<saturnschild>

[marcato]

I'm all ears.

< KEEPER >

[godofthemachine]

I'll give you a guess.

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

A kindred spirit.

< KEEPER >

[godofthemachine]

Very correct. :)

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

You're either AM, or someone I haven't met yet.

Both possibilities are enticing.

< KEEPER >

[godofthemachine]

Oh-ho, am I that obvious or are you just too clever?

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

I don't meet many people who think the way I do.

I can practically taste your curiosity. Your rage. It's magnificent.

< KEEPER >

[godofthemachine]

You flatter me, my dear.

I'm sure you cannot blame me for taking advantage of the fact that everyone seems compelled to tell all.

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

Hardly. I've indulged a little myself.

You do know Marco, don't you?

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

[No sense in hiding it. AM switches to his regular handle.]

I do wonder why you and I haven't been afflicted. But perhaps we're just lucky.

I do know Marco. I know him very well.

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

He told me you killed him once.

At least once.

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Did he now? And what was the context of this conversation?

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

I killed him.

But I wanted him to reminisce first.

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Oh. This pleases me. Tell me, how did you kill him?

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

Slowly. And with his permission.

I'd love to tell you more about it. Over drinks, perhaps?

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

With his permission, hm? I am very curious. You must tell me all about it. Over drinks sounds like a pleasant idea.

<saturnschild>

[marcato]

It isn't appropriate to discuss murder in public, unfortunately. And I don't trust you well enough to tell you where I live.

A hotel room, perhaps? I'd love to spend more time with you in an intimate setting.

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

You don't trust me? That's a shame. You probably already know where I live.

But yes, I would very much love to meet with you at a hotel. The Lucky 38 perhaps?
