[ --clicks on to the screech of something inhuman howling its lungs out, and the muffled sounds of someone whose communicator has turned on inside a pocket in the middle of a fight. More screeching, the ring of metal, and several crashing noises until the monster's yowling is cut abruptly short with a horrible wet sound. ]

[ Silence. ]

[ And then, much clearer and so completely calm, some actual speech. ]

Nuadoria. I had not thought to see thee again.

Thou art changed.

[ FISHES. ]

I would think them a problem for the human population here. Their numbers are not insignificant.

[netherstead.livejournal.com]

Not if you know how to avoid them.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

A polite phrasing for cowering in the shadows.

[netherstead.livejournal.com]

Monsters aren't my specialty, sorry.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

Thou needs not apologize to me. It is wise to recognize one's own limitations.

[nethrstead.livejournal.com]

We all have them, right?

[temerate.livejournal.com]

Your kind does, yes.

[nethrstead.livejournal.com]

No, I meant that we all do. Everyone. In general.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

If that is what you believe.

[netherrstead.livejournal.com]

It's just fact, you know? Every living thing has some sort of vulnerability.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

Is this a particular interest of yours?

[netherstead.livejournal.com]

Nope. It's just fact.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

'Fact' is not immutable. Few of thy beliefs about the world are.

They are simply uninformed.

[netherrstead.livejournal.com]

Fair enough.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

I have not convinced thee at all, have I.

[nethrstead.livejournal.com]

Nope.

[temerate.livejournal.com]

As thou will, then.
