I begin to loathe this boat nearly as much as aircraft... Going to rust in all this... damp.

Need something to keep from stiffening up. Some sort of exercise... Only so many times I can drive around these decks. Unlike some, I do not enjoy poking holes in turf, or studying these yellow creatures all day.

Hmnf.

Open to... suggestion.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah. Planes.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

I am afraid I do not know what those are.

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

Good. Torture chambers. Unstable buckets of bolts launched into the sky. With passengers.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

...

They sound...quite terrible. You have been in one?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah. Often. I despise them.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

I see. My apologies, then. No one wants to be in a situation they detest.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... All the more reason to attempt to leave this place.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

You dislike boats as well, then?

[heavyweaponsbot]

I dislike this one.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

...I see.

Have you thought of a question then, to ask the crew? In exchange for your frog, I mean.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Gave my creature away.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

Ah, that is unfortunate. I hear they are very valuable to the crew. I am waiting to use mine, I have not yet thought of a question.

...I am also in negotiations to acquire another. It is, unfortunately, a trade that I am loathe to commit to.

[heavyweaponsbot]

I intended to use it... however, the one I gave it to is far more... entertained by it than I would have been with a question.

Why?

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

Someone...special?

He is my sworn enemy. The one I told you of previously.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... "Special?"

Hmpf. Why allow it?

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

Someone that is extremely important to you.

It is...for information. The trade was dinner for the golden object. It has...also been advised by others from my world that someone...'speak' with him. I do not know how much can be gained from this.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Yeah. We are friends.

If you do not trust him... do not go alone. And make sure it is not specified in the terms of the agreement.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see.

It was not, no. However...I have a feeling he would be...very displeased if I showed up with another.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Just saying you could. It's an option.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

It is a wise observation you have made. Would you like to escort me to the meeting place, at least?

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

Fine. Nothing else to do.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

Ah, good then. I am to meet him on the eighth deck tomorrow evening.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Fine. Will be there.

[scionofwisdom.livejournal.com]

You have my gratitude. Thank you.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah yeah...
