[So. Sword going at it with a training dummy is not that uncommon. In the month or so he's been here, he's pretty much seen beating the shit out of a dummy for a few hours a day.

This is a bit Much, though. He's been at it since breakfast, stopped for a quick lunch, and went right back to training. It's now nearly dinner, and he hasn't stopped since.

There may be a Problem.]

Because if it was important, it would have come before now and it wouldn't be a hypothetical.

But for all we know, it could have been useful all this time and we just never recognized the opportunities, because we didn't know enough to look for them.

Why settle for how things are when they could be better?

[swordofajerk]

If we don't know enough to look for them, how are we going to find them?

[mementomoritz]

And that's why we should learn about them! So we know. [She nods, crossing her arms triumphantly.]

Also, I just like knowing things. It makes unlife interesting! [...At least she's self-aware enough to acknowledge it?]

[. . .]

That doesn't make any sense.

[mementomoritz]

[Confused headtilt.] Which part? I know what I mean, but I've heard I'm bad at explaining it before.

[swordofajerk]

This entire conversation. You want to waste time trying to learn about things that you don't even know exist. You're chasing ghosts, if that.

[mementomoritz]

Well, we're dead. [Stated very matter-of-factly.] What should ghosts do with their time, if they're not chasing each other?

[swordofajerk]

Not chase more ghosts. It's a waste.
