[23] - New pair of glasses

[guardianofsea]

I had found the pair of glasses that misplaced two weeks ago, only to accidentally sit on them on the couch. The frames had broken in half and far beyond repair. Fortunately, I had plans in the city to acquire some new books that had been published so I stopped by another store to purchase a new pair. I am always exasperated at how humans want

Ah, it's been a while Lugia!

Yeah, I would imagine it's difficult to maintain eyeglasses... I could probably use them sometimes but I've been fine without any for so long so there is no need.

I really do love the summers here, it gets so pleasantly warm and everything is astir. It's much more blistering on Hocotate... our atmosphere is rather attenuated, you can see the stars out in daylight! I don't understand how I manage to survive on this planet. I used to get so nauseous from just the air!

Greetings Olimar! It really has been a while since we had a pleasant talk!

[guardianofsea]

I can see very well even without a pair, but I have been accustomed to them for so long that I tend to lose a part of my mind when I do not have them on... It is quite embarrassing.

Ah... I am quite interested to see the night skies in your home planet, although I am not quite so sure whether I will be able to survive the heat. The temperature rarely changes in the depths of sea; even when I have been living to close a century, I easily get exhausted every time the season changes on land.

[leadthemalong]

Being able to live in the ocean sounds so peaceful... I can only imagine...

The night skies in Hocotate would be beautiful IF ALL THE LIGHTS IN OUR LITTLE COMPACT CITIES WOULD SHUT OFF. ...It's always so busy and crowded that any good traits that our planet has are quickly sucked away for either convenience or money. Hrrgh...

I always loved to get a nice view of all the stars and planets around us when I would go out into space. We actually have two moons and I never realized how uncommon that was on civilized planets until I did more travel in the galaxies. I think... maybe that's why despite the meager salary, unappreciation and dead end why it took me almost fifteen years to finally quit.

[guardianofsea]

Ah, artificial lightning does take away a lot of the beauty from the night skies. I do like the view of the stars whenever I am away from the civilization, even with the moonlight.

Two moons, you say? That is quite unusual to hear. The night sky must be rather bright with two of them shining!

HEY HEY HEY LUGIA, LASERS ARE AWESOME

[things_go_boom]

You could...look into corrective surgery?

OH GOD LASERS IN MY EYES AAAAA

[guardianofsea]

I can see very well without them, dear Lash, though I tend to lose a bit of my common sense without them on. It is quite a nuisance when heat starts to fog the lenses though.

Perhaps I should try getting accustomed to not having my glasses on?

[things_go_boom]

So, they're fake glasses?

Re: OH GOD LASERS IN MY EYES AAAAA

[guardianofsea]

Embarrassingly, yes. I was curious of how they would look on me one day, and I had grown very fond of them ever since then.

[burnoutthesky]

It would be nice, if you could stick around for the for July just once.

[guardianofsea]

Hm, it would be very nice, yes. Let us see if the haircut I am planning to get will enable me to cool off better.

*he's totally just been sitting around, doodling Lugia with different hairstyles*

[burnoutthesky]

As you pointed out yourself, you have lost much of the puppy fat from years past. Even if a hair cut does little to help you cool off, short styles favor a less round face. That is better then no benefit at all.

Re: *he's totally just been sitting around, doodling Lugia with different hairstyles*

[guardianofsea]

Having shorter hair does not do any good in enabling me to cool off better? Then it would be quite a waste of time to get my hair cut short then.

I have had short hair during my late teens. Perhaps that is why it must look familiar?
