Sometimes they do.

[desertpowered]

I'm a bit of a pessimist. Experience taught me that.

[Paul nods, not disagreeing, and Selina may see the faintest of smiles. He's bitter as an older man who's seen how good intentions go sour, but maybe that's why he needs to hear optimism occasionally.]

But you're not wrong. I don't believe optimism is bad...just that it shouldn't be blind. We both probably agree there.

[fiendishfeline]

We do. It's hard to be an optimist in Gotham, but I've never been one to go along with the grain.

You've mentioned that there are beings who can find ways around death. Some of those beings are corrupted into something worse than what they were, a different kind of death. The Hive Gods, who feed off the deaths of others to make themselves stronger. The Fanatic's Scorn. Every time they come back, their minds get more distorted, and they aren't really Eliksni anymore.

[Paul is mindful that he's no Guardian and has no Ghost, so he has to be far more careful on the rare instances he fights. He's taken one Eliksni dreg, but that's all, and even that one kill was close. Paul would only stand a chance against a Hive Thrall and they never hunt alone. When he is an adult it might be another matter, but his abilities need to grow and that means living long enough for them to.]

The Guardians can come back from the dead, too, but they lose their memories of who they were beforehand. Good and bad. I wonder if that feels strange - knowing you were somebody else once, but another person now. Maybe the process of coming back does something to people.

silco | arcane

[sanks]

i. “No. I didn’t ask for you.”

ii. “You’re overcomplicating a very simple thing.”

iii. ( you’re late, the door is open. )

iv. “You would think that of me.”

v. ( the gargantuan fish looms, he admires. )

[desertpowered]

Maybe that's why I'm not bothered by the idea of settling there for a little while, enough to get a sense of the environment.

I've lived in cities before, just not Earth cities.

[fiendishfeline]

It's an interesting one to choose, that's for sure. It welcomes pessimism. It's also got the whole superhero and supervillain thing going on, so there's that entertainment.

roman godfrey ( hemlock grove )

[ouroboral]

a; Torched the haystack. Found the needle.
b; LSD memoir now listed under Fiction.
c; Only voice: echo. Only friend: shadow.
d; They smoked their last cigarette. Again.

[desertpowered]

I've been both a hero and a villain, depending on who you ask and when. It's a finer line than many people think.

[Paul tries to stay a neutral party, if only because his interference may make things worse. It's better if Earth sorts out its own problems - though he might not be above helping in smaller ways. ]

You mentioned that I'm not the only alien. Not biologically alien, in my case, but I figure that's enough.

[fiendishfeline]

[she has to laugh at that] Oh, I'm well aware of that line.

Aliens are more Metropolis' thing, but yes, our Earth has a few.

[desertpowered]

I've dealt with - and been - far worse in my time than a thief.

It's probably best I stay quiet, then. I don't want to cause a stir.

[fiendishfeline]

Now, now. I'm an exquisite thief.

Unless you're going to come in and try to give the Joker a run for his money, I doubt you'll be noticed all that much. Just be careful with your money. The mob is pretty big here.
