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?

Well good for you.

Still don't see what'd be so special about growing up....

[bestwishes]

I suppose growing up could be considered an adventure of its own?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

It's a dumb adventure....

[bestwishes]

Well life is what you make of it? If you have an attitude like that, of course it won't be any fun!

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Having a realistic attitude tends to help more then having an unrealistic one.

[bestwishes]

And you call looking on the bright side "unrealistic"?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

No, I call looking on the bright side "a good way to get killed".

[bestwishes]

I really wouldn't agree with that, but I don't think anything I have to say is gonna help you here...

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I don't need help.

[bestwishes]

If you say so...

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I don't. When I say I do or don't need something, it's the truth.

[bestwishes]

But everyone needs help sometimes?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Only if they're weak.

[bestwishes]

Regardless of how strong you are in one area though, there's always weaknesses? Like with Pokémon. A ground type Pokémon is useless against a Pokémon who can fly. But flying Pokémon are vulnerable to electricity. But electric Pokémon have no effect against Pokémon of the ground type.

You need to have others to balance out your weaknesses.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Or you could just balance yourself.

[No. He doesn't realize how bad that sounds when applied to himself.]

[bestwishes]

That just sounds like a good way to end up completely unbalanced to me?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Well maybe you're just not good at it then.

....Maybe other people need other people and fine, that's great for them. I don't.

[bestwishes]

You know, I'd be willing to help out if you just admitted you need help sometimes?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I don't need help! I DON'T NEED HELP! I don't I don't I-

[And now he's going into a coughing fit after working himself into a little bitch fit. It sounds pretty loud, wet, and painful.]

...I don't need help.

[bestwishes]

You sure about that?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

......Why do you even care?

[bestwishes]

Well, why shouldn't I?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

You don't actually know me, for one.

[bestwishes]

I once heard an ancient piece of wisdom... "When every life meets another life, something will be born."

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Too bad what might be born is a monster.
