so hey i'm Asking For A Friend ;) but how many other immortals are here in the quarantine? any?

also! important question!! what did everyone get told when they got here? what questions did you ask? i wanna know what we're working with! Let's Work Together!

p.s., if you want to answer the first question without a name there are burner phones available at
[ small list of locations ] to make unattached accounts. i'm just looking for at least numbers! names would be radical too of course!

sort of like having blue eyes. something along those lines. no lab accidents or cosmic happenstance that i've ever heard of.

i can control electricity with my mind, for instance. perfectly normal for me and where i'm from. lots of folk have something extranormal. manifests in different ways.

i can short it out ;p but not much for turning it to my nefarious bidding.

i've never had any complaints.

[Then again, she OP as fuck. She usually leads with the electrokinetic thing because it's a concept most forward-thinking folks can grasp. As to the rest, well. She isn't shy, but she's rarely in a rush.]

suppose it depends on how you define usefulness! you'd definitely be the guy i want on my team during extreme paintball.

what exactly do you take me for, here? a purveyor of senseless violence??

'pain still hurts'. truer words have never been said. i guess we can dial it back to actual paintball... but then i'll have to think up another scenario for usefulness.

linguistics? history? i think both those things are quite useful also.

oh i'm not nearly as witty as i am dashing and charismatic, sadly. one can only be so talented.

seems like there's a lot of folks from earth, i'm sure someone would appreciate the esotericism nonetheless.

alternately: new career as an anthropology professor?

oh, i'd say i've got a few good years left in me, at any rate. always strive for improvement, and all :)

this is the first i'm hearing on the matter of 'doing' much of anything! beyond the prior nod to linguistics, at least. what do you do with yourself, sir/madame immortal? what is it that staves off the drudgery?

i will endeavour to think of an equivalent and get back to you on that.

do you have regenerists?
[there has got to be a better word for it than her specific instance with people who can reshape flesh at their will.] surgeons that restructure appearance?

you can't rush perfection, my dear.

heal over it sort of complicated?


[there's a bit of a pause, and then she sends another message,]

golly, i'm sorry. i'm talking your ear (presumably you have those?) off. usually it's the other way around. seeing how the other half lives is interesting, at least.

nah, i do public relations for a paramilitary peacekeeping corps. means a lot of media interaction. they like to pin me down for an absolutely excessive amount of questions.

[-- well, that's fair enough.]

so why the anonymity?

my sympathies, sweetheart. no easy thing, i imagine, regardless of experience.

[Whoever's on the other side of this line doesn't strike her as someone who's succumbed to apathy, but she isn't about to point that out or push. No one has a right to someone else's secrets. She's asking questions, of course, but those at least have been answered freely. This is a misdirection, and she'll respect it.]

goodness, what a macabre subject we stumbled on.

favourite earth tea? :)

i've tried coffee before, not quite to my taste but i'm glad you enjoy it of course!

no idea what earl gray is though. sounds like it'd taste like dishwater. presumably not?
