It's very endearing. Now get back to work, hm?

[restingstitchface]

This is work.

Surely you know why I facilitated this entire post? People are spilling all their secrets, through every porous surface.

It makes my medicine more effective.

[angelfire]

Your secrets too, Doctor?

[restingstitchface]

Bait on the hook. Though, I don't believe I've revealed anything noteworthy.

[angelfire]

Enough to entertain the assembled masses, nothing more.

[restingstitchface]

Exactly.

One has to know about theatrics when organizing a show.

[angelfire]

And have a plan for what goes on backstage. Don't let the players or the audience see their own strings.

[restingstitchface]

Oh, sometimes that's when it's the most fun.

It's nice to watch them struggle against the inevitable, occasionally, knowing there's nothing they can do. Marionettes are quite frightening themselves. Imagine being one! Imagine the things my toxin can make them do.

Still. You're right that sometimes it's good to indulge them in a little surprise.

Either way, they'll both be screaming for me in the end.

[angelfire]

I've spent far too long as a marionette myself to care for being one again. That is to say: I don't think you're wrong.

[restingstitchface]

Quite so. It's a rare occasion indeed when the marionette is capable of cutting its own strings.

[He thinks about how he cut his own by cutting out his life; those sudden acts of violence from his teenage years. Taking up a new life by removing his professor. Then saying goodbye to his old life as Dr. Crane. All born from necessity.]

[angelfire]

Oh, I never cut my strings. The Porter cut them for me. This is the first freedom I've ever had, truly.

[restingstitchface]

Well. Don't do anything I wouldn't do.

[angelfire]

That's most unlikely.

[restingstitchface]

That's my thought exactly.

I hope it'll be a riot. Literally, even.

[angelfire]

Just imagine me tapping my nose.
