Given what you've experienced in this world, would you return to your own if given the choice?

Comments

[functusofficio]

Yes.

It seems many of us have been.

[d33tached]

Yes, it does appear to be a rather common occurrence within this world.

[Despite its gravity, he thinks.

[And now, it's time for a highly personal and invasive question - his motif.]

How did you die?

[functusofficio]

How technical would you like the answer to be?

[ It's possible she's been researching. ]

[d33tached]

[A question met with a question - usually he's the one pulling that move, but he can't say he doesn't appreciate her interest in providing him an accurate answer.

[Really, that just makes it all the more fascinating.]

You might go about explaining your answer in whatever way suits you.

I am simply curious to know.

[functusofficio]

[ It's less an interest in accuracy, and more a test of her own in turn. Games of words are something she's generally been good at, and she finds herself curious about this one even if the subject is one she has grown to dislike even as she has driven herself to prove that it is something she is not bothered by. ]

Damage caused by asphyxiation leading to induced labor that proved difficult.

[ It's what the information here she has found tells her, at least, though the true answer is a great deal more complex than that. ]

I am owed an answer in return. Why is how someone else died something you would wish to know?

[d33tached]

Your choosing to have answered me does not result in my owing you anything.

I am simply curious to know.

[D33 is no stranger to word games himself.]

You suffocated.

How?

[Let's see if she'll keep playing.]

[functusofficio]

I am curious in turn.

You have answered my question in a way - I admire the general nature of your answer and its lack of any real information.

I will answer your questions should you answer mine, but should you choose to remain vague I will as well.

[d33tached]

I know not what sort of answer you might be seeking in your question, but I am afraid that I have little else to provide.

Truly, I am only curious to know.

Or is it something else that you are meaning to ask?

Perhaps you should better present your inquiry, in that case.

[This is almost kind of fun.]

[functusofficio]

You are asking highly personal information with curiosity as it's only purpose.

Whatever I ask would also hold only curiosity as its motivation for inquiry.

But I see no reason to satisfy your curiosity without some measure of return.

[d33tached]

What is it, then, that you would like to ask?

[functusofficio]

If curiosity is truly your only motivation, then I will continue to answer your questions with the understanding that for each question I answer, I have the right to ask a question at a future point and receive an honest answer.
