[bobsicle]

It's a holiday where people get into spooky costumes, watch scary movies, and eat candy. [ Best summary of it, he thinks. ]

I take it I'm one of those spooky sluts, then?

[vintsparkler]

Oh, then the message I sent out makes a lot more sense now.

Perhaps, but I don’t honestly think you a slut.

[bobsicle]

Yeah, I'm glad to provide the context.

Then how do you see me?

[vintsparkler]

mmh… well, you don’t seem nearly so promiscuous, so far more innocent, despite your capabilities.

[bobsicle]

Wouldn't say innocent, but thanks for thinking so, Dorian.

[vintsparkler]

Then what would you say?

[bobsicle]

I honestly don't know, to be fair. Maybe just average?

[vintsparkler]

No, average is boring. You are not boring.

[bobsicle]

What adjective do you think best describes me, then?

[vintsparkler]

Generous.

[bobsicle]

Oh, that's actually

Very generous of you, Dorian. [ See what he did there. ]

Why, though?

[vintsparkler]

Because you are. With sharing your views, experiences, kind words and touch.

[bobsicle]

That's really kind of you to say.

This just means I'm standing by what I said that you're a generous man, too.

[vintsparkler]

You’re welcome.

Well, I’m not exactly trying to disprove it.

[bobsicle]

And I wouldn't want you to either.

Okay, one word I'll describe you, too, is thoughtful.

[ Is he somehow turning this into a game of Describe Each Other With One Word? Maybe. ]

[vintsparkler]

No, but it could be fun, see if you believe some of the things I say.

[ would be like a game of two truths and a lie. ]

Oh, you can do better than that.

[bobsicle]

[ Maybe that's a better game. ]

Fine, let's do what you suggested instead. Sounds fun. I think I'll enjoy trying to figure out if you're telling the truth or not.

[vintsparkler]

Alright, spot the lie.
1. I was expelled from university.
2. Wine is my favorite drink.
3. I can’t swim.

[bobsicle]

[ Wow, this is actually hard. So there's a brief delay on Bobby's end. ]

Maybe number 3? [ Totally just a wild guess. ]

[vintsparkler]

Correct, it was almost 2, because wine moves around on my list of favorites. Depends on where it’s from.

[bobsicle]

Wow! I got it right! That's really cool.

What's your favorite kind of wine, then?

[vintsparkler]

How did you figure that out?

Red, specifically from my home, Tevinter.

[bobsicle]

Process of elimination, I guess? You're smart so I'm sure you wouldn't be expelled.

And you also like to drink. So wine has to be up there somewhere.

What's Tevinter like?

[vintsparkler]

Oh, I was expelled.

But you’re right, I do make my love of wine known.

Humid. Laden with as much history as corruption.

[bobsicle]

Oh, I misread that as you weren't expelled so I guess my victory earlier is a fluke.

Sorry to hear about the corruption from your home, though.
