[deadthing]

Mostly the first one
if you're interested

[transgressings]

24 hours is quite the duration.
Do you believe you can hold out for that long?

[deadthing]

I don't think they give half-credit for trying

[transgressings]

No points for partial effort? Disappointing.

I suppose it also depends on whether you'd be comfortable staying the night.

[deadthing]

Not fair, I know

I can do that
I don't mind if you don't

[transgressings]

Don't you?
Even once I have to leave you wanting for eight hours?

[deadthing]

Oh

You're going to go to sleep?

[He didn't think about that.]

[transgressings]

Eventually, perhaps inevitably, I do have to fall into torpor. At least until the sun sets.

[deadthing]

Oh right
I guess I can just hang out then
until you get up

[transgressings]

It would certainly guarantee that you used up at least eight of those mandatory 24 hours.

[deadthing]

That's true
I wouldn't even have to do anything

[transgressings]

Apart from exercising restraint, of course.

[deadthing]

Yeah apart from that

[transgressings]

I'm not being entirely facetious. You would be forbidden from taking satisfaction into your own hands.

[deadthing]

If I did that would mess everything up and we'd have to start over

[transgressings]

All the more reason to behave.

[deadthing]

I will!
I don't think I could do this more than once
Not for a whole day

[transgressings]

It's not usually my instinct to indulge in too much denial, either. Not without rewarding.

[deadthing]

That's the part I like
the reward

[transgressings]

I have every faith you'll earn yours, when those 24 hours are up. I'd have no intention of sending you away unsatisfied.

[deadthing]

I didn't think you would, you're not that mean

[transgressings]

No?
But you don't mind it when I'm a bit mean.

[deadthing]

Yeah that's ok, it's the fun kind not the bad kind

[transgressings]

How do you differentiate the two?

[deadthing]

Fun mean is like
pushing me around or teasing or telling me what I can or can't do
but we both know I like it so it's ok
It's like having an inside joke

Bad mean would be doing stuff I actually don't like
calling me names or trying to make me feel bad about myself
or not caring if I like it or not
