Strange. Also unusual. Not harmful though, so far as I can see. But why pink? Couldn't it have been blue instead?

That's a unique effect! How did that happen?

[dieinnafire]

I'm not quite sure, actually.

[notamartian]

... well, enjoy it while it lasts, I suppose!

God, that'd irritate me after a while, though.

[dieinnafire]

Yes, well. I find myself not having much of a choice.

[notamartian]

Too bad.

... hey, we've met before! Only you were... shaped differently. I remember.

[dieinnafire]

--Ah, yes. My apologies for my rudeness then.

[notamartian]

Oh, it's fine! No need. I think I would have been grouchy too, under that sort of situation. Impossible things happening to you must be a bit shocking.

[dieinnafire]

Regardless, my temper was inexcusable. Impossible things are rather...ah, possible, here.

[notamartian]

So I keep being told! Besides, I found the by-product of your temper very interesting. Have you always been able to manipulate fire like that?

[dieinnafire]

For quite a few years, yes. It's an innate ability.

[notamartian]

It's amazing. Is it hereditary?

[dieinnafire]

No. It is rare, even among Methuselah.

[notamartian]

... Methuselah. Interesting term.

[dieinnafire]

To a Terran, perhaps.

[notamartian]

Terran - and the stem word is 'earth', so you mean... human.

Nope, I'm not human!

[dieinnafire]

No? Not Methuselah either, though.
