[Muttering under his breath and looking rather frustrated as he paces quickly with both eyes closed. Suddenly, something seems off and he opens one, pausing to look around and making a 'hmph' sound]

VI. This is hardly the time for your tricks.

I'm a scientist.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Well that doesn't mean anything about your intelligence. I've known loads of rather silly scientists.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

And I'm not one of them.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

How do I know that?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

The question should be 'how do you know otherwise?', shouldn't it?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Good point! So, how do I know otherwise?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Considering the length of time we've been acquainted, it's only obvious that you wouldn't be able to draw conclusions about my intelligence.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh, you never know. I could be very good at drawing conclusions.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

I have yet to be convinced of that.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Your loss. Still! This place is right up your alley, then, isn't it? A bunch of experiments going on.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

So I've heard. Performing an experiment on an experiment. Hm. How ironic.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

That's a bit meta.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

Oh?

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Oh, well, you know. An experiment within an experiment and there's probably something under that or beyond it.

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

An intruiging concept.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

What do you intend to experiment on?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

I see very few things that I can't experiment on.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Exciting possibilities?

[frigidfourth.livejournal.com]

You could say that. I have yet to put most of my theories to the test.
