Sometimes. The rules are my rules but sometimes I take suggestions.

[ He's assuming a lot here, but he thinks he knows what he's talking about. ] You don't like people knowing what you sound like. What you look like. It's why you use text. I'd call that a secret.

And you wouldn't want someone to spread pictures of you around. Think that's fair to say?

[There's a pause before she responds this time. Lie early in the conversation. Do not tell truths and then backtrack.]

I use text because I am stupid and I do not know how to not use text.

[bywolves]

[ He rolls his eyes. ] I don't believe for a second that you're stupid. You knew exactly where to hit me. That's smart.

Lie or don't lie, I don't care. Take what I said as a hypothetical scenario.

[ecks]

Hypothetical.

Done.

[ Royce SIGHS HEAVILY. ]

If you had a secret, you wouldn't want people to pass it around. Right?

[ecks]

That is correct. If I had a secret I would not want people to pass it around.

[bywolves]

What I am. A half elf, a mir, a flower-sucker. Whatever you want to call it. That is a secret. And I do not want it passed around, either.

Seems like a decent rule to me. Don't tell other people's secrets unless they give you permission.

[ecks]

I did not know that was a secret.

[And one she already passed around -- or at least, told to Doctor Watson. It does sound like a good rule, but it presents her with a conundrum.]

Is that one of your rules?

[bywolves]

It is a secret. Now you know.

And you could call it something like that, yes. [ Royce doesn't have any sort of list, isn't that organized - but he doesn't look for chances to hurt or fuck people over. Secrets can ruin. And he only ruins when they try to ruin him first. ]

[ecks]

The way I look is a secret. The way I sound is a secret. What I am is a secret.

I will use this rule going forward. It is a good rule.

[bywolves]

[ He thinks about it, and then: ] We can keep each other's secrets, then. Sound reasonable?

[ecks]

That is reasonable.
