[Fffzzt and someone’s once all-too-quiet voice filters through the communicator. It seems distant as first, as if Eddie has set the communicator down and is pacing around it. If you listen closely enough, perhaps you can pick up on some hummed snippets of “Hush Little Baby”. Then he speaks directly into the comm, his tone clear and smug.]Question: ( Read more... )

The suit isn't technically mine anymore. It hasn't been for a long time. It's Sentient. The only thing between us is the fact that I built it.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 01:20:34 UTC

Someone--perhaps something--has overridden it. How could this have happened?

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 01:25:02 UTC

With a lot of difficulty. The suit has quite a few fail-safes built into it.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 01:26:15 UTC

Has she talked to you? Directly? Does she know you?

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 01:27:39 UTC

I've spoken to her, yes. Through the comms only, however. She seems to know me, but as to her identity, I have no idea.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 01:34:19 UTC

Question: how man aloof, manipulative beings with female voices do you know?

She's toying with me.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 02:10:32 UTC

She's toying with everyone.

I know quite a few, but not too many that could hack my technology.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 02:16:50 UTC

Well then that dramatically decreases the list of suspects. Care to share, or do you want something in return?

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 02:21:22 UTC

Honestly, I don't think I know her. I think she knows me.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 02:23:09 UTC

Which is all the more disturbing.

Regardless, you're a person of interest to her. Do you think you're her king figure?

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 02:24:28 UTC

If I am, I haven't been informed. This would be so much easier if she would just say what she means.

I hate riddles.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 02:33:24 UTC

Wait. Are you trying to make me hate you?

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 02:36:08 UTC

Should I be? I'm a man who solves problems head-on. Riddles are just a way of obscuring the facts, which takes more time to work through.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] enigmaestro June 6 2009, 02:37:03 UTC

You do know who I am, right?

[ Private ; Encrypted ] liverletdie June 6 2009, 02:38:38 UTC

Edward Nygma.
Alias: The Riddler.

Yes, I'm well aware. However, I'm not going to pretend I like riddles just for your sake.

[ Private ; Encrypted ] now you've done it enigmaestro June 6 2009, 02:42:00 UTC

Yeah, you already spoiled the answer there, chief.

I don't have to defend my favored intellectual pursuit as a basis of philosophy requiring creativity, knowledge, and intelligence because I'm sure my tirade would fall upon deaf, socialite ears.

If you underestimate her because she works in riddles, you're already at a disadvantage. Believe me, I know.
