Questions (Phone)

[ceasetoexist]

[At first, there's just silence over the phone, like someone knocked it over and forgot to put the receiver back up. Finally, after a few moments of this and of fake starts, Pokey finally speaks.]

So, with all the stupid age crap going on, I got a question for you people.

If you could stay one age, forever, would you? Or would you choose to keep aging?

Because, I mean, why wouldn't you want to stay the same age, right? I mean, it's pretty much immortality, and you wouldn't really miss out on anything by not getting older or anything. Really, you'd be doing better then them, right? So yeah.

Sorry, stupid question. Because it's not like anyone WOULDN'T take immortality when given the option. Because everyone would choose immortality.

Right?

....What if he could become immortal, too?

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

Do you think he'd want that?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Well, I mean....sure.

Why wouldn't he want to be with me? We'd always been together.

[Until I fucked up something awful. But that's another story.]

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

He might not want to live forever, though!

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I-

But-

.....Maybe.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

See? Immortality doesn't sound as cool now, does it~?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Shut up. You don't have to brag about it.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

I wasn't bragging! [She's just pleased that she was able to get through to him, kind of.]

But, you see? There's always a downside. Like getting a stomachache after getting lots of ice cream! Sometimes it's worth it, sometimes it's... not.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

....Still think that immortality is worth it.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

You don't think you'd regret it?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I don't do regret.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

Lucky you~

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I know.

I'm pretty awesome.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

[That makes her laugh.]

--Hey, how old are you, anyway?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Twelve going on four hundred.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

Pretty young to be thinking about stuff like living forever!

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I'm old enough to think about whatever I want.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

Sure you are! But at twelve years old, you normally have a loooot of time left...

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know I got a lot of time left.

Never hurts to think about the future.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

I hope you don't come to regret that immortality stuff, then, kiddo~

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

[Too late.]

I won't.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

I'll hold you to that!

Oh, oh, I'm Miakis, by the way~ What's your name?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Pokey.

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

Nice to meet you! ♥

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Same here, I guess....
