[After the last post debacle, she's being only a tiny bit more careful. Just a tiny bit.

Though she sounds bored if not with a faint hint of curiosity in her tone.]

Probably not the best time for this, but I have to ask now that I've poked around a little. How many of you here are older than, say, a thousand years or so? I'm just curious.

On another note, what are your thoughts on the... captors, I suppose, feeding on the various emotions as it were? Such a thing isn't really... uncommon where I'm from, so it's always interesting to see a new side to it from those not as familiar. We have another name for them, as well, but that is something I'll leave to all of you to be curious about.

Though I'm sure someone here could enlighten you on the term if she so felt inclined.

[Excuse her while she bites back a laugh, head tilting as she regards her screen again.]

Centuries of being an emotions stealing, torturing people for my own gain, monster. I was a normal elf once but that was so long ago.

You don't get to use the time card on me, Lydia, but if that's what is gonna take, I've been around for millenniums now, and I still could change, for better. 「That's what he wishes to believe anyway.」 If you don't want to no one can make you, but you gonna have to learn to be alone.

[Oh, he said the magic word. She's frowning, all of her anger seeming to just sort of melt away despite it.

Maybe he was right, he probably was, but this whole... thing was new. You can't just go from torturing people to make them suffer and turn around and be nice, after all. At least not without some kind of end goal.]

Can't say I've ever been alone. [That's.. the actual truth, too.]

「Well, the change of attitude is confusing, a little. Though it's not the first time Lydia does that, if he remembers their first conversation. But he's been alone, for so long the sole idea is terrifying, for him. Sometimes he forgets he isn't, even now.」

And, what you gonna do about it?
