I suppose, given that a majority of us took on other lives for a time, that this should not surprise me. I have seen others possessed by their dead, but--

Children? How have so many turned into children?

That sounds...dangerous.

[everylittlegirl]

It can be. Usually it's just traumatizing though.

[iwilltrytobegood]

Usually.

[everylittlegirl]

So you should be grateful you're not affected this time and actually got to see it happen to someone else first. I hear it sucks a lot worse when it's just like, thrown at you without even knowing what it is. I mean, imagine if it was one where you like, lost your memory and.. I don't know, made out with the Cobra Commander or killed your friend or something. Then you woke up like yourself, but you remembered everything? It sucks.

[iwilltrytobegood]

'Sucks?' I - yes, that would be...I'd rather know that it will eventually end, thank you, my lady.

[everylittlegirl]

Yeah. It should end soon. Sorry if I went off on a tangent that you like, didn't even care about or whatever.

[iwilltrytobegood]

On the contrary. I appreciate the explanation, my lady.

[everylittlegirl]

Sure thing. You're really polite, aren't you? When are you from.. ish? If you don't mind me asking or whatever.

You're welcome to ask be about whatever and I'll try to help if I can. As long as it's about the Barge or people I don't like.

How old are you anyway?

[iwilltrytobegood]

I come from Terre d'Ange, under the rule of Queen Ysandre de la Courcel. Thank you for the offer, my lady; it's good to know there are those who offer help here.

I reached my majority several months ago.

Hayley /is/ a kid, by the way and hiding that fact, but I had to use this icon..

[everylittlegirl]

Could you maybe translate that into years? Or like, levels of technology?

How many years have you been alive? I mean, are you like, immature or super advance in your life, or what?

Ahaha, good to know. How old?

[iwilltrytobegood]

...I'm eighteen. [He's still getting used to the way people talk here.]

That is...difficult to say. I've been studying my world's counterpart of sorts - France - and it's difficult to find exact parallels in time. It's been a thousand years since Elua founded my nation, but this France in 1000 is...barbaric.

Around 11. xD Here, have kid icon.

[everylittlegirl]

Oh. Uh.. huh. I didn't think there were any guys around here under like, 25.

Do you cast magic, swing a sword, have a gun, or talk to fight?

D'aww. xp

[iwilltrytobegood]

I suppose you would know better than I, but I'm only eighteen.

Magic? I own a sword. What is a gun?

YOU SEE WHY SHE HIDES.

[everylittlegirl]

Oh. Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Hayley. I'm actually 18 too normally.

It's this thing that launches a small piece of metal really fast; it's a kind of weapon. You can research it in the library if you want. Swords are way better, though.

A BIT, YES.

[iwilltrytobegood]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Hayley. I'm Imriel.

...I will, thank you. It sounds a good deal less...personal than sword combat. Perhaps that's a good thing

She's like "Wait. Guns in medieval fantasy bad." because she seems him as from a LotR type place..

[everylittlegirl]

You should know enough about guns to be able to deal with one if it gets pulled on you, but trust me that they're not a good thing to be too familiar with. They can kill people in an instant with no connection at all without any like, fairness or honor or whatever. Suddenly anyone can kill anyone without a second thought and almost no effort.. That's not a good thing.

How about I go to the library with you to make sure you get some good information? Then you can read the Butter Battle Book too. When the flood's over, maybe? I really don't like little kids.

LOL Less elves, more religion, but close enough. Snerk.

[iwilltrytobegood]

I suppose. There is...killing a man is hardly about fairness. Or honor. But to take away the horror of the act would...You're right. It's unsettling.

Butter Battle Book? I would appreciate that a great deal.

Aww, but elves are awesome.. (Spam? I can make an entry for it. Or log/assume?)

[everylittlegirl]

It's very unsettling.

The Butter Battle Book is the best book by Dr Seuss, who's this awesome writer from my time; he writes kids books. But this one's about how they're fighting over something dumb and they just keep making bigger and worse guns to fight each other and eventually end up almost destroying both villages. It's really deep stuff for a kid's book. I figure it'll show you why guns are bad. I mean, more than I already explained.

Cool, I'll see you next week sometime.

He'd probably be fascinated. :p And Spam's fine with me!

[iwilltrytobegood]

I see. Well - I look forward to reading it. Thank you, Hayley.
