for them, because I know I wouldn't.

[heartslight]

[ Geez, Joshua ... ]

then what would you do those things for?

[ Time to flip it on him!! She doesn't like this being about her and about him trying to bet her to be a bad person. ]

[giveuponyourself]

Nothing, really.

Well, I've killed someone for trying to kill me once before. But I'm not going to loose an arm and a leg for anything in particular.

[heartslight]

[ Oh .... that's actually a bit shocking. And sad? ]

really? nothing?

[ She can't really blame him for that first bit, though ... ]

[giveuponyourself]

Not particularly. Like I said to others, I've already given up everything in order to get what I wanted once. It was perfectly within my power to keep it, but I chose to give it up.

After that you don't really get attached to the little things anymore.

[Don't be sad about it, he's CLEARLY trying to be smug about it!!]

[heartslight]

[ You're not making a good argument for being smug about it, buddy. She's just reading this as sad. Ah, the inability to tell a person's tone through text. ]

i'm so sorry ... i'm not sure what to say.

[ Other than sad things like 'sorry that happened to you' and such. Or curious questions, but maybe this is a time when she should give the other person their boundaries. ]

[giveuponyourself]

[the utility of the internet has betrayed him,]

Sorry? I can't imagine why you would be.

Make no mistake, it was absolutely what I wanted to do.

If that makes you sad, you must be more soft-hearted than I thought.

[heartslight]

[ Geez. ]

well what if i am? what's so wrong with that?

[ She doesn't think of herself as particularly soft hearted, but if caring about other people makes her that, then fine! ]

[giveuponyourself]

Hmm, nothing I suppose. Though that can quickly change when you come face to face with harder decisions.

I wonder how long you'll last~?

[heartslight]

how long??

[ Gosh, he makes it sound like the world's ending. ]

i'll last just fine. you'll see.

[giveuponyourself]

I look forward to seeing if you'll prove me wrong~

...but again, I doubt it.

[he's definitely just being rude by now, but the world could totally end at any moment.]
