You're crazy. Are all of you humans this crazy?

Relax lizard I was just...venting a bit.

That's a really weird way to vent. You hurt yourself.

They're just scrapes.

[And Monodramon and Sam both finally notice that the D-Terminal that had been knocked off a bench in the park had been turned on. Nothing seems too out of place between them if you discount the slight redness and light bleeding of knuckles and the slight signs of someone not coping well with things in Sam's face. But that look is gone quickly as the usual cocky little smirk is back as he picks the terminal up.]

Ignoring the little misunderstanding there. How many of us are actually old enough to be legal adults here? Because it's hard to tell amidst the swarm of kiddies and makes it a bit awkward to buy beer without feeling like I'm possibly destroying innocents with such an act.

What's so strange about buying beer?

[unknowing_user]

It's more trying to not have to answer awkward questions if some thirteen year old sees you buying it.

Bah. Even the most sheltered fools I know knew of beer or ale at that age. Anyone who doesn't deserves the wake-up call.

If their parents want them that sheltered I won't argue so long as they don't come at me with pitchforks for corrupting them. Some parents are crazy over stupid things.

Corruption is a noble still ignorant enough to think commoners can afford wine.

[They... may be having two entirely different conversations here.]

Wine in a box is a pretty cheap thing in most liquor stores.

[What dark age do you come from to use commoners as an actual description?]

[reckless_but_loyal]

[It's high fantasy, Sam, totally different. No it's not.]

If wine's so cheap, why are you bothering with beer?

[unknowing_user]

[All that means is you must be one of those weird LARPERs he's seen around downtown during the summer months.]

Because I don't exactly find the fruity taste of a lot of those wines to be all that good. And it's easier to carry a six pack to and from the store then wine bottles.

Are you some wine snob? Or are you still roleplaying that you live in a time before electricity?

[Hold that thought. Hector leans back and looks over his shoulder.]

Monodramon! What's "electricity"?

Electricity? It's a power source. Sort of a, um, controlled lightning, I think?

Like a Thunder tome?

[Hector's still not facing the camera directly, but enough of his expression is visible to make it clear that he's personally encountered Thunder tomes before and did not find it to be a very pleasant experience.]

Not, er. Exactly, milord.

[He clearly is just in another part of the crazy towns from the last one he was in. Because seriously?]

You notice how anytime you turn on the lights in your apartment? What turns them on is electricity dude. An electrical charge used to generate power.


[He's hoping you're just joking and messing with him now.]

Nothing like whatever it is these Thunder tomes are.

[video]

[reckless_but_loyal]

Is that what that is?

[If Hector is acting, he's doing quite the job of it; that is one hell of a confused look on his face.

Incidentally, he is now under the impression that light bulbs are filled with lightning.]

Not much like a Thunder tome at all. If magic were so easy, we'd have no knights left at all.

[unknowing_user]

...Yeah we'll just go with this. That's what it is exactly.

[Technically it isn't that far off right?]

Welcome to the twentieth century.
