10 ~ comparing those worlds to this boring, normal life [audio/picture]

[menial]

['Well. It sure got cold pretty fast, huh? Which means that I'm rapidly approaching the one-year mark, so I should really be proud. Or something. After burrowing myself away to avoid complications from refugees, my antisociality has reached a certain limit.

Unfortunately, I also have nothing to contribute beyond the observation about the weather which I already blithely used up there! Not that people can read my thoughts, but if they could, they'd find out. Well, they'd find out a lot of things. But who would want to anyway? It would just go on and on without any point.

Anyway, I guess I'll poorly disguise my attempt to see who's up for a random conversation with some kind of opener. Hey, if I were at home, this would be a mind-scarring Omegle session or something. At least I'm pretty sure I won't run into the usual problems stranger-chatting over the journal.'

...and so:]

So I found this in a book the other day.



Maybe this doesn't work as well over the journal, but I thought it was cool, anyway. Or at least different from discussions about fire and eternal suffering, continued kidnapping, disappearance, reappearance, cross-dressing, and so on.

Whatever, the points is to keep your bases covered.

[menial]

You won't cover them if you're bringing in multiple gods to a monotheistic religion...

[godbent]

There's like a bojillion worlds, they can all have made one of them.

[menial]

So what's the point of covering a few more bases if there's a bajillion gods?

[godbent]

Because three out of a bojillion is still higher than two out of a bojillion when you're playing with beings of infinite power. It's infinite power, infinite odds, and infinite numbers! The infinity all cancels itself out.

[menial]

Yeah, but why cultivate the extra one-bajillionth when you could just drink tea or something instead? One bajillionth isn't going to help anyone.

[godbent]

With the infinite nature of it cancelled out I think we can roughly narrow it to one in a million, and in the sale of the multiverse, that's likely.

[menial]

Okay, okay. You're the multiverse expert.

['Actually, I am, but whatever.']

[godbent]

It's good that you recognize that.

[menial]

I'll recognize whatever as long as you stop saying things like "I'll turn your life around in five minutes."

[godbent]

I never say things like that when they aren't true. Just trust me and things'll work out okay.

[menial]

...

You know, for the record, I do that already. Trust you to make sure things work out okay.

[godbent]

W....well, good! That's good.

[menial]

...


Yeah. So don't let me down.

['Heh.']

[godbent]

[Of course she won't! Hah! In face, he laughs herself out, assuredly ]
