two immortals walk into a bar

[eonflamewing]

Come, all ye immortals... You walk into a bar. Maybe you were given a ticket by a fellow passing immortal, or had the prescience to obtain one yourself - whichever it is, the well-polished key will take you to an establishment that operates outside the confinements of spacetime. A bar exclusively for immortals, whether you were born this way or attained it as a mortal being. Gods, demons, vampires - no matter what you are, you are welcome here. It serves a myraid of drinks and snacks catered to the tastes of every world, so it's easy to find something palatable (even including human souls, if that's your preferred food). A corridor leads down the lounge to a variety of other rooms. Opening a door would transform it into a pool room, a singing room, or perhaps a quiet place for meditation. The establishment responds to the will of its patrons - as long as you behave, you will be allowed to stay here for as long as you like. Come in and take a seat. Maybe there's someone looking for you. [ this meme is for nonhuman characters who have lifespans longer than humans. OU, AU, OC, whichever goes! ]

I can't have grown.

[He has indeed grown, but hasn't really noticed - it was too gradual, too unexpected, and his clothes have always been on the too-big side so nothing got uncomfortable.]

Nations can't grow without their people around.

Big bro is Firo Prochainezo and mother is Rey Prochainezo and I am Muscovy Maglorion Prochainezo now. [And all of that is narrated with a lot of pride. FAMILY WAS MADE.] ...Big bro should be somewhere around here.

Are you sure?

[ Maglor teases with a fond hair ruffle ]

I am sure you are a little taller than I remember. Perhaps you have new people now, with your new family. I would like to meet him, and thank him for looking after you - perhaps we can search for him together?

[muscovy]

...I do.

[He adopted new people. One or two, sure, but... he did.]

We can search together! Big bro Firo likes gambling, so if there is a gambling room he will be there. But he doesn't gamble.

[He doesn't understand this one entirely. But that doesn't mean that it can't be.]

[bythewaves]

So there you go. [ Maglor says fondly and raises an eyebrow at that ]

Oh? Does he like to watch, then?

[muscovy]

He likes to make sure that nobody is being silly about it.

That is what he does back home. [He has the most morally excellent surrogate parents, on all counts of everything.]

[bythewaves]

Being silly?

[ Maglor really wonders what this brother does now ]

That is nice of him, to continue his work when he is not at home.

[muscovy]

That nobody cheats or is mean to others.

He is very nice!

[bythewaves]

[ ... ]

He sounds like a very nice and responsible young man. [ Maglor smiles ] I'm glad you have good family like that to look after you.

[muscovy]

He is.

[He nods happily.]

You would like him! He is a bit like Celegorm.

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor thinks privately that that's hardly an encouraging comment, but he smiles and ruffles Muscovy's hair ]

I'm glad he looks after you. What's your new world like?

[muscovy]

It is very warm and there are not many people, and there aren't many plants or animals that are edible. But there are very few things that are trying to eat us, too. [So it all evens out in the end, in his opinion.]

[bythewaves]

Fewer things that try to eat you is good! [ Maglor agrees ]

Do they provide food, if you cannot hunt?

[muscovy]

[He tilts his head in puzzlement, not sure if he understood the question correctly.]

We scavenge as much as we hunt.

[bythewaves]

No supplies provided? [ Maglor frowns in concern ] Do you have enough, Muscovy? I could try and leave extra things here for you to take, if needed.

[muscovy]

We have enough to survive. [And normally he would leave it there, to not reveal weakness. But this is his father, and thus he'll actually list what they really need, because he trusts him.] We need a new waterproof blanket, and a wetstone and two new knives, and medical supplies. And mother needs a new shirt. And food would be nice. [None of them can die from starvation, but that doesn't mean that starving is nice.]

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor nods, memorising the list ]

I will see what I can bring. [ He promises ] Although food I can do right now, for you! I think a good meal is in order, eh?
