Long Overdue Explanations

"I don't actually have a mutant power. I'm not a mutant, per se."

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:23 pm

"Are you an alien? A wizard or something?"

by **Aisha Khan** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:24 pm

"Did someone curse you?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:26 pm

"No, I'm Greek," he said, as if that explained everything.

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:28 pm

"Greeks live for thousands of years?" Regan says, "Is that a side effect from the wine or all the pederasty?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:41 pm

"The wine, primarily, and pissing off of specific deities. I leave which ones as an exercise for the readers."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:43 pm

"Most people would do a lot to receive that kind of punishment." Nailah adds from the door where she must have stepped in at some point to observe.

"So, basically when everyone else is dead," Regan says, "You and me will be the only ones left."

"Are you as excited for the apocalypse as I am?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:45 pm

"I've heard that one before, Miss Rourke.

Then again, I've heard most of them before."

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:47 pm

"So...you've seen all of this stuff. Lived through it? The stuff you talk about in class?"

....why the hell couldn't he make it more interesting if he was there...

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:54 pm

"Oh, not all of it. A man can only be in so many places at once.

It's been difficult going back to things without...giving things away, as it were."

by **Kay Haddock** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 11:59 pm

"Maybe it'd be less, uhm, boring if you did, sir. I sure wanna hear what it was actually like."

"Teach us how to make Greek Fire," Regan says, "That would be awesome."

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:12 am

"Well, I suppose that's sort of the point, and I'm addressing that to Kay and most certainly not Regan. I've sort of been bluffing my way through this, because as you may have guessed, in the past, going "why, hello there, I can't die" puts you in a rather...awkward position.

So I'm going to be needing to have you all sign slips indicating you will not burn me at the stake."

"Will you tell us more about where you were and what you saw?" Aisha asked.

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:22 am

"Yes, I think...yes, I think taht's what I am...you know, in a roundabout way, you know....what I'm trying, urm, to say..."

by **Kay Haddock** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:26 am

"I don#t think anyone's gonna tell on you." Kay says, though she does shoot a glance at Regan.

by **Haley Crusek** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:27 am

"Just tell us the good stuff. This class could actually be cool for once."

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:27 am

"If I have one virtue, it's my discretion."

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:49 am

"Right. Erm...what are...what are kinds, um. What are kids interested in, these days?

...Pogs?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:50 am

"What the heck are pogs?"

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 12:52 am

"Oh, man. Pogs are amazing. You don't even know."

by **Aisha Khan** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 1:13 am

'What year did you die?" Aisha asked, sounding curious "Was it a long time ago?"

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 1:35 am

"A few months ago."

by **Calvin Strong** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 7:04 am

"So how many of the things in the history books actually, y'know, had you in them?" Cal cut in, going over his logs of the stuff he'd seen in the storage room and frantically trying to place it to find out who this guy was.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 7:06 am

"...wait, are you, like, actually Roland?"

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 10:41 am

"As in that legendary sword guy?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 3:05 pm

"I, erm, yes. I was...that was the name I used there. I've been a couple other, erm, people...Sir Kay, for instance. I've probably met more men in the history books then been them, however..."

by **Steve Jones** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 4:55 pm

"Like who?" Steve asked with genuine interest.

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 7:12 pm

"Oh, you know, the usual lot. Alexander. Ceasar... you know, just the usual."

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 7:13 pm

"Was he the guy who invented the Waldorf salad?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 7:15 pm

"I don't even know what that is."

by **Calvin Strong** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 8:36 pm

"Just ignore her, she's trying to be funny and failing. So what was your first name?"

by **Aisha Khan** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 10:01 pm

"Did you know Muhammad?!?" Aisha burst out, then went invisible in embarrassment.

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 10:15 pm

"What about Santa Claus? Did you ever meet him?"

by **Alex Carpenter** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 10:46 pm

"Seriously, do you ever know when to shut up?"

by **Haley Crusek** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 10:48 pm

"You know the answer to that already,"

by **Regan Rourke** » Sat Mar 30, 2013 10:51 pm

"It's a valid historical question," Regan says, mock defensively, "There were a bunch of people who supposedly inspired the whole Santa Claus legend."

by **Roland Sackville** » Mon Apr 01, 2013 2:38 pm

"My first name? Erm...I went by Bion for a long time when I was a child in Thebes," he said, shiftily.

"Haven't used that name in a long time, though."

"And Regan, if I tell you 'yes', would you believe me?"

"Erm, Muhammad? I'm...I'm afraid not....I haven't always....that is to say, it hasn't always been....the best of times..."

by **Aisha Khan** » Mon Apr 01, 2013 2:44 pm

"Oh, yeah." Aisha said, sounding a bit disappointed.
