Blargle: Well, if you notice a male italian of around 20 something age, with glasses, and seems to be unamused by everything...mind dropping me a name?
Read my stories!s0r3n: if anyone would explain what exactly happened to me
s0r3n: I would be much obliged.
Mr_Cliche: Guard # 46?
It comes. The corrupter comes. Don't let it touch the tower lest all reality crumble.Blargle: Guard what now?
Read my stories!Mr_Cliche: You shouldn't worry about it.
Mr_Cliche: It was hard to tell who was who when I became Super hero Cliche. You could have been someone else.
It comes. The corrupter comes. Don't let it touch the tower lest all reality crumble.Blargle:...sure. Right.
Read my stories!Res_001: I go by Kokabiel, these days. Plus my myriad titles, the usual stuff mortals hoist on me. I'm trying to get them to call me "Angel of Entropy," but "Lord of Suicides" just has a way of sticking no matter how long you've quit the job.
Res_001: Anyways, s0r3n, this place got weirder. That's all.
Res_001: Rick, I must applaud your ability to prioritize. Too few organics have such a firm grasp on what they want and need.

Blargle: ...oh god I've been here too long. I actually just got offended when you called me mortal.
Read my stories!s0r3n: I am going to try to sort this out.
s0r3n: I was murdered
s0r3n: and now I'm dead.
s0r3n: I have had people I know in life confirm this fact. They've taken my body to the towers already.
s0r3n: so it's not as if I could merely be in a coma.
s0r3n: yet I am stuck in the psychic plane, accessable to all
s0r3n: when I have seen the psychic estates of the dead leveled myself.
s0r3n: it's instantaneous.
s0r3n: ...
Res_001: Are you really an immortal? Too many organics think a few thousand years of existence gives them the right to claim immortality. But they're still organics at the end of the day, just very resilient ones.
Res_001: Entropy gets them in the end. Unless it doesn't. Then they're damned to an eternity in the unchanging void of the heat death.
Res_001: s0r3n, I have to ask. Psychic estates are...?

Blargle: Part of my job involves dealing with moody sons of bitches. As a result, I can't die. Otherwise...well, you'd be a guaranteed about 1 day of work before being torn apart, quite literally, in two.
Blargle: I have the best job ever.

Read my stories!s0r3n: a psychic estate is the area that any thinking creature possesses in the psychic plane.
s0r3n: upon death the creature is no longer capable of thought, and thus the estate is leveled.
s0r3n: the psychic plane is a source of power for wizards, but the process of getting that power is rather arduous, so many don't bother.
Res_001: My creator always gets "Eyes and Teeth." Has a ring to it, I confess. Or "God-Eater" for the superstitious.
Res_001: But I like "Thing in the Woods." Less is more, as they say.
Res_001: And Blargle, there are many who would envy your existence. I know I do.
Res_001: Ah, thank you s0r3n. Do these estates appear as... well, estates perchance? Or is it merely an approximate term?

Blargle: Ahahah.
Blargle: Ahahahah.
Blargle: No.
Blargle: I don't exactly have free reign here, you know.
Read my stories!Res_001: Blargle, have you bothered to consider what the title of "Lord of Suicides" implies?
Res_001: Plus I'm enslaved by an insane gibbering monstrosity of pure pain. Not the best employer.
Blargle:...
Blargle: I suppose that's true. I guess.
Blargle: I'm not really interested in arguing this.

Read my stories!s0r3n: many of them appear as estates.
s0r3n: mine currently is, though it was not before.
s0r3n: being dead gives you a lot of free time to get comfortable.
Res_001: Very well, Blargle. Live and let live.
Res_001: s0r3n, if you're free to mess around in those estates, you may have just found your source of entertainment for the next couple millenia.
Res_001: Depends on how long humanity keeps itself from going extinct.
Ritw: True, I suppose. It's the 'thing' part I object to. It's too generic. Lots of things could be descibed as 'the thing'. If you're going to give something a title, it should be clear what you're talking about. 'Runner' or maybe 'stalker' would be a lot better then 'thing'.
Blargle: Because that's the most appropriate saying for this situation.
Read my stories!Rick Pick: Hey Rit W, I think I may know you.

s0r3n: Ah, yes, that.
s0r3n: I suppose that if the rest of humanity went extinct, and the estates were still leveled at death
s0r3n: it would really destroy the view.
Blargle: Oh god the lines would be forever clogged. Please, no.
Read my stories!
Rick Pick: Actually it's more like 'not dead', 'food', 'food that's been rendered inedible' (bloody embalmers), and 'food that's started moving again and must be stopped from doing so''. Oh, and ghosts.
