Nineteen Truffula Trees

[The Once-ler would be lying if he hadn't thought about this before. He'd been considering it for a couple of months now, but with Ted's arrival, with a seed of his own (a seed that was GROWING, more importantly) he figured it was time.

It terrified him, of course. It was a big step, and a big risk. If he got this wrong, it could destroy his world's future for good. He'd put the final nail in the coffin he'd been making them with his own foolish actions for the past five years. He couldn't chance another foolish, arrogant risk.

But he was also excited, a small sliver of hope had treacherously sneaked into him. This could be something he could do. It was the promise for...something. Redemption, maybe? The chance to make up for what he'd done back home, here in this Paradisa. Something to finally give him some semblance of inner peace.

And so, he takes a deep, calming breath, before speaking into the journal. Unsure. Unsure of if this would work, unsure if this was ultimately the right thing to do and terrified he'd miss his chance if it WAS
]

I have a question. Hypothetical question. Say you come here, to Paradisa, with a thing. Doesn't have to be a specific thing, this is just a hypothetical thing. And when you leave, you leave that hypothetical thing behind. Does that mean that hypothetical thing stays here forever, and this is the super important part does that mean that thing stops existing in your world?

I mean, some of you have left and come back with memories, right? Would anyone know the answer to this question?

...This purely hypothetical question.

Please?

Welll, hypothetically speaking, Paradisa doesn't want to give any reason for people from other worlds to question of it's existence. That's why we don't age, get sent back to the moment we left and have our memories wiped.

So I'd say the same goes for items. People would notice if a super important item went missing all of a sudden, so that probably gets sent back too eventually.

Uh...butterflies are insects, Once-ler. Not mammals. They don't make milk.
wilder: (secondhand embarrasement)

Once-ler

[personal profile] wilder 2013-01-16 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
But...even if they could they're so small. It'd be like a drop of milk.
wilder: (sarcasm - oh yeah whatever)

Sure that's not the smell of plain old butterfly?
wilder: (cheee- no.)

For crying out loud Once-ler, people don't get murdered in their sleep in my world at a rate different from any other world.
