I have to say, if this is the afterlife? I'm extremely disappointed. You could at least make some effort, hand out some wings or something. Possibly a harp, although I don't really have any use for one. Still, it would have been nice to have been offered one. I'm not really sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't this.

Is there still telly when you're dead?

	Not dead, though you're kind of making me want to throw an afterlife themed party with harps and wings. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I was a few seconds from dead before I came here, saw the curse heading for me and everything. If I'm not dead, that was one hell of a rescue, James. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, yeah. [...] Well, you know. Swooping in to save the day at the last second is kind of my style, isn't it? The scientists must have taken a leaf out of my book. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's just that if I'm not dead and I also wasn't rescued... I have no idea what's going on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It looks like you've gotten some of the explanation so far. Anything else you're still stuck on? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You've actually been taken by mad scientists (with or without the 'mad', I'm currently including that part wholeheartedly). (Reply to this) (Thread)

	fenwicker 2013-06-09 09:05 am UTC (link)
	Well, I suppose that I could give the afterlife points for creativity, if nothing else. I wonder if there's a way to go back and let the vicar know "No, actually it's just mad scientists"? I don't suppose you're one of them, are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, you aren't dead. I think the afterlife could be far more creative than mad scientists. I expect unicorns living among the ents with bushes that bloom only desserts. Nope. I was taken too. Here. That's the pamphlet that sort of explains things a bit more. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Pretty sure I'm dead, because one second I was very much about to be, and the next second I was suddenly somewhere very different. I'd be fine without the unicorns, personally. I got attacked once by one in CoMC. They're not that friendly when startled, did you know that? Of course, that was my own fault, trying to get a closer look when the blokes were told point blank they didn't like us much to start with.

...I think I'm sticking with very creative afterlife.

How else do you expect instantaneous time/space travel to work? If this were the afterlife, you'd deserve to be disappointed, but thankfully it isn't. Sounds like you equally deserved the attack. I did know that, actually. In my world, they're less friendly with the birds, but then again we are the 'genderswapped' version of colour world. However, mama and I have spent plenty of afternoons as unicorns.

Maybe you'll come around when you realize you're stuck here in non-fantasy land with the rest of us.

I can't say I ever knew that either was possible outside of Star Trek, and as sad as it is to believe, I'm not on a space ship. Although I think I should be thankful for the rescue if instantaneous time/space travel really is what happened here. Oh, I'm not denying at all that I was, trust me the Mediwitch made sure to let me know it was my own fault while she was fussing over me and trying to heal the hole in my hand. ...huh. So I guess they all rush to put their heads down on blokes to take a nap on, then, where you're from? Interesting. Probably would have been much less painful for me if I was from there. ...Unicorn animagi?

Go figure, neither did I. No space ship but apparently we flip into other worlds and they have been to some stellar spots? We've stuck to this town for the whole week I've been here so I'm not entirely sure what the deal is anymore. [...] ~~Are you certain you're~~ I'm sorry. That you're dying, if you really are. Not that I don't believe you, just that it's possible you may live. [...] Thank Merlina for the Mediwitch then. Yup. But if you were yourself from here, then you'd just be a girl. Metamorphagus. I'm Bennett, btw. And/or Batman.

If I'm here, would I still be dying though? I figured I was rescued since I'm not there anymore. Which means I probably should find a way home before my parents or little sister think I'm missing or I get fired for missing my shift at the hospital. Brilliant, what you're saying is I wind up with what has to be the most embarrassing classroom injury no matter if I was me or a girl version of me?

Nice to meet you, Batman. I can't tell you what a huge fan I am.

Nope! Apparently we're not even missing and life continues on back home with us. Well, I suppose it's more that no time passes at home. It would also make sense that we don't even remember this - otherwise, we could change our futures and that would just ruin everything. Pretty much. But hey, I'm sure someone's done something far more embarrassing. I've tripped on the stairs numerous times.

Aw shucks! Wicked, isn't it? And you're Benjy? Benny's for the win, let me tell you. What year are you from?

	Hi, Alice. I suppose you're going with the "this isn't the afterlife" theory as well? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Unless paperwork at the Ministry literally bored me to death, which would be probably the worst possible way to go, I'm going to say no. Plus my tea came with me and that would just be odd. ~~And you'd have been here before me~~ (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Not dead. Unsure on the whole telly bit. Mostly because I cannot recall exactly what a 'telly' is. (Reply to this) (Thread)
