I am interested in understanding the meaning of this symbol.

O Death, where is thy sting? O Hades, where is thy victory?

A time long, long ago. That is all.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

...Didn't think so.

[like an afterthought] Still. Maybe I'm being too hasty. How many were chosen by the key?

[purgatio]

If your mentality is remaining the same, I would wager seven.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

Sorry, my mentality shifted.

Thanks anyway for the effort. You could rival someone I know.

[purgatio]

Your game is interesting, though I can't find the reason why you're playing. I suppose you wouldn't explain it until someone wins, correct?

Hmm?~ You know of someone like me? I'm intrigued.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

Correct. Even then, it's questionable. I'm not one to reveal so easily.

In a sense. You would pick her brain better than most, at least.

[purgatio]

Mm, make it another game then. Something to work towards, hm?~

...I assure you, I'm probably more than the other could handle.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

Perhaps. I do need something to pass the time.

Oh?

[purgatio]

Feel free to play anytime. I have a willingness for interesting games.

Just a deduction.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

I'll keep that in mind.

Interesting deduction when you have so little to go on.

[purgatio]

Perhaps I'm flawed. Or the opposite.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

I'm inclined to say different.

[purgatio]

The opposite of opposites? An interesting outlook that is.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

You're the first to call it "interesting". Most would say I'm weird.

[purgatio]

"Most" aren't myself. I'm a few things that "most" would say as well, weird being the least.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

Huh. I seem to have chosen the right conversation to continue.

You must have a name.

[purgatio]

Albedo. Was your choice part of the game as well?

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

Greta. It was a whim.

Are your parents alchemists or Jungian fans?

[purgatio]

Do you have a Hansel?

I don't have parents. The ones who created me might have been trying to be ironic, based on a pattern.

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

[hesitation marks] I used to.

Pattern? You must have siblings, then.

[purgatio]

A witch set to devour?

Over six hundred in technicalities. Only two actual ones. Those two follow the pattern. Which you should be able to guess, no?

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

In a sense.

Must have been a rowdy household. And let me guess, you're the middle child.

[purgatio]

Am I that transparent? I'm disappointed.~

[finalwitch.livejournal.com]

Names give too much away, as we've both demonstrated.

[purgatio]

Ah, so you did know the reference. I can't tell you how interesting that is.
