That's why I'm on the nerd team.

[scarvedforlife]

[ Flops himself over. ]

Okay, okay, I subject myself to questioning.

[learntofly]

[ leans down to pat his shoulder ]

I guess...first question—how much are you pretending?

[scarvedforlife]

You're going to need to be a little more specific than that.

[learntofly]

I mean...do you have any people who you'd call a real friend?

[scarvedforlife]

Hmm... I'd say I did, but they're gone or moved on now.

[learntofly]

...Is that including the team?

[scarvedforlife]

Excluding. FiN operates on a different set of applied rules.

[learntofly]

Well, good. It's not as bad as it could be.

What rules do we get?

[scarvedforlife]

Protect the softs from the cruel realities of the world.

[learntofly]

Mm-hm... And who do you think the softs are?

[scarvedforlife]

You and I both know it's completely obvious who.

[learntofly]

I know the only answer is Duality. Maybe Gadget.

[scarvedforlife]

Definitely Gadget, as good of a sassy girl she is.

[learntofly]

Okay, good.

Then it sounds like the only problem is that you suck at taking care of yourself.

[scarvedforlife]

Wow excuse you?

[learntofly]

What else do you call it when a guy admits he has no friends and pretends all the time?

[scarvedforlife]

Survival?

[learntofly]

How is pretending survival?

[scarvedforlife]

What makes game experiences complicated in Imeeji?

[learntofly]

... I think there are people here who you could be honest with without risking how they'll treat you in a game.

[scarvedforlife]

If there are, I haven't found 'em.

[learntofly]

When's the last time you actually looked?

[scarvedforlife]

I looked recently, and people are still ever eager to put their team, no matter who and how long they've known them, over everyone else.

[learntofly]

...Who would you put first instead?
