"Otherwise I'd get bored!"

Permalink

"Is that a human thing or a Bella thing?"

Permalink

"Some of both, I think. Lots of variety among humans."

Permalink

"Elves too, but I don't know anyone who'd get bored only ruling one world."

Permalink

"I wasn't necessarily anticipating ruling any of the worlds in question other than Mars. I mean, not that I'd say no."

Permalink

"I bet they at least make you an honorary princess."

Permalink

"Well, that wouldn't be the fun part of ruling Mars, but again wouldn't say no."

Permalink

"What would the fun part be?"

Permalink

"Designing and implementing one or more utopias! With immense magical power!"

Permalink

"I really hope it works."

Permalink

"Me too!"

Permalink

"What would a utopia you ran be like?"

Permalink

"Depends on whether 'infinite energy, wish granting device' is as stupidly flexible and powerful as it sounds, there might be some limit on energy throughput or something that means I have to get creative. And I'd want to talk to some people who might want to live there before designing anything in for sure."

"Fair enough.

I think Doriath pretty much would be a utopia for Elves, if not for the war, but utopias for humans would be different."

Permalink

"Yeah. Now the real challenge would be the mixed utopia!"

Permalink

"It'd have to be really really pretty, and not change too often or Elves would get overwhelmed, but not change too slow or humans would get bored! And the Elves would all panic if there were human girls going around kissing each other."

Permalink

"All the Elves? There are no more Canadian sorts of Elves?"

Permalink

"The Avari, maybe, because they can't stand the Valar."

Permalink

"Why can't they?"

Permalink

"Dunno. I've never met any. When the Valar invited us to Valinor they're the ones who said 'no thanks'. 

The Noldor don't like the Valar either but it's because the Valar exiled them for the Kinslaying, not because they think the Valar are wrong about girls kissing."

Permalink

"I mean, I suppose if Elves are in fact all heterosexual I could just try to convince anybody who wanted to live in my utopia that humans are different and no Valar ever told us how to behave and this is not because they didn't get around to it but because it doesn't apply. Otherwise I'm not seeing this winding up any other way than 'my utopia is a refuge for gay Elves'."

Permalink

 

"That would be interesting."

Permalink

"Which way around?"

Permalink

"Your utopia having a lot of gay Elves. I guess that's one way to see if anything bad happens."

Permalink

"What would happen?" wonders Bella.
