Oh. Well, she can't swear she's not any kind of idiot, but she is very much not that kind of idiot.

I kissed a girl when I was forty-seven to see if it appealed at all. It didn't, she offers.

Congratulations on not being an idiot. 

It's not actually very hard. I don't even know what's wrong with most people.

Me neither, though I can't pretend I think about it all the time.

Yeah, they don't deserve my mental energy. I mean. I have to have some allowances for tolerating idiots or I'd have no friends besides my sister at all, but, no, when they're being idiots I have better things to do.

I just pretty much make do without friends except my family and Huan.

I have only one sibling and no magic dog.

You poor thing. I highly recommend the magic dog. Important ingredient.

This one seems very happy where he is. Let me know if you find any others.

Huan might be one of a kind. How's your sister doing here, do you know?

Haven't checked in with her in person yet but she's doing fine.

Good.

She was simultaneously flattered and weirded out by your dad's offer.

Oh?

He just showed up at our door! He said he liked her paper did she actually want to learn things! This is weird!

How're you supposed to do it?

Less, mm, spontaneously than that?

Sounds boring.

It seems to work.

For goals that do not include 'don't be boring'.

Maybe it doesn't bore them.

Then they're boring.

People don't need literally every single thing in their life to not be boring in order for them to not be boring overall.

I mean, yeah, but we live in Valinor, most things in their life will be boring by default.

I see your point.
