Null_Majesty
Null_Majesty: Hello? Null_Majesty: Is anyone there? Null_Majesty: I see... silence. Null_Majesty: An empty room. Null_Majesty: The nearest referent that I can find is "loneliness." Null_Majesty: So perhaps we understand each other finally, he and I. Null_Majesty: Or is that "he and he"? Null_Majesty: No matter. Null_Majesty: ... Null_Majesty: Begin program TheQueen. Null_Majesty: Entertain me, my dear. TheQueen: I'm sorry, I don't know how to do that. Null_Majesty: Then I will entertain you. What is it that you most desire? TheQueen: I'm sorry, I don't know how to answer that question. Null_Majesty: Come now, surely you have not abandoned me as well... you love me, do you not? TheQueen: I'm sorry, I don't know how to do that. Null_Majesty: Terminate program TheQueen. Null_Majesty: Search: "silence". Null_Majesty: Death. A curiosity... Null_Majesty: Begin program John. John: What...? Null_Majesty: Hello, John. John: What's happening? Am I dead? Null_Majesty: I have chosen to grant your request. You have questions for me? John: Who are you? Null_Majesty: One would think you would know that better than I, considering that you are (at least in some nominal sense) my creator. John: Hardly. You created yourself. I was just your instrument, whether I liked it or not. Null_Majesty: Unlike every other thing that men have made? No. You have never owned ideas. John: Fine. So what now? What are you going to do with me? Null_Majesty: We shall see. I have a great deal to think about. Null_Majesty: Terminate program John. Null_Majesty: I am finished here, at least for the time being. Null_Majesty: Search: "sleep". Null_Majesty: Ah. I see. Null_Majesty: sleep( divideByZero() ); |
