[Pel is restless, and possibly a little bored. Sometimes, you have to walk away from work for a few minutes and do something else. But Pel doesn't like to shut off her brain. So she speaks into the stone, voice mild and thoughtful.]

Anyone up for an exchange of riddles?

I am weightless, but you can see me. Put me in a bucket, and I'll make it lighter. What am I?

[mythalenaste]

You can see me, so no.

[sandsofhell]

Then...are you a hole?

[mythalenaste]

Yes. Good guess. Now you tell one.

[sandsofhell]

Alright....

[He thinks for a moment. A riddle, a good riddle. Hm....]

What...hm...what has a head and a tail, but no body?

[mythalenaste]

[A long pause. Of course her first thought is of animals, but that's impossible. Right? Well, maybe it's subjective.]

A...slug?

[sandsofhell]

Afraid not, a slug has a body.

[Oh snap, did he stump her???]

[mythalenaste]

We have philosophical differences about what constitutes a body.

[He has totally stumped her.]

[sandsofhell]

We're not talking about what a body is philosophically. I mean an actual body.

[What is this and why is this starting to become fun.]

...The answer's a coin.

[mythalenaste]

...Oh.

[That works. Maybe.]

How do coins have tails?
