[ The recent events have prompted Stan to be rather more quiet and reclusive than he is normally and he's even been mostly ignoring those he knows well. Too many things were reminding him negatively of Derry and he didn't particularly like facing that fear.

But it's about time to talk about something, anything. ]

If you had to guess, what do you think would be the most likely way you’ll die?

[ His thoughts aren't morbid lately or anything. ]

Most likely used as a human sacrifice for a madman.


Hello Stan. Were you, safe, through all of this?

Voice; @the.boneless

In battle surrounded by the corpses of my fallen enemies.

[He sounds very hopeful. There's no better death for Viking warrior. How else is he ever going to reach Valhalla?]

I'm definitely getting killed by something because of a demon or related to my show.

[It's very matter of fact, because honestly, she knows she's the love interest in this story, and they tend to get fridged in the final act. The problem with being genre savvy is... being genre savvy.]

[stantheman]

That doesn't sound very appealing.

Yeah.

[stantheman]

You like that idea?

[ It's more a probing question, like why would he like that idea since he sounded so positive about it and all. ]

[stantheman]

Definitely? How do you know for sure?

[nobasisinfact]

I can't say I'm fond of the idea.

Good.

[He might have been worried before Alex went missing.]

If you would like, you could stop by the house.
I've recently gained several interesting new books.

[stantheman]

Then you have to find a way to avoid it. You should die peacefully of old age, cardiac arrest in the middle of the night.

Okay. I've been wanting something new to read.

[nobasisinfact]

I doubt that's likely. But I appreciate the sentiment.

My father's house arrived early this month, so I have plenty for you to read.

eaten by a dinosaur maybe???

idk i didnt die that kind of death yet

[ Not as much of a big deal for him as it should be, since well, he died quite a few times back home. ]

[ragnarsson]

Of course. I'll be welcomed into the halls of Valhalla as a great warrior.

[That's all Ivar has ever truly wanted, to be acknowledged as a warrior to be remembered by his people and the gods.]

[11calls]

It's just a feeling I have with everything going on back home.

[She's not going to explain the other thing, not to a kid or on a public network, even if he is asking about death.]

Had you asked this some weeks ago, I would have said either burned alive at a pyre, or tortured to death by witch hunters.

Alternatively; bored to death in a rotting cabin in the middle of nowhere, my flesh gnawed by bedbugs and other filthy, disgusting creatures.

[ It's audible in Keira's tone she considers all those ends ignoble and not at all what she deserves. An affront, really. But her voice lilts cheerfully after a brief moment of contemplative silence. ]

Now, though? I really couldn't say, to be honest with you. Huh. Food for thought, I suppose!

[stantheman]

You never know.

Your father's house?

[stantheman]

Gyda talked about that place before. I don't think I really get it.

[stantheman]

Feelings can be wrong, though.

[ Not that he doesn't understand the sentiment. ]

[stantheman]

How would you get eaten by a dinosaur?

Wait, what do you mean?

[stantheman]

Are you a witch?

[luxurist]

Got it in one. Well, a sorceress. Any hedge mage conjuring up cheap slight-of-hands and reading fortunes from tea leaves may call herself a witch. [ A soft hmph of amusement follows. ]

But sorceresses are trained in the ways of real magic. At least it is-- [ she falters slightly. ] ...Well. Was, so where I come from.

[nobasisinfact]

The house he lived in before he died.

[A tricky topic, but one he would simply gloss over, for now.]

I was living in it until I could sell it. Earlier this month it arrived, so my, companion and I have been living there. You're welcome to stop by whenever you like.

[yakyuuman]

idk if i stepped out of quarantine and there are dinosaurs outside then its likely that i'll get eaten bc dinosaurs are awesome and id stare at them instead of running???

[ It makes sense to him, it really does. ]

if i listed all the times i died it'd take three pages or something LOL

[ragnarsson]

Valhalla is a place for warriors to spend eternity until Ragnarok comes. You drink, feast, and fight in preparation for the last battle at the end of the world. It's only just one of the four places a Norseman can end up at the end of their life.

[stantheman]

Oh. That must be nice.

I will come by.

[ He misses his house but it wouldn't do him any good without his parents inside of it. ]

[stantheman]

I think it's hard to understand the bloodlust in your culture sometimes. The thoughts of afterlife that I've known about are peaceful.

[stantheman]

Someone would probably save you.

I don't understand.
