Good evening, everyone. I've a few questions I'd like to hear your answers for, if you'd be so kind as to answer them.

What would you consider to be the "truth" of the world you come from?

Whether it be the truth of the universe or simply honesty from your loved ones, how important is the truth to you? (I've no interest in whether you've deceived others or not, as putting value in truth does not prevent lies from happening at all. It's an interesting hypocrisy that comes with flesh and bone.)

Lastly... how far would you go to find out the truth, knowing the truth may be devastating? Would you sacrifice comfort and the status quo just to know?

[these questions definitely do not have anything to do with the weird eldritch cult he's in, don't worry about it.

anyways enjoy being honest about your answers!!]

Oh, I kind of remember those. Um...metaphors?

So... 'by making it your bitch', do you mean that you're overcoming difficult times?

[privatedomicile]

yeah those

Bingo! You get it, mountain man.

Oh but also if somebody comes up to you and says "yo, that's a bitchin' looking car!" that's a compliment

Lotta evolutions of bitch

[emptyself]

No kidding.

But that's not a bad thing.

So let me try...

You look very bitchin' today.

[privatedomicile]

[Ok then.]

Hell yeah same to ya man

[emptyself]

Thanks.

[ new word learned: bitching! ]

Did you ever manage it though? To make life your... um... bitch?

[privatedomicile]

[Oh god here comes honesty hour.]

Gonna be real I’ve had a hot streak of BEING the bitch lately.

Been working on a comeback but easier said than done

[emptyself]

I see.

But don't be discouraged. Life wouldn't be life if it wasn't super complicated. It's probably like trying to wrangle a bear on an empty stomach. Not impossible, but definitely not easy.

[privatedomicile]

Huh. You're pretty wise, ain't ya?

[It's philosophically sound.]

Hold up you guys wrangle bears in the mountains yo???

[emptyself]

Yeah, I had to be trained to defend myself against bears. Honestly, they're the worst to fight against.

[privatedomicile]

Mountains ain't no joke
how many wild animals do you square up with on a daily basis over there?

Wait what kinda martial arts do they teach you for bear fighting

[emptyself]

To be honest, I don’t know if it has a name.

But since we were young, we were always being taught about how animals moved and how we moved in comparison… things like that.

I didn’t face them daily, but often… bears… foxes… and wild dogs are the worst. I almost died to them, once. I’m really lucky to have lived.

[privatedomicile]

holy crap???
You're like
Seriously hardcore, man

[emptyself]

[ oh? he's heard that one before! ]

Really?

I don't know, I guess to me it's average. But I imagine that for someone from the city, it must seem like the total opposite.

To me, though, you guys are the ones that are amazing.

[privatedomicile]

It ain't bears I'm fightin' in Albequerque. But I did nearly knock Mr. White unconscious tryin to kill a fly
He's uh. Guy I've been working with

[He's the one who's amazing, though? For some reason, that makes Jesse feel kind of dishonest.]

Ain't fully sure about that one. Not even fishin or whatever just keeping it real
