I don't know how this place is still throwing me for a loop. I shouldn't be surprised, but here I am, shocked I'm talking to a 2033 year old man.

Unless you're messing with me.

[profanation]

It's actually 2069 by my count now, but anything under a century is pocket change when you're waiting.

You know, there are far older beings here than I.

[burningfree]

That's unbelievable.

I mean, I know it's probably true, but it's still unbelievable. As far as I know, no one in my world has ever lived much past 100. Is it common to live so long in your world?

[profanation]

Absolutely not!
I'm the cockroach that just won't die, I'm very afraid to say.
Everyone else has a nice, natural span - much like your own, with few living past 100.
:') someone had to draw the short straw.

[burningfree]

Incredible.

I'm assuming something has kept you alive all this time?

[Now that Lio thought about it, he wasn't actually truly certain how long someone who was burnish could have lived. He wondered, if they'd remained synced with the Promare, if their regenerative properties might have allowed them to live for longer. It certainly hadn't stopped their aging, but injury and disease would never have been a concern.]

[profanation]

God won't let me die.

[burningfree]

Shit.

I don't really know what to say to that.

Sorry.

[profanation]

Why, thank you for the condolences.
I'm sure it will sort itself out eventually.
:)
Have a pleasant day.

[burningfree]

Uh. Right.

You too.

[Awkward...]
