Yes. And then they can't help themselves anyway.

I knew a boy once with eyes like a cat's — green-gold. I don't know if people still say what they used to about eyes like that, but as I remember it, someone with green-gold eyes was thought to be cursed.

[thepuppetmaster]

Cursed?
Cursed with what?

[occultigen]

Bad luck and misfortune, among other things. The sort of person...that one wouldn't want to get close to, for fear that some of the calamity might catch up with them, too.

[thepuppetmaster]

Superstitious bullshit, in other words.
People can always find ways to be afraid of the things that they don't understand.

[occultigen]

Just so. Superstitious bullshit, very much so.

It's a shame, really. There are already so many things to be afraid of as it is, without making up more of them all on your own.

[thepuppetmaster]

I can agree with you on that.

So, how is my second impression going.
I mean, I think it's going well.
I haven't made any egregious faux pas yet, as far as I can tell.

[occultigen]

I think you're doing a very fine job at it so far, really.

Would you like to ask me a question, in exchange for the one you granted me? To be fair, and all.

[thepuppetmaster]

Really.
You only asked me my eye color, it isn't as if you were prying into details of my tragic and lonely childhood.
If I'm going to ask a question of equal intrusiveness I suppose I should ask you what your favorite ice cream flavor is or something.

Sure.
What's your favorite ice cream flavor.

[occultigen]

Oh, well...I had cucumber ice cream once, in the summer, and it was rather refreshing!

But I think if I had to pick just one favorite, it would be cookie dough! It's marvelous, the bites when one gets a bit of frozen cookie along with the vanilla and the rest.

[thepuppetmaster]

Heh.
Good choice.
I always get brain freeze.
