Yeah, they're not fun. But they're not maybe quite as apocalyptic as the Biblical stuff.

[ranfromnormal]

Depends on the flavor, I guess. Our undead are friendly enough. I mean, by comparison to all of the things I see in fiction...

What are yours like?

[duelo]

Not friendly, that's for sure. They "survive" by eating the flesh of living humans, so, needless to say, you wouldn't want to get too close.

[ranfromnormal]

Well, ours enjoy a bit of a nip too but there are restaurants and bars for them. Are they sentient still, or more of the mindless groaning sort?

[duelo]

Mindless groaning, you made actual establishments for yours, they're that with it?

[ranfromnormal]

Well yeah. One of my boss' friends is a guy named Dead Boy. He brings his ghoulfriend around with him to the dive bar John likes, if they're not at one of the ones that cater to the undead. Or maybe he's dating a ghost lately? Hard to remember...

Can't get a decent meal in those places for the living-challenged, let me tell you.

[duelo]

Sounds very, very different than my experience.

Yeah, I bet.

[ranfromnormal]

Yours sounds awful. Sorry you've had to deal with that.

At least you're here now?

[duelo]

Yeah, it was pretty awful. I'm here now, though, so that's the important thing, yeah.

[ranfromnormal]

And from the look of your profile you didn't come alone? That's good. So much the better to be out of the crap and to take someone you care with you out of it too.

[duelo]

Right, yeah, my girlfriend is here with me. I wouldn't have been able to stay if she hadn't. I couldn't have left her back there, even if they say it's only a couple of seconds you're away when you go back, I just couldn't do it to her. So yeah, pretty much exactly that, yeah, thanks.

[ranfromnormal]

Perfectly understandable. There are a few people back home who probably wouldn't have been able to leave me behind...

...but they're all big names and powers so I didn't feel guilty at all about leaving them behind. They don't need me to watch their backs for those three seconds or so.

[duelo]

I'm not even going to ask.

[ranfromnormal]

Which means that this interest in getting to know one another is apparently one-sided.

That's cool. You can just say so and I'll go make friends with someone else. No harm, no foul.

[duelo]

Yeah, sorry, I don't really think we'd mesh. You seem kind of like I don't know, like you sort of relish that supernatural stuff and honestly I hated it. But it was nice to meet you, anyway.

[ranfromnormal]

I spent most of my life surrounded by normal, and they never accepted me. Made me feel like I was wrong and a freak, and constantly tried to change me.

So yeah, I relish the supernatural stuff because it's the city that took me in and the supernatural people who accepted me exactly as I am. I'm sorry you didn't have the same experience.

Take care.

[duelo]

I'm glad that you had a good experience and I'm sorry to hear about the way things were before for you, genuinely.

Our experiences just are on opposite sides of the spectrum.

You too, Cathy.
