Just for fun: Random questions!

((So ask a question, or name a topic or issue, and you'll get a response from Enoch! IC, OOC, anon, whatever floats your boat. Real life hot-button issues, random questions about the ancient past, silly mundane questions, TMI questions, meta questions (about the fandom or otherwise), game-specific questions, it's all good!))

I might throw a million people later, but for now here's Michael's kid.

[angelchild]

What do you think about other worlds?

[warriorscribe]

Other worlds? That's a broad topic. I don't know if you mean anything in particular, but I'm fascinated by them in general, all their differences and similarities.

[angelchild]

All right. What about other worlds' Heavens, to start with?

[warriorscribe]

I'm afraid I don't know much about other worlds' Heavens. I've heard of worlds with a terrible, tyrannical God. I can't imagine what those Heavens must be like.

[angelchild]

They're lying.

[This is said too quickly and with too much conviction to come from anything but a small child.]

[warriorscribe]

I thought so too, little one. I thought so too. There was simply too much evidence to ignore. No reason for too many of them to lie.

I know it's distressing. But we can rest assured that our Heavens aren't like that.

[angelchild]

But Father says that demons are liars by nature.

[SMT Michael is not exactly an unbiased opinion. But try telling Nagahisa that.]

[scentofmakai]

Do you believe in a thing called a 'mercy kill', Uncle?

I will not throw EVERY Devil Children muse I have at you

[devilgirl]

Does it ever seem weird to you that you're - however old you are - and you look like you're maybe early twenties?

[warriorscribe]

Many are indeed tricksters and liars. *He won't say it seems to be learned as their children seem as innocent as human children. Last thing he wants is to make this boy vulnerable.* But, little one...I never said the evidence I couldn't ignore came from demons. Most of what I hear is from fellow humans who bear some sort of proof.

[angelchild]

Can you prove anything about a world that you can't show people?

[warriorscribe]

*From the expression on his face, he does but doesn't like it.*

...I have already performed one. When Jason mutilated everyone, I bested a young woman who came after me, but she was severely crippled. I couldn't leave her like that, but healing her would only cause her to become a danger to everyone again.

[scentofmakai]

That fits the definition. It's kind of hard to pin down, though. A mercy kill requires someone's living state to be worse than death, and I've known people who would argue that no such thing exists.

I think they're wrong, though.

I wouldn't even mind if you did. Now with less misfiring.

[warriorscribe]

"Weird". *He seems to find that...funny, in a sort of not-actually-amused way.*

At first, it was disturbing, and part of the greater burden of immortality...then it became a nuisance...and then just another part of my life. There are worse aspects of immortality.

[devilgirl]

You're not at a bad age to get stuck at, though. People take you seriously when you look twenty-something. Not when you're twenty and you look ten. [Grumble, grumble.]

Papa says I'll probably still grow, just slowly, but it's taking forever.

[warriorscribe]

There are proofs that are not physical in nature. The same story from entirely different people who do not know one another, for example. Or...or recognizing something specific in the way they act that can only be explained by their story.

So, yes, it can be proven without showing me the world. Please don't be discouraged. Surely, if you are so certain they are lying it means your world is not among those with this...affliction. Honestly, I've been waiting so long to meet someone from another world with a kind, benevolent God...

I honestly feel bad for him sob

[angelchild]

You shouldn't have to. Even if there are other worlds like that, they have to be the exception!

[warriorscribe]

I think...such states are very specific and very few. But they do exist.

*Clearly those people have never been skinned alive. Twice.*

[scentofmakai]

[Stop getting into trouble, Uncle.]

There's some things I'd want people to kill me if they ever happened, but I don't know if I have the right to decide that for other people.

[warriorscribe]

Some people simply look young for their age. Although I admit I've never seen a case like yours.

*He'd even thought she was ten until she said that. That was...certainly something. He'll just deflect the awkwardness with a little joke.*

But be thankful you'll never likely be two hundred and forced to act as if you are junior to a man of sixty.

[devilgirl]

If I get to two hundred I won't let anybody boss me around, especially not if they're sixty. I don't let people boss me around now.

SMT CR basically exists to mess with his head.

[warriorscribe]

I should hope so. In my experiences between two worlds where those of many worlds converge, you are the first I've met.

at least I didn't tag him with Devil Children Enoch, that would be a whole different experience

[angelchild]

Those must be terrible worlds... I don't want to think about having to live there.

[warriorscribe]

*It's okay, Animus will be over soon. Then he can get into trouble in Hinoto-Ri*

You don't, normally. If they are in no condition to tell you, however...that is when you must use your own judgment.

[scentofmakai]

[yayyyy same game again]

It's a pain.

...So if I have some news for you that wouldn't do anything but upset you, should I tell you?
