I know you're here. I've felt your presence ever since I arrived. Don't you think it's rude, making me wait this long to hear from you?

There we are, you made your way to the truth. I knew you'd get there.

What, a guy can't play a game without having to go all detective on it as soon as he starts?

[fratropathic]

Did you really know that it was a game the entire time? I thought you sounded at least a little bit concerned for my friend's welfare at one point.

[aeturnus]

No, I was pointing out hypothetical questions. Whether it was a game or not isn't the point.

So more of an intellectual exercise, but an entertaining one.

[aeturnus]

You caught me.

[fratropathic]

It makes perfect sense, now that I think about it. I can't imagine there's very much to keep someone mentally sharp and on their toes around here, if their usual standard isn't quite kept up by things like crossword puzzles or memory matches.

[aeturnus]

The usual distractions just aren't around. Plenty to look into but what to do during downtime? Exactly.

[fratropathic]

In that case, I'm glad I could be of service.

[aeturnus]

Right, thanks for the entertainment. Hopefully you'll keep us up to date on your search.

[fratropathic]

I'll be sure to alert the press of any developments.
