I hope you all plan to start laughing and crying soon. Apparently that's what's expected of us and I don't know about the rest of you but I hate it here already. So get to it. Maybe they'll send us back sooner.

Or maybe they won't. Has anyone seen a bench I could wait all this out on? By a window maybe. I would prefer cushions if it's going to be over 7 years, but stone will do.

Well I haven't died yet so it's possible.

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

I doubt that is the only criteria.

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

What else do I need then?

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

The assured lack of mortality.

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

Well I'll be sure to let you know if I ever die and that should settle it.

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

I suppose an answer would be too simple.

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

I don't have an answer.

So what are you if not of the "race of Men".

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

The last of the Numeroneans.

What are you?

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

Have you ever heard the word "demon"?

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

No. Should I?

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

It doesn't matter it's an inaccurate description anyway.

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

What is an accurate one?

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

"The Witness"

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

What of?

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

Well that's a little personal don't you think.

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

It is a simple enough question.

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

What sets you apart from Men?

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

Greater strength and speed, a longer life, and perhaps a lessened tendency to fall prey to Men's foibles, but I find that false.

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

How much longer a life?

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

You have seen me, haven't you?

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

Yes and?

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

I am aged seven and eighty.

[ Explanation enough :| ]

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

So when do you die?

[therangerking.livejournal.com]

When I choose to.

[bearswitness.livejournal.com]

What a luxury you must consider yourself quite fortunate.
