05 | Action for Everglade/Anon Text

[Baldur had finished drinking the... whatever the fuck people called blood these days. As he looked at the bag it was once in he couldn't help but be disgusted by it. He would much rather have it fresh from the neck. At least the taste was sweeter as the fear of the victim was obvious, but it seemed like in his time here he felt as if Everglade was not what it should be.

Vampires being told they should drink from the bag, werewolves he was pretty sure would get arrested if they so much as hunted their usual pray for sustenance. Sure, he normally wouldn't give two shits about creatures like that as to him they were lower class beings, but in a city where monsters should rule the roost it was being made clearly obvious that much like the other cities, Everglade was being catered to protecting humans to the point where he felt like humans ruled the roost, even if the Guardian was not one themselves.

Maybe a humans pet was in his mind. But regardless he throws the bag on the floor, not a care in the world about picking it up as he moved to walk on ahead, an idea slowly brewing up in his mind.

But in order to be exact in achieving this plan he knew he should do research. So first things first asking people certain questions. So he found a quiet spot that he knew people didn't come to and got out his device.]

So I have a question. when it comes to Everglade who do you think it is catered to most? Do you think it's even footing between humans and non-humans or do you think that it's one-sided and that one side seems to take over the other?

I honestly want to know what people believe and see if people think the same thing or if opinions are different.

[This one comes under the handle "CoolSkeleton95"]

THAT DEPENDS ON WHERE THEY GO! VISIT THE TORCHWOOD FOOD STALL FOR THE BEST CATERING IN THE CITY, COURTESY OF THE GREAT CHEF PAPYRUS WHO WORKS THERE.

You mean that lame place?

IF IT'S LAME THEN IT CERTAINLY ISN'T THE STALL, WHICH IS FULL OF COOLNESS AND CHARM.

You do realize if you say it like that doesn't make it cool. It actually makes it come across as the opposite.

THE COOLNESS IS SELF-MADE. I MERELY PROCLAIM.

I still beg to differ though. A cool person doen't say they are cool.

HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY!

Oversharing however is not.

DOES THE SUN OVERSHARE ITS LIGHT? SO IS COOLNESS NEVER OVERSHARED.

It can kill people, so yes. I mean there is a reason you are told never to stare into it. It will bitch slap you.

[Hard to tell if he is kidding or being serious.]

OH NO!!! WELL, THANK GOODNESS THERE ARE PEOPLE LIKE ME TO COOL PEOPLE OFF!!

[He types nyehfully]

I mean you can cool a dead person off, but they would still be dead. Sun can kill you instantly. Nothing you can do about it.

[This question gets Tyki's interest like nothing else.]

I've not been here long enough to say one way or the other, but I'd be very interested in knowing what the general consensus is.

From what I have seen most creatures are told to go to certain places in order to get food. You get in trouble if you do the normal creature thing. The businesses are run by people that look human but not sure 100% if they are or not. So I assume that humans consider others to be lower class citizens and that it's their way or starve.

But I am curious about what others might say.

Interesting. So you feel like humans got dealt a better hand? Or am I mistaken?

I am too. This is something worth talking about.

That is only from what I have seen. For all I know there is a lot more to it, which would require a lot more people watching.

But that will get boring.

And no one wants to waste time with boring.

If someone wanted to, ain't going to stop them in wasting time with boredom. I mean watching means I learn, but can only do so much every day before it gets boring.

Then I would need to do something more fun. But my definition of fun is perhaps the opposite of others.

And what would your definition of fun be?

In my world tormenting others was always something I found to be fun. Screwing them over was just... interesting.

Everyone needs a hobby I suppose.

What would your hobby be?

Certainly nothing so interesting. I just enjoy cards and fishing.

By cards you mean gambling, right?

Though what is it about fishing that people like?

That's right. It's good a way to earn a little money and enjoy yourself while you do it.

Fresh fish.

Isn't it fun to win over someone else and feel that sense of superiority?

So you must really like fish.

A fool and his money are soon parted. That's how the saying goes, I think. I truly enjoy being the one to help the separation happen.

Yes. And I enjoy free food just as much. It's hard to beat a fresh meal that you don't have to waste any coin on.

I guess it should be something I take up myself at some point.

Free food, huh? I still guess you do something in order to even get it for free even if you don't pay for it.

Could be wrong though.

You'll have nothing but encouragements on this idea from this anonymous source. Gamble away, and ruin the fools that think they've got a chance.

It's not work at all, it's just an easy lazy afternoon. I suppose you still have to cook it though, if you're interested in eating it with a little char to the skin.

Or it will go the other way around. I guess it would be the luck of the draw.

I mean to get fish you would still fish for it. Still doing something to get it. But yes I guess cooking would count as doing something too. Then again would probably do something like that if I needed to. Hunting can be a fun sport and you get a free meal out of it.

If you're cheating well enough, luck has no say in it. I suppose if you get someone who's also cheating, that might be something that would involve the luck of the draw.

I think the fun of it overrides the work. But to each their own. Are you a hunter?

Don't humans still have a curfew in Everglade where they have to be inside or be considered prey and forfeit all rights? As far as I know that isn't true for any non-humans who can communicate anywhere else. It's a shame not everyone is comfortable in the other cities, but I don't think alienating people one way or another solves anything.

I thought they got rid of that rule? I guess Everglade is a mess in more ways than one if one cannot keep up with what rules are around.

It doesn't. Making all fight it out does however work. That's how it worked in my world. If anyone could defeat the King before all of the king's children reached the age of maturity they were free to make the rules. Never has anyone outside of a demon been able to do such a thing though.

News to me.

Um, that sounds like a pretty dysfunctional system of government. Have you looked into the alternatives other worlds use instead? It might be better.

Nope. Don't care about how others do it. I mean look at Fayren and how their way worked out.

There are flaws in every system. No system will ever be perfect.

Isn't Fayren a divine monarchy?

Yeah, I've heard that before. But only in trying can you get any better.

Yes and they went missing for a long time. While my world had something similar the only time the King would leave was to fight in the front lines with his men.

Yeah, which makes it pretty much identical to your world.

I meant different ones. DIFFERENT.

Well minus the whole fighting thing.

And the many, many children. Current King has 13, which is a pretty nice number, though considered unlucky to some, I consider it a challenge being that unlucky number.
