!complete, day 14, edward scissorhands, location: library, open, ramirez

Who: Ramirez and Open
Where: The Library
When: Day 14, 10:00 am
Why: To find answers

Ramirez laid there near a book shelf, a stack next to him. He didn't care about anything else, but he wanted to read. He always loved to read, and wished to know everything about this world and what was going on. Unfortunately, he wasn't finding anything on Vas Captio or why he might be here. Mostly ridiculous stories that obviously weren't true, or some theories on the universe that he found inferior to Silvite knowledge. Regardless, he continued to pour them into his head, until he fell asleep late at night. There into the morning he slept, unless someone happened by him and disturbed his sleep. He was a light sleeper.

"I'm a person! Maybe human once? It doesn't matter, isn't important!" Edward rambled. Usually self-conscious of his inhuman appearance, it was the least of his worries, today. The man wasn't running, at least, so Edward figured that he'd made a new friend. This day just kept getting better and better!

Edward talked for ten minutes, easily. It was probably more words than he'd ever spoken in his life, and definitely more than he'd ever spoken at once. He prattled on happily about his ENTIRE story of his ENTIRE life, emotionally relating the Inventor, Peg, Kim, Kevin, and everyone else he had met, even Jim. Even though he was clearly passionate, he never swore, using only very simple vocabulary words, his hands twitching to punctuate his thoughts.

"Valua? Valua... it sounds pretty! What is a ship?" Edward asked, peering at the man with innocent, brown eyes.

Ramirez could see it spoke and wasn't attacking, and had become calm and began to ramble himself about his own experiences, and listen to this scissorhanded man. "No, it isn't important. You're right." Why was he feeling this way? It was obscure.

Ramirez nodded and listened, finding Edward's entire story intriguing. An android? And the persecution he was faced with? It was all astounding. Sure, they had robotics in Arcadia, but never anything like this. The closest thing to an android would be Fina or Ramirez themselves, as he theorized the elders created them but they were organic.

"You've lived quite an interesting life in a short amount of time. You shouldn't have to face the persecution you have been through, its too much. Oh, ships? They are large machines, or maybe similar to houses? They carry people from one place to another. In Arcadia, we use them in the sky and power them with crystals that fall from the six moons we have there. They are magical you see."

Looking nearby, he'd spot a book on boats and pull it out, opening it up and showing Edward a picture of one. "This is a ship. Ours looked something like this."

Edward would just as soon sprout wings and start flying than attack a person. Jim was the exception, of course, but that was different. He'd hurt Kim. Of course, Ramirez would know all about Jim by the time Edward finished his story, which he did in a happy, simple, rambling way. The miracle of his existence didn't seem to strike him, nor did his unusually talkative condition. Something was wrong today, but Edward was too happy to notice or care.

"Very interesting, and not so short!" Though Edward wasn't aware of how long, exactly, his life had been, it had been over fifty years since he'd first come into being. He listened, wide-eyed and fascinated, to Ramirez's explanation of ships. He had never seen spaceships or nautical ones, having never personally been near a large body of water, but the way Ramirez described them sounded wonderful, indeed. He leaned forward, taking in the image of the ship. "So big! The people in the picture are so small... how does something so big float? Is it alive like me?"

Oh Ramirez smiled and nodded, listening all about Jim. "What a bad guy...I'd have hurt him too for attacking her." Ramirez nodded. He couldn't understand cowardly, pathetic creatures like this Jim person. It was the type of person with just no power, and so he had to lash out at others around him.

Hearing Edward's questions made him go into detail now. "Oh well you see the way they are built and designed, they can float on water. In my world however, we have six moons which each represent an element of magic. Every so often, moons drops crystals and we call them moon crystals. We use these moon crystals as a source of power, and it makes our ships fly and gives energy for all sorts of things and machines."
