[this is now so much funnier in the face of saturday.]

no wonder you're one of prides! i guess you're right, it's really not, buuut i'm not like the others who have all sorts of accomplishments they've already made. i'm still working on it

[niceguyferatu]

I'd love to hear about it all the same.

[probe]

well...i'm kind of famous! my brand's still growing, but i'm getting pretty big now

[niceguyferatu]

Oh? How impressive! And what do you do? How did you gain that fame?

[probe]

a little of everything! sing, dance, q&as, and sometimes i play games on stream?
the internet's a very powerful thing, mr. masters

[niceguyferatu]

On...stream?

[ HE'S FROM 2006, HAVE MERCY ON HIM ]

[probe]

yeah. you know, the internet?

[niceguyferatu]

Yes, I'm well aware of it. I'm not so familiar with the concept of "streaming." Something you can do on the internet, I take it?

[probe]

oh yeah! you can set up a camera and record whatever you want to broadcast live to a ton of viewers. it's pretty easy!

[niceguyferatu]

Ah, like what happened with you and Envy the other day? And you've made an entire career out of it? Impressive.

How are you handling that when you can't broadcast beyond this place? Or so I assume, at least.

[probe]

exactly! and thanks!
but i've just been making them for me and recording them to save on my computer. maybe i'll release them at another time

[niceguyferatu]

Will your audience not be concerned by your sudden absence?

[probe]

oh, it wouldn't be the first time i took a break from my social media. it'll be fine! besides, i don't mind entertaining all of you instead

[niceguyferatu]

Well, I would say you've been doing a swell job of it thus far. I can only hope your career continues to grow despite your current absence.

[ wow, look at him trying to butter Lust up even though he's gonna burn all his bridges come trial! ]

[probe]

[and because lust isn't rude, vlad will hear a voice behind him.]

We'll see! I have a ways to go but I've got all of you to worry about first.

[niceguyferatu]

[ oh wow! what a pleasant surprise!! he genuinely did not think lust was going to make an in person appearance at this point. ]

Ah! Yes, I'd imagine you have quite a lot to worry about now that murder has become a very real possibility.

[probe]

Even besides that, we're pretty much here to babysit you guys anyway.

[they mean this in the nicest way possible, given the cheer in their tone.]

[niceguyferatu]

So the murder hasn't affected your opinion of us or your job here? Not at all?

[probe]

No, some of us had really low opinions of some of you to start with. [again, so casually, and not exactly meanly.] Just because we weren't around doesn't mean we couldn't see everything when you first arrived.

[niceguyferatu]

Really now? Any favorites or most disliked that you'd like to share, then?

[probe]

Hmmm...an Avatar's allowed to have some secrets, right? But I bet we have different favorites anyway.

[niceguyferatu]

Well, I certainly haven't been keeping track of any "favorites" myself, although I would be lying if I said I appreciated everyone's company equally.

What about amongst yourselves as avatars, though? Which avatar's company would you say you enjoy most?

[probe]

Hmm...[they tilt their head in thought.] Envy, Wrath and Pride are my favorites. So I kind of have to give you a chance, I guess.

[niceguyferatu]

[ he chuckles. lisa also chuckles, in w1 trial ]

Much appreciated.

If you had to pick just one, though, who would it be?

[probe]

Oh come on, Mr. Masters! You can't expect me to only pick one! That's like...that's like asking me to pick my favorite ice cream topping. They're way better together than just by themselves.
