I doubt it, as well.

[Pausing to put up a private filter.]

How are you doing, Golbez? You've been rather quiet for a while....

[Ever since that experiment, or just about so. Which does make her wonder.]

I'm... well, the experiment was an irritant, as I found myself compelled to stay away from everyone during it, and since then I've been... thinking.

[Brooding, more like.]

Thinking about that horoscope...or something else? What did you get, anyway?

"You will be alone forever". [He rolls his eyes.]

It was moronic, but oddly, it reminded me... of my parents.

[He doesn't even bother answering that question.]

Three years? It's so hard to imagine...

There are others who have been here longer, but even so, I understand what you mean.

...Three years of life experiences you might suddenly lose because of the Malnosso's whims. It's not as damaging as it would be to a child, but still...

Much less than I lost to Zemus. [Which is one of the things bothering him right now.]

. . .

I'm a tad past sixty.

[ He doesn't sound a day over twenty two. ]

Truly? Your appearance suggests otherwise.

... Not that I doubt you, of course. It would be an absurd thing to lie about. I am just wondering why that is. If, of course, you don't mind answering.

'Tis quite fine. The simple answer is that my father's bloodline plays more of a role in my age than my human mother's.

It isn't a unique affair on my part, mind you. Ever since the founding of Laplace, intermingling of species became much more common.

You are as I then, though my knowledge of the lifetimes of my father's people is... lacking.

In fact, there is much about them I don't know. But such is natural when one has a parent from another world. Is that also the case with you?

There's a good few of us I believe. [ A pause. ] I'm thirty-three.

[ Thirty-four in a few days and boy does he feel old now. ]

Counting myself, that makes four I'm aware of.

[There's dry amusement in his tone.]

If we multiply that number a few times, perhaps we will approach the population of teenagers.

[ Helios laughs. ] Yes there are quite a few children here, unfortunately.

[ Certainly not the best environment to grow up in. ] Although I am curious as to the immortals here. They usually blend in quite effortlessly with humans, so one can never.

Quite unfortunate. I have to wonder if the same situation is true outside of the barrier. [It would sure explain a lot.]

Perhaps later on one can inquire as to those with that particular gift. I'll admit to a bit of curiosity as to how many there are.

I...would not count myself immortal, but in human years I would be considered in my thirties.

Human years? You are not human then?

[voice] 4000excuses December 14 2011, 05:27:14 UTC
Not strictly speaking, although humans are a large part of what I am.

[voice] cladinthedark December 14 2011, 14:04:24 UTC
I do not believe I fully understand. Are you saying you are part human?
