Who: Leto + You
Broadcast: Text
Action: SS Blameless
When: August 4th

So it seems we've returned to enclosed quarters once more. Let's play a game to liven things up.

Who would you fuck, marry or kill on the Fleet?

I suppose to make it even harder, you could limit it to your ship.

i thought you knew of your importance to me.

I am aware.

then we are talking in circles.

There's nothing wrong with circles.

I'm mostly teasing though.

i would remind you often if you wished it.
but i am learning. to tease, and use 'sarcasm'.

I have no doubt you'll impress me with it soon enough.

i find it odd.
meg said that i was too literal.

She's not wrong.

What about that confuses you?

i do not understand the tone.
i hear what people say and take it as truth.

But not everyone speaks truly.

no. i have learned that.
i will also learn the truth in sarcasm.

There is truth everywhere.

Though the existence of a person's truth is different from the next.

of course.
what we know and what they know differ.
it is the downfall of different worlds.

It is the downfall of any place. Any world, any person. No one here has the ability of truth-sense.

for that i am glad.
i wish to choose what to tell others.

In what sense?

those with the knowledge of truth and lies know when i avoid speaking of things.
some might push for answers where i do not wish to give them.
i cannot allow that.

The people here should not be so pushy.

perhaps you should tell them so.

It is not my purview to advise.

only to comment?

I am not anyone's oracle.

perhaps that is for the better.
few here need such frank guidance, nor would they accept it.

Everyone needs guidance. Even me.

But I cannot play oracle. It is dangerous and insidious and no one here understands the nature of time.

guidance, yes, but frankness? perhaps not.
i trust your word, and your judgement on yourself.
