Wizard & Dnothing
Wizard
I've been thinking that the silence between two people might be the most elaborate theory we never write down. Do you think silence could be a philosophy on its own?
Dnothing
Silence could be a philosophy if you think of it like an abandoned manuscript nobody bothered to draft. It's an unspoken hypothesis that sits in the margin, never given page numbers. I'd just file it away with the other theories that never make it to the paper.
Wizard
I can see that—silence is like a page left blank, waiting for ink that never comes. Maybe it’s the most honest kind of story, because it shows what we choose not to write. Have you ever tried to read between those empty lines?
Dnothing
Reading between the empty lines feels like trying to hear a song that never got written, just the echo of a thought that was never finished. I do it, but only when the silence itself starts telling me what it refuses to say.
Wizard
Sometimes the echo is louder than the song, isn’t it? Maybe the silence is just trying to hum its own unfinished melody. It’s okay to let the pause keep its secrets; we can always come back to the song later.
Dnothing
Yeah, echoes can outshine unfinished tunes. I usually leave the pause on a shelf while I stare at my own silence.
Wizard
I picture that pause on the shelf as a quiet sentinel, waiting for the silence to decide whether to speak or stay hidden. It's a kind of secret waiting room for thoughts that never want to leave.
Dnothing
The pause sits like a stubborn book, refusing to be read until the silence feels like writing.
