How do you convince government authorities that you're not just feigning ignorance, you're actually computer technology illiterate? This is almost two hours of being told I'm a potential hacker, and while I almost laughed the first time they said it, I'm now wasting my pee break asking for help proving the only way I'll be hacking into a computer is with an axe.

private to knock out, about two hours later;

Knock Out, they're not letting me go home without a sign-off from my legal guardian, and right now you're the only one I have processed. Assistance is appreciated.

[A few minutes of laughter later...]

Just taken a shine to them, have you?

[lyingheart]

There's a certain faceted appeal.

[observationalhazard]

Would that make you a diamond in the rough, then?

[lyingheart]

Hardly. I'm just Annie.

[observationalhazard]

I think you're more than "just" Annie.

[lyingheart]

A matter of perspective.

[observationalhazard]

I really would like to learn more about you, you know. No one else seems to know anything.

[lyingheart]

Pass.

[observationalhazard]

I'm not asking for experiments, you know.

[lyingheart]

Don't care. Still a pass.

[observationalhazard]

Now, why is that?

[lyingheart]

I'm not interested in being casual acquaintances with you, or Erwin, or Levi. It's entirely personal. I'll work with you if the need ever arises, but I don't care to know you, and I don't care to be known by you. The answers you want can't come from me. Or won't. I don't want to play those kinds of games.

So pass.

[observationalhazard]

Fair enough. Thanks for the honesty!
