[circumsutus]

Of course they don't.

[voice]

[kuritsun]

What did you do?

[voice]

[circumsutus]

I took them apart, and then I put them back together again.

[voice]

[kuritsun]

-- You what? [ MISUSE OF SCIENCE RIGHT THERE ] That's animal abuse!

[voice]

[circumsutus]

They didn't complain.

[voice]

[kuritsun]

Of course not! They're mice! What's wrong with you?

[voice]

[circumsutus]

.... You remind me of an old classmate. She'd always complain when I tried to dissect people.

[voice]

[kuritsun]

[ WHAT ]

P-- people? You're insane! [ because she doesn't think he means cadavers. ]

[voice]

[circumsutus]

I can't tell you how many times I've heard that before.

[voice]

[kuritsun]

How can you just post these things?! Surely the authorities will notice, and... [ weeeh ]

[voice]

[circumsutus]

The authorities don't usually notice until after I've moved on to humans.

[voice]

[kuritsun]

H-how can you just talk about this so calmly?!

[ sort of wishing she'd used anonymous text for this one now. ]

[voice]

[circumsutus]

[Yeah, lots of people seem to feel that way when talking to him.]

Years of experience.
