I spent nearly ten years sealed by the Order and unable to wake up from a semi-lucid coma. I don't know much of the world, but I know what a luxury being able to do things is.

[ioudas]

[For a moment theres a look of shock. He had known that the Order had done some stuff, but as he starts to piece things together, it had to be something .... terrible.]

That's your perspective.

[imaginemeandyuu]

It's my awareness. That you've always been able to move freely doesn't mean that isn't something you can enjoy. Isn't it that we tune out things we're used to so we don't notice them? Close your eyes and just feel the movement of your chest as you breathe, feel the way your muscles feel when you shift your arm. Tune back in. You're dead, not a corpse.

[ioudas]

Like I said, it's part of your perception. You've lived enough for a thousand lives, the fact that I've died and come here is somewhat ... boring.

[imaginemeandyuu]

A thousand lives sounds pretty awful.

So let's find something you like to do and do it! Quick, you have to have some hobbies, right?

[ioudas]

All of my hobbies require a lot of liquor, women or a lab.

[imaginemeandyuu]

All of which are available here.

[ioudas]

Not really.

[imaginemeandyuu]

Yes really?

[ioudas]

No, not really.

[imaginemeandyuu]

A bunch of the gods offer alcohol, there are certainly women, and one of the gods is a science god.

[ioudas]

Doesn't it just seem easy? With the science, I mean.

[imaginemeandyuu]

I wouldn't know. I've avoided it.

[ioudas]

Understandably so.

[imaginemeandyuu]

But if she's the science goddess, she's probably got more than whatever basic thing she thinks is needed here.

[ioudas]

I suppose I can solicit her.

[imaginemeandyuu]

Yeah, exactly!

[missing all subtext to that]

[ioudas]

... yeah, exactly.
