Jenny Sparks is gone from the castle. I thought... probably someone would want to know.

[He is certainly not his usual cheerful and/or violent self right now. Mostly because he's only been here a few months and he already hates this.]

Comments

[asseenontv]

Nor many of the ones I know. But we all take different paths.

[gottaknockhard]

[Ahah... He'd been joking, but he expected him not to catch that.]

I guess so.

[asseenontv]

[Shatterstar isn't very good with jokes. Human culture is confusing]

Jenny was a bit different than most. I don't know if it would be harder or easier for people to accept people like us if more were like her.

[gottaknockhard]

[His humor is too dry for even normal humans most of the time, so he shouldn't feel badly. As long as Spike finds it funny. -- But what this guy is talking about brings up an interesting concept. Magic-people problems.]

You run into that a lot?

[asseenontv]

I personally haven't had much trouble - I don't use my powers much. [And he's really good at beating up people who pick fights with him]

But yes, in my world, there's a fair amount of prejudice against people who were born mutants.

[gottaknockhard]

[...It sounds strange to him, but he could maybe understand how that could happen. Sort of.]

So it's a mutation thing?

[asseenontv]

In my world? Usually - though there are some who acquire similar powers through different means. As for Jenny's... I never asked.

[gottaknockhard]

[Odds are he wouldn't get it anyway. He's a simple guy.]

Might as well be magic.

[asseenontv]

Some people with mystic powers have similar abilities, yes.

[The point




Shatterstar]

[gottaknockhard]

The rest of us must seem pretty boring.

[asseenontv]

Actually, coming from a different world, I find all of humanity endlessly interesting.

[gottaknockhard]

You'd make a good spokesperson.

[asseenontv]

You think so?

[gottaknockhard]

We might need one.

[asseenontv]

How so?

[gottaknockhard]

You never know when the townsfolk will start getting nosy.

[asseenontv]

Oh. Well, sometimes I am not very good with people...

[gottaknockhard]

Too bad. I thought I was onto something.

[asseenontv]

There's probably someone here who'd do well at it.

[gottaknockhard]

Maybe not now that Jenny left.

[asseenontv]

Maybe. But maybe she'll come back. Or someone else who'd handle it well.

[gottaknockhard]

I've heard of that happening.

[asseenontv]

So have I. I'm not sure if it is something to hope for, or not...

[gottaknockhard]

Hard to say.

[If she does, she'll probably forget him. Life is funny around here.]

[asseenontv]

Indeed. I don't know if she preferred her to her home or not.
