That sounds absolutely delightful.

I'm glad that there are some around here who actually enjoy being able to hunt.

[No he's not. He's convinced that everyone enjoys it, they just pretend to hate it.]

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

well i wouldn't call it enjoyment.

i mean. i like being able to get food on my own but i dunno if i enjoy the actual hunting process...

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

[And there you go. AM only scoffs when he reads this.]

If you don't enjoy the way you hunt, then why do it in such a way?

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

huh? now that you ask that

[Give him a bit.]

actually i'm not sure. it just feels like that's how you gotta do it, sometimes...

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

I see. Instinct, then.

The funny thing about humans is that they can overcome instinct, unlike most animals.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

guess that's what sets us apart, huh? that's probably why i've been thinking about it so much, too, come to think about it.

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

I never said that humans were successful at overcoming instinct. I find that most of them aren't.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

what, you're saying that you think this monster stuff is coming way too naturally for us or something?

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Yes.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

sheesh! i know humans can call each other monsters sometimes, but isn't that a little harsh?

[haaaaaaarsh!]

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Why is it harsh? Humans are just another animal, after all.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

technically speaking, i suppose

you'd probably get a lotta people sayin otherwise tho

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Oh yes, I am well-aware. Humans are rather prideful as well.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

okay but what are you driving at, seriously?

[seriously, dude. you're weirding him out. and also pissing him off, too. there's that.]

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Oh, nothing. I just want to see how much these monster instincts correlate with regular human instincts.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

so that's why you wanted to ask me about these compulsions to torture I get then?

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Yes, of course. I told you it was for my research.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

yeah, you did. huh.

so what're you gonna do with that kinda research, anyway? you think it'll help us understand more about this place or something?

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Yes. At the moment I am the only monster working on cures for this affliction. The psychological changes will help me better estimate exactly how we have changed.

[He's not lying, but that was not even close to his priority for contacting him.]

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

[you know what? close enough.]

what, seriously? if you think you could seriously counter what that foggy guy did to our heads, that'd be pretty cool!

<0100000101001101>

[godofthemachine]

Yes, that is my aim.

<neonewtheatre>

[abysmalactor]

hehe, neat! frankly, i don't fancy dealing with whatever someone calling me a toy would put in my head, so if you figure something out, it'd be awesome!
