Frankly, sir, you are just one more thing in this absurd little world filled up with tropes and notions that seem more suited to fiction than truth.
I'm aware my opinions are in the minority in this, so I'll hardly waste any more time sharing it, lest you hunt me down where I sleep to bother me.

[liverletdie]

Wait.

[liverletdie]

You. You are calling Me a trope more suited to fiction?

You?

[adamantlyardent]

Is this the part where you chortle and remark on how quaint that is?

[liverletdie]

No it's just funny.

I would have said the same thing about you.

[adamantlyardent]

My condolences. It can't be enjoyable literature.

[liverletdie]

What, you're not saying you had a bad life, are you?

[adamantlyardent]

I refuse to believe you'd find anything I lived through at all worthwhile or interesting.

[liverletdie]

I think that you would be surprised by what I find interesting or worthwhile.

I did spend some time in King Arthur's court, you know. I have lived lives that aren't anything like my own.

[adamantlyardent]

The novelty theme park and restaurant in Heropa?

[liverletdie]

That's a cheap knock-off of the real thing.
In my world, it actually happened. Camelot, Sword in the lake, and all.

[adamantlyardent]

How much of that time was spent belittling the culture compared to your so-much-better scientific sensibilities?

[liverletdie]

Well, I've been there multiple times, and most of it I was trying to get back...

But not much. This may surprise you, but I actually made friends. To be fair, I had to help save us from Morgan le Fay...

Besides, I couldn't really do much "advanced science" until I won their trust that I wasn't a witch.

[adamantlyardent]

You're right: I am surprised.
I'm also reminded to not trust everything I read.

[liverletdie]

About which thing? King Arthur? It's all legends anyway, the only way to really know what happened is to live through it.

[adamantlyardent]

And scoff at the stories, right?

[liverletdie]

No, I mostly do that to get a rise out of people when they're not listening.

[liverletdie]

Or when magic is involved. That's not personal, though, that's just because it's magic.

[adamantlyardent]

I don't understand what you're trying to do here. Truly, I don't.

[liverletdie]

Most people generally can't figure that out, you're not alone.

Honestly? There's always some angle. With this, I'm trying to figure out why you're going around talking about me online, but I'm starting to think it's just a bit of a grudge from a few interactions.

[adamantlyardent]

Please don't assume I went out of my way to remark on YOUR specific lunacy as if you are special for it. You were just one of many who decided to be stupid and go out there, you know! Do tell me you can see more than what's directly in front of and reflecting you.

[liverletdie]

Well there were certainly were other articles, with other people, you know.

You did choose to pick MINE. How could I think anything less?

[adamantlyardent]

I suppose not. You DID go to the creepy extent of sleuthing down anonymous remarks about you; it's not like you'd peruse any further to find similar comments about others besides.
Are we done here?

[liverletdie]

It took me less than a minute...

But sure, if you've got nothing else, we can be.
