(@Lisa;Albert;Heliodor) Hastur: Uh... Will be, thank you. And... yes. ~he blushes a bit~ Some coffee. And food. A lot. Meat preferably.
(@Asagi) Hastur: Those were not ghosts, but literally souls ripped from the body. Ghosts are more of a mental than spiritual residue, they're also called "haunts". That, or my world iteration is a bit more messed up than yours. ~looks startled by a sudden thought~

Heliodor: (finds a package of peanuts and gives it to Hastur)
The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.(@Asagi) Hastur: The wording of the question implies that your life has been even more interesting than I thought.
(@Albert;Heliodor) Hastur: Thank you two. I guess coffee and these nuts will be enough for me to get off the chair, then I'll just go snatch myself a Mooffalo or two... Likely from the same farmer who shot me so he knows what is it to shotgun a Great Old One...

Heliodor: So what exactly is a Great Old One?

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.(@Heliodor) Hastur: Well... We're entities so advanced compared to humankind and most other folks that sometimes we get revered as gods. Others may call us Precursors, Forgotten Ones, Old Gods, that stuff. ~munch munch~ ...Great peanuts, by the way, thanks. The thing is, most Great Old Ones don't care about other races since they deem them boring and insignificant. I've got kinda downgraded and now I'm here with you. ~spreads hands~
(@Albert) Hastur: I think I feel some sand on my teeth. I guess it's par for the course, though.

(@Albert) Hastur: I've started watching you after I've understood that you're a funny one with lots of weirdness coming your way. Prior to that you weren't really different from everyone before you. Though I admit that I've watched the Earth just since it was boring in Carcosa since the very days of Ihtyll.

Helidor: Oh? You guys don't poof. It's when our physical bodies get too damaged. We go back into our Gems, visualize a new body then come back out again.
