[Caster's bored, and she hasn't started a war in a while, so at some point when no one's looking too hard, an anonymous text post appears on the network:]

Which are cuter, cats or dogs?

[expellerhead]

Some cats, on occasion. But if we're talking overall, dogs are by far the needier of the two.

[castrationfist]

Do you have a lot of experience with both, then?

[expellerhead]

I have adequate experience.

Do YOU have a vote in this?

[castrationfist]

I can't tell my vote, that would be biasing the data!

[expellerhead]

I don't see how. You're anonymous, aren't you? Kind of hard to be influenced by a poll-giver's authority when you don't know who they are.

[castrationfist]

But some people are weak-willed enough to be influenced by that anyway.

[it takes some finagling and he's sure anybody with any skills could hack it, but that's at least good enough as a 'do not disturb' sign]

There, now it's just you and me. No weak-willed prying eyes.

[castrationfist]

[... Huh. Well, that's not quite enough yet, but she is a bit amused.]

You are persistent, aren't you? If you keep this up, women will hate you, you know.
It's rude to pry into a lady's personal life!

private

[expellerhead]

I'm not concerned with what's considered rude. But if you aren't interested in sharing, I'll just guess what your answer is.

private

[castrationfist]

Now you have my curiosity.
Go ahead, guess!

private

[expellerhead]

Foxes.

[yeah he read your other conversations]

private

[castrationfist]

Eavesdropping now, too?!
How rude!
I hope you're prepared for a thousand curses!

private

[expellerhead]

I'm weak-willed against curiosity, sorry. It's the cat thing.

private

[castrationfist]

There's a limit to how much you can resemble one of those mangy hairballs!

private

[expellerhead]

I also don't personally mind dogs, but it didn't seem like you were interested in any fence-straddling.

private

[castrationfist]

Dogs are even worse!
I got chased all the way to Nasu by dogs. I'd banish them all from Japan if I could!

private

[expellerhead]

You hate them both? Why ask a question involving either of them then?

private

[castrationfist]

One is still better than the other.
And I like to know if round ears are better than pointed ears.

private

[expellerhead]

Pointed is objectively better.

private

[castrationfist]

Well, at least you have the right answer there!
