do the mingle shuffle!
Who: you! me! everyone! it's like a really big party!
Broadcast: if you want!
Action: see above!
When: right now!!!
[ So the weekly shuffle has happened. We got new captains, people who have mysteriously disappeared-- I mean, who have never existed, and new people aboard the ships. That's exciting! Wow! ]
[ New people, get acquainted with your ships? Press all the buttons? Introduce yourself like a polite individual? Old people, keep aging? Welcome them with open arms and confetti? Punch the person who just opened the door while you were in the shower??? ]
[ Who knows! It's a mingle post! Don't ask me!]
[ (But seriously, how bout those people who never existed, huh.) ]

Living forever is a truly unique thing, but I don't see how that invalidates how kind you've been towards me, or how much I've enjoyed talking with you.

Some believe that the gods underground have moments when they forget to control their magic. Sometimes, when a child is born, they have so much magic in them that they're almost like a god. They don't need to draw on a god's power to use magic, and they age slower, and eventually stop. And then, like the god realizes its mistake, they begin aging again, but only when another child like that is born.
Of course, if there aren't any more children being born, then it's impossible for the god to give its power to another. When my village was destroyed and everyone in it was killed, the only one that was left was me, since I couldn't die. And since there were no more children, I never got any older.
I know it sounds hard to believe, but it's true.

...it wasn't so hard to get by once I started to hide my face and stay away from others.

Then... I'm glad that you can be in a place where no one would find your face frightening.

It is nice...though strange.

Indeed. This place is very strange in many ways, but I find it nice as well.

Although, I do not think it is weakness, or lack of vigilance, if we allow ourselves to enjoy the company of others who are here, or find joy in fleeting peace while it lasts. [those moments are gone too soon, and irreplaceable]

[ It's funny to say, though, after telling Nunnally all of that. ]
