"The bag's only partly full, right? How many more things could it hold for me to give out?"

Permalink

"Another 60 or so things."

Permalink

"Any recommendations?"

"I'm not sure. I don't think building materials are a good fit because there wouldn't be enough for anything like the number of people. I could give you more clothing. That seems like something a lot of people would want. I could also give you torches or other light sources or furniture. I'm not sure what else people want around here."

"Light would be nice, if it lasts, and clothes and like - pillows."

Permalink

"I can do all of that. Do you have any preference about what kind of lights you want? Most of what I have is freestanding but there are also lights that attach to walls or ceilings. They'll all keep working forever."

"Freestanding sounds good, we could have nighttime parties around them."

"How about this?" She produces a glowing ice sculpture about the same height as her.

"Wow, that's gorgeous -" Is it cold if he pokes it?

Permalink

It's cold to the touch but not when he holds his hand close.

Permalink

"Wild. Doesn't melt?"

Permalink

"People ask that a lot. Ice doesn't have a habit of melting in my experience."

Permalink

"If you find somebody whose thing has an ice machine in it and they give you ice it'll melt."

Permalink

She giggles, "I can make something called an ice machine. It's for transmuting ice based furniture like that lamp from ice and other necessary ingredients."

Permalink

"Wow. Regular ice machines just... freeze water, into ice, usually in some kinda shape."

Permalink

"You know, I'm pretty sure the only time I've seen something freeze is from ice attacks or the way people spontaneously freeze in cold water sometimes. That ice doesn't melt though it just disappears so I'm not sure it's really made from freezing water."

Permalink

"...people can die of cold, in cold water, but not, what, freeze solid?"

Permalink

"Oh, being frozen doesn't kill you it just prevents you from moving for a a few seconds before you unfreeze."

"Your world is very different from ours," he says bemusedly.

Permalink

"That seems like quite the understatement," she agrees.

Permalink

"What kinds of things go on there besides monster fights, is there like a music scene or anything?"

Permalink

"Some people do spend time playing music, I think there's other vacation universes that are designed to focus on that though so many people go there instead. The most common thing people do other than fighting monsters is building elaborate buildings and landscapes. Sometimes for functional purposes and sometimes just to enjoy looking at them."

Permalink

"Man. What do these people take their vacations from?"

Permalink

"Some of the details aren't clear to me but typically it comes down to seeking out excitement, variety and experiences not available in their normal life. Many people have mentioned that they enjoy being more athletic than they are capable of being outside of my world and others have said that it's a welcome break from drudgery, drama or ennui."

"It makes them more athletic?"
