"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?"

Edited by Xeno: 8/12/2016 12:10:23 AM"Sometimes it is more noble to tell a small lie than to deliver a painful truth. Do you know who said that?"
-
"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?"
-
"Who am I?"
-
Meta chuckled. "My job is to inform you about things you don't know. I'm pretty sure you know who you are." Meta snapped his fingers. "Or do you actually not know who you are? Thus proving that I don't know everything? HOLY SHIT I LOVE IT!"
-
"I'm glad you do."
-
"ME TOO!" He cleared his throat. "Seriously though. You wanna talk about Black Holes or Gamma Ray Bursts?"
-
"I want to tell you something about the human race. About these people, in this galaxy, in this universe."
-
"Go ahead."
-
"There's one thing above all you should know. You can't teach them."
-
Meta chuckled. "So, that's what you're here for? You're here to tell me that humanity can't be taught?"
-
"Yup."
-
Meta sighed. "My Omniscience is pretty much limited by people's personal stuff and identity etc. etc. But I know a lot. More than you, if I'm going to be completely honest. I've helped races that are faster, stronger and much more intelligent than the human race. So who are you to tell me they can't be taught when not only do I know more about them than you, but I've also helped much more advanced races?" Meta seemed to stare off into space. "I don't know who you are or why you're out to get me. Hell, I don't if you're out to get me. Like I said, I'm pretty much all knowing about the natural world, not individuals. But, my point is that...so what? So what if they don't accept my guidance at first? Honestly I just realized that it's impossible for you to have been knowing what I was doing. So I guess this interaction isn't cannon. But still, I don't like you. And I don't mean you. I mean [b]you.[/b]" "In layman's terms, you break logic to look cool. I don't. Hell, I look cool because it's my damn job. Humanity, isn't anything special. It's that simple."

"You don't like the writer? He doesn't like you either."
