Probably. Are you one of them?
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
I doubt anyone wants to use it against me and those who do happen to be privy to a number of my secrets.
Someone could use against you, though.
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
True, but in the grand scheme of things, I'm just a little cog in the greater machine. All I've got to hide is my identity.
[ not true, but close enough. ]
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
But without the little cogs a machine can't even run. Or, since I like to think of your little giveaways as a business, the smallest miscalculation, like, oh, I do suppose revealing your identity could spell certain doom for an enterprise.

Maybe, maybe not. Up to you. But if you'd really like to own what I've got to offer, you'd best offer me something in return.
Exactly. Which is why you'll never know my face, my voice, or my name.
[ well, technically. the name he's given is his, but it's not what he goes by when he's not hiding behind an anonymous feature. funny how that works out. ]
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
In comparison to what the others are offering, I regrettably can't compare. And the things that would are a bit too valuable to me.
True, but I know how you speak. Did you know that people tend to mimic their normal speech over these things even when using text. It's a curious fact you learn when you take a peek at conversations that aren't yours.
[ she called herself lauren bacall to loki once, she can't even judge. ]
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
Do you? Could be putting this whole thing on.
[ he's not. ]
You couldn't pick me out of a crowd if you tried.
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
But this would make this a disguise, and do you know the big problem with a disguise. However hard you try, it’s always a self-portrait. What does that say about you, I wonder.
[ well this feels half like deja vu. at least you're not dressed up like a vicar, hatter. ]
Are you willing to bet on that? I do appreciate the underestimation of me, but are you willing to stake your anonymity on the assumption that you're right about that?
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
Oh, I don't know. Maybe that I'm smart enough to keep my head down. When you start throwing blame around, people's heads roll. I'd rather not get caught in the crossfire, thanks very much.
I've gone this long without getting caught, and I'm not planning on it now.
Maybe if you had a bit more to go on.
[ that's right, irene: a guessing game. twenty questions? ]
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
I wouldn't dream of throwing blame around. Even if you were as quiet as a church mouse and kept your head down, I do think I could find you. In fact, keeping your head down might make you more noticeable to me.
Being caught by me isn't a bad thing. I'm very good at keeping my secrets.
And how do I know the bits you're giving me aren't false?
[ oh, must you appeal to her sense of mystery and guessing games. ]
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
Isn't a bad thing?
[ srsly. ]
Actually, I think you need to reexamine your definitions of 'good' and 'bad' before you speak to me about getting caught. [ he knows a thing or two about that. ] I also think you underestimate me, but that's fine. Common mistake to make.
You don't. But it's all in the name of fun.
If you're as good as you say you are, you'll find me even if I lie.
[ oh, he must. ]
( T E X T | encrypted 100% )
[ srsly. ]
Male? You're playing the 'you underestimate me' card like only a man can, women are much more subtle about it.
[ then let her play a little game with you, hatter. let her play. ]
