USER: #DC143C - QUESTION FOR EVERYONE

[lonered]

[ USER: #DC143C ]

Hey. So...

...

Question for anyone. Or for everyone I guess.

How sure are you that you're still alive? Back where you're from I mean.

Like on a scale from 1 to 10. Where 1 is "I definitely died" and 10 is "I'm definitely still alive" and everything in between.

Thanks in advance. I know it's a weird question. I just... I gotta know.



[He's asked some folks, but the results so far are mixed. And Keith needs to figure out one way or another if this is just some weird unexpected afterlife, and he's at a solid 2.5 on his own scale so he's wondering.]

I have to wonder whether that's bullshit.

Shit, I can't believe I didn't think of that. It looks like there's a messaging option on here, but I have no idea whether that's encrypted. It could be viewed by Them too. Future discussions about it should probably happen in person.

[lonered]

You don't get that talking about being dead, thinking that you might be dead, could be upsetting?

Even if it happens to everyone, it's the end of a life. People are afraid of dying.

[lonered]

Sure. The well at noon.

And then away from the well, because yeah. It's creepy there.

10.

I was at remedial lessons with four pro heroes. I would remember if anything that extreme happened.

[lonered]

Yeah. Seems like everyone is from different realities in one way or another. The Earth I know isn't the Earth a lot of other people seem to know at all.

If you're from Japan, you're from some Earth or another. My Earth doesn't have demons --
as far as I know. I mean I guess some people believe in those sorts of things.

i'm real sorry about this guy

[murdery]

why?

[lonered]

Good. So you're pretty solidly alive. That's good to hear. I think most people fall into that camp, which is a relief.

[Keith is leaning towards this not being an actual afterlife. Which is a relief, but also means that he's more pissed at whoever dragged them all here.]

[parodeity]

ok see you tomorrow then dude

good luck w your poll

[lonered]

Could be. Not sure what the point of lying about it would be. And I've seen enough weird stuff to not assume, lately.

In person is better. Who knows where they have ears in this place, but at least in person isn't right on the network they provided us with.

[lonered]

Pro heroes?

Sorry. 10 is good. Definite is good.

[lonered]

Because it's an end. And it's unknown. And a lot of ways of dying hurt.

What the quiznak kind of question is that anyway?

[lonered]

For what it's worth, you're the outlier. Seems most people are pretty sure they're alive.

But yeah. See you tomorrow.

[satanslash]

demons kinda became public info recently some people knew about exorcists and demons before that [It was really jarring, that moment when people around him on the street he'd been walking down suddenly began getting demon wounds and could see them. And the announcement from Mephisto being broadcast on television... God, things had gone from bad to worse to fucking terrible so fast. Think of something else. Better to be distracted than go crazy trying to figure out what to do about Yukio and everything happening back home.] sooooo what is your earth like?

[parodeity]

sweet i love being in the dead outlier group
jk but yeah
late

[lonered]

Uh. Sure, okay. I won't mention it.

[He'll even stow his other questions about it.]

There was a battle. I was in my ship and on a collision course with a much larger battle cruiser. Maybe a minute from impact.

[glaciers]

Like All Might and Present Mic.

Do you not have pro heroes where you're from?

Are you worried you've died?

[lonered]

Yeah definitely not my Earth then. Unless it happened after I left it. Guess it's been a while since I've been back.

[But really they have enough to worry about with hostile aliens never mind with demons.]

Well. To me it's normal. No demons or anything.
Our space travel gets us to the edge of our solar systems.

Oh and we're not being invaded by hostile aliens yet, but we're really close if the war doesn't keep turning for the better.

[lonered]

Yeah. Kinda sucks, honestly.

But. Right. Later.

[lonered]

Yeah I don't know what those mean.

Are you from the Earth where people have "quirks" or something?

And nope. No pro heroes. None of that.

...worried isn't really the word. I might have died. I probably should have.

[satanslash]

[Yeah no, don't add demons to your problems, Keith. It's not fun. Satan is, frankly, a dick. And his demon king sons aren't much better.] whoa what space travel? like space space? more than just some dudes going to the moon forever ago? [It was the 60's, Rin...]

[glaciers]

Yes. Who talked to you about it?

Do you feel dead? Or ghostly?

[lonered]

Humans have managed to get to the edge of the solar system, to Kerberos. Pluto's moon.

A lot of alien civilizations' technology makes that look like nothing.

[lonered]

Some kid named Izuku?

Not really. Mostly just pissed off at being here.

[satanslash]

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat [Rin.exe has stopped working.]
