We're friends, and also I'm your familiar apparently? So you can talk to me about whatever you want.

And what I meant was you never told me what you wanted.

[constellationprize]

... I'm okay. If you want to keep going then that's fine, but I don't really want or need anything...

[notadrop]

You obviously want things. You should want things. People deserve to be happy, dude.

[constellationprize]

I'm not really a person...

[notadrop]

That's not true and if you say it again I'll actually tear out your throat.

[constellationprize]

- Ruby, it...

... What do you think it means to be a person?

[notadrop]

You're like, here, aren't you? You exist and you have thoughts and feelings and you do stuff with your free will or whatever. You're a person.

[constellationprize]

Um... Do I...

[notadrop]

Yes? You've been showing that for like this entire date?

[constellationprize]

[ how does she ]

Um... It's a little complicated...

[notadrop]

Nope. It isn't. Like, not at all? 0% complicated. There is actually a total lack of complication to be found.

[constellationprize]

It's like -

Um, think about a cup, maybe...? When it holds water, it's not really about whether it likes it or doesn't like it, is it...?

[notadrop]

Did you know you aren't a cup?

[constellationprize]

... Ruby, it's a metaphor...

[notadrop]

That somehow proves you're not a person?

[constellationprize]

I'm shaped like this, and I can talk to you like this, but if it's between being an object and being a person, you'd say I'm more like an object, wouldn't you?

[notadrop]

Do you like, know what objects are?

[constellationprize]

Um...

... What do you think an object is?

[notadrop]

The opposite of the thing you are.

[constellationprize]

... Maybe Doodle could explain it better than me...?

[notadrop]

Is he a witch? I thought he was a history rpg ghost.

[constellationprize]

He is, but our circumstances are kind of close. Um...

... I don't really know how to explain it if you don't like the cup metaphor, though...?

[notadrop]

Pretty sure the familiar's supposed to be the cup in your stupid cupaphor.

[constellationprize]

No, I'm the cup.

It's not about what I like or dislike - the way a cup doesn't really like or dislike holding things, because that's what it's made to do... that's what its function is. Like that, loving and assisting people is what I was made to do.

... So you don't have to worry about what I like or dislike, okay?

[notadrop]

Cups also aren't made with likes and dislikes in the first place so you're actually just being fucking dumb.
