Has anyone here ever heard of someone called Nicholas Flamel?

I have.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

You have?

Who is he?

[treatinferiors.livejournal.com]

A wizard.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

What sort of wizard?

[treatinferiors.livejournal.com]

A very old sort. He's famous for creating the Philosopher's Stone, I think. It's been awhile since I paid much attention in History of Magic.

... The Philosopher's Stone.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[treatinferiors.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome.

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

Hey, kid! This (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Flamel) might help!

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

... It does. Thank you.

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

Tell us how it goes when you're done, ok?

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Done with what? What makes you think I'm doing anything?

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

Isn't this a research project to discover something?

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Sometimes it's just for fun.

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

That's also good!

This Philosopher's Stone thing...that's also pretty interesting! Although a lot of it's uses don't seem very useful, such a varied thing could come in handy!

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Oh, it probably doesn't even exist. It's never been found.

[SORRY KEFKA, SHE'S SEEN ENOUGH OF YOU THAT SHE DOESN'T TRUST YOU]

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

Yes, but it has some practical applications. Flexible glass? Lamps that never go out? I'm all over that! Illness healing could be useful, but what are they defining as "illness"? Oh, I should try and make one!

Nn? The alchemist who they said made a Philosopher's Stone, ain't it? I don't know a whole lot more than that, but...

[carriesparasol.livejournal.com]

I've read some things about his work. Have you an interest in his works?

[Small female child looking into Nicholas Flamel? You have her interest.]

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Oh, and you should start paying attention in class again.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

I don't think you could.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

That's all right. Thank you.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Oh, very much.

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

Well, some parts of it are pointless. Immortal life is impossible and even if it wasn't, it'd be completely boring! Who wants to live forever? I wouldn't! And gold, I can make things more beautiful than gold myself. But flexible glass would be useful, and illness healing would come in handy!

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

You don't want to live forever?

[MAYBE SHE WAS KIND OF WRONG ABOUT YOU, KEFKA]

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

No! Can you imagine how awful it'd be? It'd be fun at first, probably, but then everyone you know would die. Your home crumbles as history takes it's toll. Civilizations rise and fall; technology changes, rises, falls, and everyone you meet dies. Eventually, all of humanity is dead. The animals around you are not like you remember. Time passes. The sun goes out. Nothing is left but you, alone.

Yuck! What a nasty future to have. I'll die when I die and that's how it is!

[HE MAY BE EVIL, BUT HE'S NOT VOLDY. HE EMBRACES DEATH.]

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

I think I agree with you.

[carriesparasol.livejournal.com]

If only I were home right now. I would be able to share the books in my father's library, but I'm afraid I'm very far from there at the moment.

[sandinmyboots.livejournal.com]

I don't get why that's such a focus for people!

If I had a choice, I'd prefer something like: I will live without illness or injury until this day, and then I'll definitely die on this day. Or something like that.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

That's all right. I've gotten enough information to figure things out myself, I think.

[carriesparasol.livejournal.com]

Excellent. There is nothing worse than being in need of information and not being able to secure any sources.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

Oh, exactly!

[carriesparasol.livejournal.com]

When I return home, if you are ever in need of other information I would not mind sharing what books I have in my library.

[bookishnettler.livejournal.com]

That would be incredibly useful. Thank you very much!

[carriesparasol.livejournal.com]

Certainly. My name is Alexia Maccon should you need to seek me out.
