I Like Long Walks On The Beach

[iamnotpolaris]

The beach is a nice, convenient, out-of-earshot place to calibrate the coordinates for this universe.

"Considering the fact that he apparently completely reworked the island's biome it wouldn't surprise me if Tialle's Demon could do something about disease, come to think of it."

[not_only]

"Yeah. It's... impressive."

[iamnotpolaris]

"Yeah. Of course, he had ten thousand years to do it in, which...is impressive in its own right."

[not_only]

Nod nod.

[iamnotpolaris]

"That's older than my religion!"

[not_only]

"Older than a lot of things, I bet."

[iamnotpolaris]

"No kidding. I'm going to have a hard time keeping a straight face next time I go to a history museum and hear someone gushing over how these artifacts are five thousand years old, isn't that so impressive?"

[not_only]

He smiles and nods agreement.

"...I hope Edie asks him to put on pants before the next time we see him, a random guy being naked is a little weird but seeing a guy who's had sex with my sister naked is just ew."

[not_only]

"Um. Yes," agrees Sivath.

[iamnotpolaris]

"Ugh. So. Magic."

[not_only]

"What about magic, specifically?"

[iamnotpolaris]

"Something that has nothing to do with my sister's pants. Um, so, the bee gun, that sounded ridiculous and also awesome. Are there any other guns that shoot completely ludicrous projectiles?"

"I don't exactly have a list with me, we'd have to go back to Terraria and ask one of the person-things... oh, there's the Magical Harp. It shoots glowing purple musical notation. But it's a harp, not a gun."

[iamnotpolaris]

"That is awesome. Does it also make music or just pain?"

[not_only]

Giggle.

"It makes music too, but I'm not very good at playing it."

[iamnotpolaris]

"I don't really know how to play a harp either, but it's a learnable skill!"

[not_only]

"Well, I haven't been learning it very successfully, I guess."

[iamnotpolaris]

"You didn't have a teacher! I'm sure we can find someone who can teach us to play a harp one of these universes."

[not_only]

He smiles in appreciation of the phrasing.

[iamnotpolaris]

"Of course, when you're literally hurting someone by playing the instrument maybe it's more appropriate to play badly."

[not_only]

"I'd rather play it well."

[iamnotpolaris]

"Well, of course. But in the meanwhile, thematic appropriateness."

[not_only]

"I guess."

[iamnotpolaris]

"So, when next we find civilization, you get harp lessons and architecture books."
