Is this thing for real?

And are both of those forms yours? You didn't take either of them?

Both mine. Why?

No reason. Aaaaabsolutely none.

Oh come on, do the math. Would YOU want to have drinks with a bodysnatcher?

Yes, but you shouldn't use me as a reference for good sense, or so I've been told.

And this is how we get back to 'no, never, not doing it'.

Aw, c'mon. Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

Nothing ventured, nothing lost either. Like limbs.

Limbs are replaceable though. Well. Mostly.

Not for everyone. And I thought you said you WEREN'T a bodysnatcher. Parts still count.

Ew, no, I don't steal other peoples' body parts, gross. D:

What else does replaceable MEAN? If it came from you, that would be REGROWABLE or RENEWABLE or RETURNABLE.

I was thinking of cybernetics or enchanted limb replacements actually. Both are really popular back home. Here, too.

Yeah, I'll just keep to the limbs I started with. They're a set and all.

No-one's saying you have to replace them.

...do your arguments ACTUALLY work on anyone?

Of course they do. Better in person though; most communication is non-verbal, and text doesn't even convey tone. It can, but the question is, is it worth the effort?

So basically... magic. Not really arguments. That's what I'm hearing here.

What? No, I could use magic over an interface like this. But why would I? It wouldn't be as much fun.

Uh-huh. Right. That's totally why you want to see me in person.

...not familiar with too many paranoids, are you?

Wrong again, I know lots of them. They're usually right too. But just because they're really out to get you doesn't mean you shouldn't have fun.

I think everyone should push the shiny magic button, even if it's just once. Just so the 'maybes' and 'what-ifs' don't start gnawing at your psyche as well.

I just want you to know that I AM going to push the button, but not because of your arguments.

It's because I make bad life decisions and I'm due for one.

Just so we're clear.
