witch's questioning {video}

[aevitas]

[PUBLIC;

[Have a witch opening a box of pizza on a bench in Espoir,
eyes narrowing hesitantly, pulling back as if the pizza is about to bite her. ]

Here I thought the tomatoes were going to run away again. Glad that's over.
[she quietly chews some more, taking in the changing season, before she absentmindedly begins to speak]

Have you been here before

[dealwithademon]

So, you have also been here before, and forgotten that time? It's strange... but at least I'm not the only one.

[aevitas]

So I implied. Precisely why I asked. It must have been too boring to recall.

[dealwithademon]

Boring? Somehow I doubt that. If I could not recall it upon the instant of returning home, it stands to reason that they were blocked, or lost completely. Of course, the same is true of dreams -- some we remember forever, and others slip away as soon as we wake. If Somarium is truly a "dream world", I'd guess it has something to do with it.

[aevitas]

Perhaps not to you, you're still a child.
You'd be surprised at what you forget in 'forever'.

[dealwithademon]

"Forever", you say? Just how long is forever?

[aevitas]

Longer and longer still. Much like an open road.

[dealwithademon]

Are you speaking in metaphor, or are you really someone like "that"? [Hard to tell what he means... But he's obviously not unfamiliar with those who are long-lived.]

[aevitas]

That's like asking if I am as I appear. You've no way of knowing, but you're welcome to think whatever you like.

Asking a woman her age is rude after all.

[dealwithademon]

If you want to split hairs, I never specifically asked how old you are, but do as you will. It's no concern of mine anyway.

[aevitas]

That's hardly any fun. Although you seem to be unsurprised by such things. Are you familiar with these sort of beings?

[dealwithademon]

Familiar? [a strange sort of amusement in his voice] Yes. You might say that. It wouldn't be the first time. [and now he sounds smug] So you admit it? You are something like that?

[aevitas]

In other words involved.
[she replies breezily]
I'm a human being.

[dealwithademon]

[Avoiding that first statement] And only that?

[aevitas]

I thought you weren't concerned?

[dealwithademon]

I'm not. I'm curious. And you're dodging the question. [He seems to be having fun with this. All this free time, he's bored.]

[aevitas]

And you're avoiding my statement.
