[Is this the weirdest waste of applied logic ever?

Yes. Yes, absolutely.]

And then what? You'll start to better the lives of others?

[wouldhave]

Are you asking if I'll be a better person in exchange for a blowjob?

[logomachist]

Not in exchange. As part of your own new bettered world.

[wouldhave]

I might be inspired to poetry about marble and alabaster, to metaphors of swords and heat and other suggestive images that put knowing smiles on people's faces.

Or I might be led to celebrate my betterment with a bottle of wine. Who knows?

[logomachist]

You should.

You should know what you're going to do in the morning.

[wouldhave]

I'll wake! Take a drink or two, piss, take a shower or not, dress, then make my way out into the world.

Yes, the lives of us mere mortals aren't all that interesting. That's why we turn to sex for comfort and fulfilment.

[logomachist]

You know that isn't what I meant. Can you not take at least this much seriously?

[wouldhave]

[omg why are you ruining this with actually serious matters]


If you're hoping that a night with your dick will inspire some spark of belief in the cause, I'm afraid I'm incapable of such a thing.

Two nights, maybe

[logomachist]

[Listen: it's a threesome with Patria or it's nothing.]

A belief in bettering yourself would be a half-decent start.

[wouldhave]

[rude]

Alas! I am a man held up by drinking and gambling and being a hopeless good-for-nothing. Take that away from me and there's nothing less.

[logomachist]

Then why bother with this at all, let alone invest two nights on the effort?

[wouldhave]

It's really very simple.

[He wants to give you a bj, Apollo. He's said so. And just because you made this serious and less fun, he's going to be petulant and not remind you that's he's already said so.]

[logomachist]

It's missing an important step.

[wouldhave]

Enlighten me, O Athenian font of knowledge and wisdom

[logomachist]

The premise is that this will make the world a better place, and that there's effective practice in approaching that goal on an individual basis.

The proposition is pizza and oral sex.

What's missing is how the world is made better by this proposal's enactment. All I can see is fleeting contentment for you and no lasting positive impact.

[wouldhave]

Don't forget the possible contentment for you in case you decide you like orgasms. :)

[logomachist]

And that betters the world?

[wouldhave]

It betters you. And you better the world.

[logomachist]

So could you.

[wouldhave]

The world is shit, people in it are shit... why would I bother?

[logomachist]

The world is fixable. It just takes people deciding to care enough to make parts of it new again.

You know that.

You SHOULD know that.

[wouldhave]

[He knows that you believe in it enough to live your life for it. Don't make him work for that distant intangible dream, just let him work for you.]

I know that you care enough.

[logomachist]

[If he still knew how to tell the two things apart, they wouldn't be here.]

What, for the whole world??

[wouldhave]

You would if you could.

[logomachist]

Or you could help.
