Take me to your leader

[Yang]

Hi!

Your number was in this thing called a Phone Book.

Tell me...

What do you know about

earthworms?

@open

[Toda Hitomaro]

Um

Wriggly noodle bug things that live in dirt

Is what I think of

[Yang]

Interesting... This response seems typical of a child.

You must be what they call a grade-schooler.

I would like to converse with your father or mother, or guardian.

[Toda Hitomaro]

.............

I am not

How old are you then, huh? That you don't know what an earthworm is??

[Yang]

I did not say that I did not know what earthworms are.

I asked you what you knew.

But that is irrelevant. I wish to speak to an adult, please.

[Toda Hitomaro]

Then why were you asking what you already know?

I. Am. An. Adult.

[Yang]

I believe this is what is referred to as a conversation starter.

But I do not expect a child to understand this concept.

*totally not convinced*

Do your parents know that you are using their phone to speak to strangers?

[Toda Hitomaro]

Interesting conversation starter...

*pouts*

/sigh

How would I prove I'm not a child

How do I know you aren't a child?

[Yang]

That information seems irrelevant where you are concerned, as you did not initiate this conversation.

Also you seem desperate to continue it, therefore I assume that whether or not I am a child does not matter to you.

[Toda Hitomaro]

... Fine.

*long pause*

Do I sound desperate?

I guess whatever. Why did you text a random number anyway? Trying to make friends?

[Yang]

No, friendship is currently unnecessary to me. I am acquiring knowledge.

[Toda Hitomaro]

So why don't you ask about what you don't know, if you want knowledge?

[Yang]

Why would I do that with a child?

[Toda Hitomaro]

Because I'm not a child

And you started this conversation

[Yang]

All the knowledge I wish to acquire, I can do so through books. I find that they are a much more reliable source than humans.

But a child would not appreciate this. Perhaps you are more interested in what they call... picture books.
