004 - Mincemeat

[deadly_ned]

Hello, Barge. My name is Ned, and I have a completely arbitrary and unrelated question to ask.

If you had a minute - 60 seconds - with any person currently dead and could talk and interact with them as normal, alive people would...

What would you say or ask them?

I suppose this question goes to the people who are currently...dead....and have alive people back home they're separated from as well.

It's an odd question, I know. But I've been...curious, lately.



Also, would the elf who took my wallet please give it back now? I hope you remember me; I was the piemaker dressed as a Franciscan monk. I hate to treat the network as my own personal Lost Connections newsletter but I really didn't know what other way to get in touch with you.

And if you're not actually an elf, I'm sorry for calling you one.

I would have probably used my powers in the worst possible ways.

[deadly_ned]

To be fair, some powers seem like much more of a curse than a gift.

/FIXES P:

Indeed. And if I hadn't had my parents to remind me how my powers made me able to actually make a change, to save people when they most needed it... I would have seen them as a curse.

Some powers are just a curse.

It was lucky you had your parents to help you through it.

[hetrustsme]

You could say my life is both the luckiest and the most unlucky.

Depending on whether you're an optimist or a pessimist?

[hetrustsme]

Indeed. It's like my powers: it can both be considered a blessing and a curse.

You're lucky. Sometimes powers can only act as curses.
