Passed it again, huh. I keep losing track... wonder if it's a good thing.

....

Hey, so... does anybody have a particular day - or more than one, I guess - that means something to them? Not their birthday or a holiday or anything like that, I mean a regular, normal day where something important or significant happened to them. Could be good or bad, whatever.


[Zack's in a weird mood today, for... various reasons. He's also lounging in the hammock outside House 50, enjoying it while he can before the cold weather forces him to take it down, so if you happen to be in the area, feel free to bother him that way instead.]

Not really; think about is cosmically! Cos-mic-cal-ly! Your planet uses mako to power things which I've never heard of, we use nuclear power which you've never heard of - among other things - some other worlds might use other things. For someone here, the idea of thoughts powering things might be totally normal.

[wingenvy]

That would be pretty cool if a world could be fueled like that. Maybe that's where the experiments come from- some sort of backlash from the weird stuff the Malnosso think up to power the world!

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

No, no, that's just stupid. The experiments are clearly a Shift and the Shifts are probably caused by them. I bet the barrier is by us.

[wingenvy]

[.....Man, this kid doesn't pull his punches.] Well, nobody's really explained how they create Shifts, either.

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

There's different extents of them - personal ones and ones they generate with machines. Other that that... hm.

[wingenvy]

So how about the personal ones? If that's not imagination, I don't know what is.

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

I doubt it's just that. It's probably more like... [A long pause and then his tone drops a bit with-] belief, maybe.

[wingenvy]

Belief? Why do you think that?

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Well it's it too easy for it to be "you dream it, it happens?" You probably need to make yourself believe that something will happen.

[wingenvy]

Hmm... maybe. We'll probably never know until someone tells it to us straight.

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

I think the would point of this game is to guess before that.

[wingenvy]

Well, we both made guesses, but the game can't really end until the truth comes out and somebody wins, right?

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Hah. Sounds like a plan! We'll be presenting them next time, and the winner is who gets it right.

[wingenvy]

Fine by me! You should ask around and see if other people have their own theories. It could be a full-blown contest!

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a plan. It'll be a contest to see who can take John aback.

[wingenvy]

I dunno if anything can faze that guy.
