ein himmelfahrendes und eins, das fällt

[apaintingdarkly]

I'm sure you're all excited about this return to normalcy, if that's what it is, but I still have one question for our new lord and master.

Worlds like this one don't revive on their own, not from the inside. The power has to come from somewhere - usually someone. Someone human, in the real world.

So: Who rejuvenated this one?

Or beings who would just as soon have not been created at all.

What is life for them? To know that they were made on a whim?

[apaintingdarkly]

Life is what they make of it. They have minds of their own, what they do with them is their choice.

[150th]

I know. I was made with similar motives, if not in the same manner.

[apaintingdarkly]

[ So was Dark, but he doesn't feel the need to mention it. ]

Then you should know as well as anyone.

[150th]

It is cruel to create life with no thought for purpose.

[apaintingdarkly]

Life is cruel. What's your point?

[150th]

Perhaps he should have been stopped.

[apaintingdarkly]

'Should have' isn't worth crap. You have to work with what you've got or shut up and sit down.

[150th]

I have.

[apaintingdarkly]

Then I ask again: What's your point?

[150th]

If you do not yet understand, I feel no need to continue explaining. Most humans do not.

[apaintingdarkly]

If I were human I might be offended.

[150th]

What are you?

[apaintingdarkly]

[ He doesn't even try to explain. ]

A monster.

[150th]

Is this what your species is named, or simply a broad term?

[Pokémon are, in theory "pocket monsters." The idea of containment and possession it implies has always rankled.]

[apaintingdarkly]

I don't have a species.

[150th]

Then a monster is what you call yourself, or what you assume you would be considered by others?

[apaintingdarkly]

Both.

[150th]

May I ask why?

SEE WHAT DID I TELL YOU, BLACK HOLE

[apaintingdarkly]

I'm a parasite, disguised as a human. Most people would call that a monster.

w8 when

[150th]

A parasite of what?

Omg did I hallucinate that memory

[apaintingdarkly]

Humans.

idk D:

[150th]

[...Neat.]

Do you consume them?

Well my mail apps eat tags .-.

[apaintingdarkly]

Something like that.

This is the first time I've had my own body all to myself.

i feel your pain

[150th]

You use them to take on a physical form?

[Super neat.]
