Oh no, it's true. My childhood was...less than ideal. So it was a fantastic distraction.

Your entire life revolves around riddles? That’s a little hard to believe.

[ednigma-machine]

Way to inflate my ego.

I’m only as clever as the one who told the riddle.

[ednigma-machine]

Very good point. But you are correct.

I can’t exactly be sure of myself if I’m just guessing, can I? But yeah. Final answer.

[ednigma-machine]

I don't think I'm in relapse, I don't feel like it. No, my riddles are usually really simple. Nothing too extravagant, you know.

You never know. It all really depends on the type of therapy you’re doing. I mean sometimes just one little thing can be big enough to set a relapse you know. Wonderful. I worried it was going to be some little thing I was over looking instead.

What Believe me, I can do a lot more than a third grade word puzzle! What kind of machine has ears?

Um.. Okay? 

Yeah sure, lets see if you can do any better than a third grade word puzzle.

Jack: Very clever, Edward.

Jack: My guess would be a coffin.

Edward: Right! I need to think of better riddles. People guess mine too quickly. Am I no longer the smartest person in the world?

Jack: Poetry, really.

Jack: Always, my dear Edward. :3

Edward: The man who invented it doesn't want it. The man who bought it doesn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it?

Edward: Think hard.

Telling one riddle couldn't possibly cause a major set back in my therapy, right? That's the way I see it. But you're smart. That's right. 

Personally, you should listen to your therapist. They know what’s best when it comes to helping you. However, I am curious as to what the answer to this is now. It wouldn’t by any chance be dreams would it?

[ednigma-machine]

Aren't you smart. That's correct.

Stars, duh.

[ednigma-machine]

Both answers are right! Look at you Jack, going above and beyond as usual.

It could be two things, well, one more than the other. Stars or Dreams. I’m leaning towards stars though.

[ednigma-machine]

They aren't harmless when your entire life revolves around them, apparently.

I’m more interested in why this therapist of yours seems to be against you telling riddles. They’re harmless, are they not?

[ednigma-machine]

Next time? H-how about we delay next time and just make it now? I have a lot more riddles. Want to hear another? I have more...did I say that already? 

Stars. That was way too simple. But I’m sure you’ll think of something better next time. 

[ednigma-machine]

Correct! For someone who can't make sense of riddles, you did well. 

Dare I say stars? Riddles are fantastic - if I can make sense of them. Which, granted, I usually can’t.

[ednigma-machine]

Come on, Wanda. A magical girl like yourself has to give it a try!

Oh, Edward, I’m not very good at riddles.

[ednigma-machine]

Haven't had the pleasure of meeting him. But you're correct, I'm not referring to Wally. 

Sounds like my nephew Wally. Though I doubt that’s whom you’re referring to, right?

[ednigma-machine]

You sound so unsure of yourself. Is that your final answer?

I’m not great with riddles, but… Dreams?

[ednigma-machine]

Congratulations! You got that one. That one wasn't much of a challenge for you...I have a lot more, if you would want another.

Please. Stars? You couldn’t think up a better riddle than that?
