[lostwoutmyblogr]

I need volunteers for an experiment.

[Smiling reasonably at the camera. This won't hurt one little bit.]

...Oh yes? What would they do?

[Voice]

[lostwoutmyblogr]

Simply provide me with a few honest answers.

[Voice]

[ahandsomedevil]

Honest answers?

Well...I suppose I can make an exception to my norm, in the name of science.

[Voice][private: unhackable]

[lostwoutmyblogr]

Turn to video.

[voice]

[kyasdaughter]

That sounds ominous.

[voice]

[lostwoutmyblogr]

It isn't, I assure you.

[voice]

[kyasdaughter]

Well, if you still need someone, I guess I could help.

An experiment?

[Keeping her bubble out of view cause it's embarrassing now]

[Video:Private]

[lostwoutmyblogr]

I need you to show me your bubble.

[Video:Private]

[thelittledoll]

Er... yea sure...

[She'll hesitate first though, before moving back and it's a field of sunshine and flowers and happy hills but the edges are creeping a pink colour and that just might be the hint of red on the flowers...]

What are you thinking about?

[reflectivedawn]

What kind of experiment?

[lostwoutmyblogr]

On the nature of this event.

[reflectivedawn]

What would we have to do?

[lostwoutmyblogr]

Engage the video feed. Show me the bubble over your head, then answer a few questions honestly.

[law_of_reason]

What is it?

[lostwoutmyblogr]

I want to see if there are patterns in emotion and the event- bubbles.

[law_of_reason]

That's not very interesting. Symbolic nonsense, at best.

[lostwoutmyblogr]

That's likely to be true.
