I already know I have free will. That's not what I asked.

[2804]

What was the question again?

( ugh, she doesn't want to answer this. )

[beatsfor]

Would you like me to go bother someone else for shits and giggles, and leave you alone?

[2804]

( ugh mrgh blergh feelings. )

No.

( shut up. )

[beatsfor]

There you go. Good girl.

[2804]

( she hates that she likes reading that from rio of all people. )

Shut up.

[beatsfor]

Say please.

[2804]

And if I don't?

[beatsfor]

Then I guess I don't shut up.

[2804]

Who are you kidding, even if I said please, you wouldn't shut up.

[beatsfor]

Maybe I would, you don't know til you try.

[2804]

( time to prove that she's right. )

Shut up.

Please.

[it is extremely unlikely this is going to last any longer than 3-5 minutes

but for 3-5 minutes, there is no reply]

[2804]

Blessed silence.

( that she really doesn't like all that much. talk, rio! )

[beatsfor]

[5... 4... 3... 2... 1...]

You didn't specify how long to shut up for.

[2804]

( about time. )

The fact that you did it for any length of time is actually amazing.

[beatsfor]

I like to subvert expectations.

Although it would also have been funny to just say 'Nah.'

[2804]

That's almost as bad as k.

[beatsfor]

Is it? I'll have to remember that.

[2804]

Text me that and I will leave you on read for a decade.

[beatsfor]

[It's SO tempting to use it in this reply.]

You've ignored me for longer than that before.

[2804]

And I'm sure it was an utterly lonely time for you.

[beatsfor]

You know how many dead there are? How many people die daily? I kept busy.

( oops, sore spot. time to dig in deeper. )

I'm sure you did. Doing your job without any excitement in your life that I provide. Just reaping souls and going home to do what? Crossword puzzles? Sudoku? Maybe you got into soap operas!

[beatsfor]

Hey, some soap operas are pretty entertaining. That one where the lady thought the pillow on her couch was a kid? I was invested in her craziness.
