[Souji's sitting on his couch with several books stacked beside him and origami cranes lining the window sill behind him. He's not looking directly at the camera when the feed comes on, but the way he sits back a little as it starts indicates that he turned it on intentionally.

He's quiet for a few seconds, as though he's listening to something. Then he looks at the device, pensive.]

How much should someone worry about the future? Or is the present more important?

[He isn't addressing anyone in particular, but he sounds like he needs a second (actually a seventh) opinion on this.]

or you could ju2t explaiing the general term.
iif ii can't fiigure out your 2tatement afterward2 then WOW ii wiill be dii2appoiinted iin my2elf.
come at me bro.

sarcasm is when you say something but you dont really mean it.
its not quite the same as lying though because most of the time people know when youre being sarcastic.
So youre not really trying to deceive anyone.

do you think so?
so then when you troll you dont mean it.

no iit doe2n't work liike that.

and 2omethiing about that 2ound2 liike ii am denyiing my own exii2tance ii have miixed feeliing2 about that.
maybe iif ii were trolliing you that would be the ca2e at hand.

maybe thats the difference though. And thats why you dont know what sarcasm is.
Because when you troll you mean it but you dont really mean it when youre sarcastic. you mean the oppposite.

all trolliing a2iide
why would you do that then?
iit'2 pretty backward2 you've got two admiit that.
how do you have conver2atiion2 iif no one ii2 2ayiing what they are tryiing to mean?

not everyone does it. or they dont do it to everyone.
its the same as trolling I think.
Like Nepeta doesnt seem to troll much?
unless talking in the third person and describing her actions is considered trolling.
Maybe it is to some people

maybe iif we put iit liike thii2.
trolliing ii2 what u2 troll2 do naturally becau2e of what we are.
maybe that2 what ii need two explaiin??

lookiing over thiing2 ii mean REALLY lookiing them over ii thiink ii have fiigured iit out.
2o let'2 put iit thii2 way.
ii'm not botheriing two read over thii2 log but at 2ome poiint ii know ii told you two fuck off.
what do you thiink that meant?

I think i took it as you telling me to shut up or as you not liking what I said.
i figured if you actually didnt want to talk to me, youd go do something else.

ii'm doiing two other thiing2 riight now two but that ii2 not the poiint.
we 2ay thiing2 a2 we mean them.
2o that make2 them mean but iit'2 ju2t kiind of normal??
even iif 2omeone told you that they'll fuckiing cull you on the 2pot you ju2t don't 2tand down and take iit.
2o maybe that'2 how conver2atiion2 work two?
ii don't know ii have no iidea.
ii'm goiing two 2hut the fuck up now before ii keep makiing an iidiiot of my2elf.

i think I get it.
youre just kind of naturally mean sometimes and its normal.
And I guess Im supposed to respond the same way?

iif you want two ii gue22 you could.
