So... just to relieve some boredom:
Has anyone ever had some kind of fictional "creature" turn out to be real for you? Vampires, yetis, ghosts, whatever. Something that was purely fiction for you until some point or another, or that Mulder and Scully would crap themselves over. How accurate are they to the stories, if so?
I'll go first. I know I talked about this already, but... zombies? Used to be a pure movie-and-video-game thing for me. Dawn of the Dead, 28 Days Later sort of shit. Then they turned out to be real. Mine aren't undead, but they DO mutate, which is kind of bullshit.
Zombie bullshit.
[that's zoey's line but ok rochelle]
"Aliens" is cheating, for the record, but only because we're all going through that right now.
And, uh... if you are a vampire, yeti, ghost, or whatever? That's cool too.
[slowly, she's accepting that these are Real Things she has to consider too]
I'll be real, I was just barely used to the zombie thing by the time I got here. But I'm getting used to the other stuff... a little.

Uh. Myths about centaurs.
[Meaning they're still not real, but she could have blurted out literally any other besides "horse".]
... sorry.
no subject
We have myths about zombies in my world, so... We're kind of even?
no subject
[She exhales, forcing herself to relax as she smiles apologetically.]
Trading zombies for centaurs, huh? Err - jinba.
I think I'd rather have jinba. ... not that I want you to have zombies, obviously.
no subject
[No thanks!]
Jinba are much nicer to have, for sure... There's just humans and us, but we have myths about lots of things... demons and ogres and such... and there's people here who are those things.
It was really shocking at first, but... I was taken from my world over a year ago now, so I guess it's... well, I'm not used to it, but. You know.
no subject
[??????????]
So you guys just... have horse bodies, huh?
no subject
[This was always a bit difficult to explain to humans... She knew no matter what that they tended to view her as half human and half horse, but.
She couldn't shake her discomfort at being considered "half" of anything.]
no subject
[Being "half" of something, she means.]
no subject
[What was the opposite of "horse bodies"? Oh no, she confused herself.]
no subject
[HER TOO]
no subject
Ehe, maybe we should just start over...
I'm Konoha.
no subject
I'm Rochelle. Nice to meet you, Konoha.
no subject
Mm, nice to meet you.
You just got here recently... ? I know it can be really confusing all over, not just with the types of people, huh?
