[ The dream tonight is a rather empty one, compared to the brilliant things that people could find themselves in. A simple beach surrounded by mountains, clear blue skies and a deep blue lake, and a small picnic area set to the side. The moon can be seen, despite it being day, rippling in the water. By the waterfront is an old station wagon, and of

[As he's a normal human, Jack has probably been dead for over 100 years from your point of view.]

[He looks around curiously. This doesn't really look like his kind of beach and he's wondering why he's there. Then he notices you. The only way you could seem as old as you do without looking old is if you're an immortal. He must be here to meet you--but he has no memory of who you might be. He certainly doesn't remember arranging a meeting with you.]

Ah, hello? Have we met?

[thatoldthatkind]

Yes! Exactly.

[bot_builder]

If you'll lie about how you feel about it, its importance must be pretty personal. [He looks thoughtful.]

[thatoldthatkind]

It's going to be the last place I ever see.

[bot_builder]

[He blinks.] Oh. Wow. Yeah, I guess that's personal, all right. Do you know the how, or just the where? Is it avoidable?

[thatoldthatkind]

Here... most likely with guns. I hate guns.

[bot_builder]

Hm. Guns are tricky. Hard to defend against. Have you given any thought on how to avoid it?

[thatoldthatkind]

There's not much point in avoiding it.

[bot_builder]

No, I guess not. Except for not dying. That doesn't seem like a point?

[thatoldthatkind]

Everything ends at some point.

[bot_builder]

...

Are you really that tired of living?

[thatoldthatkind]

It's not a matter of being tired of living.

[bot_builder]

[Have a confused and disturbed look.] ...You're weird.

[thatoldthatkind]

[ A laugh. ] I am!

[bot_builder]

[He shakes his head. He has no idea what to make out of you.] I guess I'll see you around. Or not. Depending on when that dying thing happens.

[thatoldthatkind]

You'll see me plenty of more times.
