Meta looked up from his journal and smiled at the man. "Hello, there."
-
[b]The man simply looked at you [/b] "Hello."
-
"What brings you to this bench other than my handsome self?"
-
"You're not that handsome."
-
"Well, that's rude."
-
"Least it's the truth."
-
"That's where you're wrong, friend." "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
-
"Interesting defense mechanism.)
-
"Excuse me?" Meta looked at him with a raised eyebrow and a smile.
-
"Well logically, you believe it true otherwise you wouldn't have reacted as such."
-
"Of course. It is called self esteem." He smiled, as he leaned back and put his hands behind his head and relaxed. "You don't have to put others down to feel good."
-
"Honesty is putting others down now?"
-
Meta chuckled. "Of course not. There's a fine line between honesty and opinion."
-
"Indeed there is. What is your point?"

"No clue!"
-
"Robin Williams."
-
"Good guy."
-
"Indeed. But you get the quote, don't you?"
-
"Of course"
-
"Good. So, the reason I'm sitting on this bench is because I'm going to start doing my job. So, what do you want to learn?"
-
"I actually want you to learn something."
-
"Call it out if you know. Or should I give you some pointers?"
-
"Now, I'll start by saying this. You don't know who I am. You don't know anything about me. That's perfect"
-
Meta grinned. "You don't know that for sure. I could just be playing along in your little game. Anyway, what do you want to know?"
