[You know those pressing, intense questions that keep you up in the middle of the night? Well, this is one such moment and anyone unfortunate enough to be awake, or awakened, during these early morning hours will be hit with an extremely important q from a confused girl.]

What's a joke?

[And, a few seconds later-]

How do you 'prank' someone? Is that a treasure?

[Unlike most of the rest of these losers Ed was awake anyway because what is even a sleep schedule, so he doesn't sound perturbed at all when he answers.]

Jokes are something funny you tell to people to get them to laugh. Usually they're funny because you don't expect what comes at the end of it--that part's called a punchline.

Pranks are when you set something up to cause trouble or confusion for someone that winds up funny for everyone else. It's usually harmless but some people can get carried away with it.

...you hadn't heard of those before?

[catpiper]

No, I didn't know about things like that, but that kind of thing makes the Traveler happy.

[This combination of words means nothing to Edward, probably. She's taking it seriously though.]

Do you like jokes? Do you laugh at them?

[solperierat]

The Traveler?

Yeah, I like jokes pretty well. Everyone laughs at different things, depending on what they know and how they feel about some topics. [He REFUSES to bring height into this.]

[catpiper]

The Traveler is a god who likes this kind of thing.

[And now she has to know.]

What makes you laugh?

[solperierat]

A god, huh...

[Gross.]

[But...well, if it's for Ren...]

Hmm...knock knock jokes can be pretty good. Do you want to know how to tell those?

[catpiper]

Yes, yes-I want to know!

[Please Ed!!! Give her this arcane secret so she can, you know, call him back to make him regret this.]
