So, what would your opinion be on, say, respecting people's privacy, as a general rule? Versus what you might have said two months ago?

And to compare it with something less severe, what about traffic jams?

[fairfeste]

i mean i guess same as you i used to mind and now i don't?

traffic jams are the worst tho (ᗒᗣᗕ)՞

[iamnotgod]

[WELL. That's... being noted for later, certainly.]

We can agree on that much, then. ;)

[And Walter doesn't even have a car. Being a cyclist can be the worst if you have no exits available.]

Anything that feels less petty than it used to, though?

[fairfeste]

uuuh

idk

nothing i can think of

[iamnotgod]

[Hmm...]

What about things you wouldn't tolerate happening to people you know? Versus people you don't know?

[One of the more worrying aspects of the change in basic thought, on Walter's part, was that there was no such differentiation - curiosity overcame alignment, and without a sense of finite space or privacy... at least there was no thinking of it as a weapon to target on people he didn't like?]

[fairfeste]

[it takes a while for feste to respond, since they're just... frowning and trying to figure out what this means. is there a difference? They think so, but how to...]

i guess mostly i don't want people i like to get hurt and want to look after them? is that what you mean?

[iamnotgod]

I think so.

[Because Walter can definitely relate to that - speaking for himself, not necessarily what he's gotten from Webmind.]

But what would you be willing to do, if they got hurt?

[Keeping it to just an if...]

[fairfeste]

p much anything i think

[iamnotgod]

[Relatable, but at the same time...]

Nothing has happened to them, outside of Number-related activities, right?

[Walter may not be in a position to be the first to know, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't want to help.]

[fairfeste]

nope they're fine

p sure

unless they haven't told me something

[iamnotgod]

Probably best not to feed into paranoia when we don't have to, on top of life becoming hectic here within the Boundary.

[For further explanation, reread the above sentence, Feste.]

Apart from that, though, is there anything else you'd like me to know? Or help with?

[fairfeste]

don't think so

u need anything?

[iamnotgod]

[Walter makes himself actually think about this question - two milliseconds, minimum.]

Not at the moment, no.

But you can message for anything you like, too. Anytime.

[fairfeste]

you too! ⊂(￣▽￣)⊃
