[video] ⚔ days gone by

[croibhristeoir]

That was certainly quite the virus.

[Lancer didn't seem too bothered by the whole thing; if anything his expression was thoughtful as he mentally reviewed recent events. He idly twirled the pen held in his right hand, choosing his words carefully as ever before speaking again.]

Is that how normal humans live these days? [Honest curiosity. Diarmuid would readily admit he had a narrow view of what counted for 'normal', especially in a modern timeframe.]

It was...nice, I think.

Comments

[unknownrival]

It was, wasn't it.

[croibhristeoir]

It was a nice break from the usual chaos, yes.

[unknownrival]

I do think they got a few details wrong, but viruses usually do.

[anothersoul]

I can't say for certain. I'm not usually that age but it wasn't exactly an unpleasant experience.

[croibhristeoir]

It was definitely an experience unlike any I've had before, and that may well be saying something.

[anothersoul]

I do hope I can make up for lost time; that virus was quite longer than normal.

Permavid;

[healinguilt]

I.. was a professor during that virus, but the student life I saw was exactly as it was when I had been an undergraduate.

[ /born in 1989! ]

[croibhristeoir]

[Wow Naomi you're old, says the mun born with barely a week left in '89.]

Is that right? I didn't have any knowledge of such things until now.

...It was somewhat fun, actually.

[healinguilt]

[ She's like... 30 right now. Yep. ] I suppose that from your time not many had the opportunity to enroll in higher education.

[oceanicbutterfly]

For certain interpretations of "normal."

[croibhristeoir]

I suppose the concept does vary somewhat. I wouldn't know what's 'normal' for humans at all.

[heavenlyhome]

Longer than any other that I know of and more peaceful at the same time. It was nice, wasn't it? I had wondered what university would be like. If they are all like that, I would have enjoyed the experience.

[croibhristeoir]

I think I might have as well, really. It was certainly something.

[glass_secret]

I don't know if that was a normal mundy college life or not, but I thought it was fun. Too bad I didn't get a chance to put on my fashion show.

[croibhristeoir]

That's a shame. I'm sure it would have been fun.

[harlol]

It was a lot of fun! I'm glad to have my ears and tail back, but I miss my rabbits. Although it's probably good that they're gone because I might not be able to stop myself from chasing them!

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

Well, we can hardly have that. I'm told no one really eats rabbits anymore.

[aquaticrush]

*Welp, awkward. Especially since she's been pretty sure he's been avoiding her since before the virus even happened, and she can't really blame him. She almost doesn't reply, but the video's already on so she may as well. He can always just ignore it, right?*

It was really nice. Did you get anything at the bake sale for the animal shelter?

[croibhristeoir]

No, I'm afraid I missed that.

[harbingersoul]

It was strange. I was older.

[croibhristeoir]

That is a little strange. How much older were you?

[chuanifrinn]

Heh...considering an academic career. Glasses are a smart look for you you know.

[croibhristeoir]

I'm not considering anything! And I don't wear them to make a fashion statement, thank you very much!

[scanningutterly]

[The teenager with a slight computer-generated look shrugs.]

Depends on what you mean by "these days." It seemed pretty accurate for the early 21st century.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

I think that's the general timeframe I was referring to, yes.
