[network] @Iwillnot; adVENTure [open] Day 186

[ Audio/Video ]

[ First comes a video of darkness. There's the sound of metal clicking against metal multiplied by a hundred, and the slightest red glow. Then dozens of red lights turn to look at the camera - robot eyes. They swarm, and the video ends.

The broadcast turns to audio. ]

The ventilation system in the school is quite deep. I did not see what was at the bottom, but there was a great deal of moving metal.

[ He thinks about this. Hard. But. ]

I do not believe you are using the word "film" as I am familiar with it.
jumpthegun: (confused | srsly...?)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-26 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
... like the movies?
absentconstellation: (stalking prey)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-26 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
Ah.

[ He gets it now! ]

I do not know what that is.
jumpthegun: (confused | question)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-26 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
You don't... what year are you from?
jumpthegun: (confused | srsly...?)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-27 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
What does 'H. E.' stand for?
jumpthegun: (confused | from a book)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-27 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Right. Uh... does that mean humans have only been around for 400 years where you're from?
absentconstellation: (handsome kitten)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-27 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
In their current form, roughly 4,500 years. The human era began when human mages conspired to banish lesser immortals from the mortal realms.
jumpthegun: (confused | distracted)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-28 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
... What?

[You're going to need to explain a little more there, Mr. Cat.]
absentconstellation: (handsome kitten)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-28 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
What part confuses you?
jumpthegun: (confused | that's not right)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-29 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
The human mages banishing lesser immortals part. How does that even work? What constitutes a lesser immortal? And how are they human if they're immortal?
absentconstellation: (handsome kitten)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-29 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Lesser immortals will not die of natural causes, but they can be killed.

Humans and immortals are not the same.
jumpthegun: (srs | investigating)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-30 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. So... you're a lesser immortal?
absentconstellation: (serious cat business)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-30 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I most certainly am not. This mortal body may die, but I cannot.
jumpthegun: (srs | phone call)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-31 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It's about the spirit, rather than the body, then? Are all immortals like you cats?
absentconstellation: (actually sleeping)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-31 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
No. Only cat-shaped constellations are cats.
jumpthegun: (srs | investigating)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-31 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
So... is every constellation an immortal? Or only certain ones?
jumpthegun: (confused | headscratcher)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-31 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... really amazing. Do all of them have a physical form like you do?
absentconstellation: (actually sleeping)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-31 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
If they so choose. Most do not choose.
jumpthegun: (srs | investigating)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-31 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Why did you choose to come down among the mortals, then? Was there, like, a girl that you fell in love with. [Okay, so this is exceptionally stupid and influenced heavily by film tropes. But never you mind, Cat.]
absentconstellation: (shleepy cat)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2016-12-31 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ That is so colossally stupid that it deserves a moment of silence.

Moment of silence over. ]

Mortals are more interesting than immortals. You are capable of so much change.

And drama.
jumpthegun: (srs | uncertain)

[personal profile] jumpthegun 2016-12-31 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[That is the silent judgement of a cat and John just sweats it out, feeling awkward.]

And immortals aren't? Guess you're not much like the Greek gods supposedly were.
absentconstellation: (squint)

[personal profile] absentconstellation 2017-01-01 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Immortals have their scuffles and wars, but they have no sense of urgency. Even the lesser immortals will live for many centuries before they are killed by another.
