Bones, bones, can't escape bones. Boil 'em, mash 'em, cook them to a stew. You're no different than we are. You guys use oil everywhere.

Why would bones warn of poison? ~~Most people don't put bone marrow in a stew.~~ Also weird move on slowing the decay. If you're sticking them in the ground, where you can't even see them, why do you want them not to decompose? You can't see them. You can't use them. They're just sitting there like six foot trash.

I do like a bone broth.

Because it's a real simple way to get the point across that whatever is in this bottle will make you dead. Probably started during a time when fewer people could read.

And that's not something we're taught in school but if I were to hazard a guess I'd say it has something to do with people being fucking weird about death. Don't like the idea of their loved ones rotting or something like that. IDK.

Bone broth. I cannot say I've ever had that. Bones were too important to eat.

Maybe it should mean "bone ash" or "bone chips" not death. You know, so it's true to the label. Who can't read???

See that's what I don't get. Why are people weird about death? You know what EVERYONE DOES across all the universes? Everyone? EEEEEEEeeeeeeveryone? They die. It's the most normal thing in the whole fucking world.

You're literally missing out on the best part of bones.

Uh. Most of society a couple hundred years ago, I'd guess. Man, I gotta find you a film that shows off what humanity used to be like on Earth. It would blow your mind.

When in doubt, blame religion. There's some back home that really nail in the fear of death starting young. "Do bad and God will send you to Hell when you die to be tortured for infinity." Doesn't exactly encourage anyone to get comfortable with the concept when everything is a sin.

Staying alive > bone broth. Alas the prices we pay.

Everyone's been literate in the Nine Houses for the last ten thousand years. So you know, weeeeeeeeeeeird that. It's like someone not knowing how to tie their shoelaces, y'know? Perspective-wise.

Oh. Hell. People think that literally? That is so fucking weiiiiiird. Sure I've told my dad to go to hell, but it's not like hell really exists. It's just a thing you say. Where I'm from, everyone's souls go to the River when they die. That isn't even a faith thing. I've been in the River. 0/10 do not recommend.

Not here!!

Listen, Earth is kind of fucked. Rich people get all the opportunities, poor people just hope they make enough money to buy food to feed their kids. It's been fucked for a long time but it's better than it used to be so. I don't know what to tell you there.

No one knows for sure what happens when someone dies back home. It's just... You know, no proof of anything. The river sounds shitty, though, and a good way to make people afraid of death.

I literally gets bones from Senku to give to Harrow.

Sounds shitty. I'll pass. I couldn't imagine losing the ability to read my magazines. I'm not just into it for the pictures. There's stories, y'know?

Guess that's something about the dead not coming back to visit and lack of necromancy. Death's nothing more than a slammed door. I can't say the River is the best, but it's not something worth being afraid of death over.

Wait. To power Harrow? Or for her to eat? Does she eat bones?

Yeah, I'm sure it is shitty, that's why they've implemented free schooling and shit. Not everyone can be as advanced as the Ninth.

Listen, plenty of people are afraid of the slammed door. Fear of death is human. No one wants the end to happen and most people don't think it'll ever come to them.

Why would a necromancer eat bones? Munch munch destroy that good storage space? They're for her to do necromancy with. There aren't exactly loads of bones lying around this place, and these are free ones no one needs. Might not be human, but you take what you can get.

Hahahahhahahahaahha. Oh my god let me breath, ahahahahahhahahaaa. Sorry, need to, not everyone can be as advanced as the Ninth. I'm dying. Sharon, you've killed me. I'm dead. You finally did it. You finished me off. *wheezes*

Fear of dying makes sense. It can be real shitty. Fear of dying young or whatever, sure. But death is death, and from what I've seen, living forever is a lot shittier. (And why do people think it won't come to them? It comes to everyone. Everyfuckingone.

Wasn't thinking, idk. Have you guys ever thought about ordering a couple of medical corpses? Or is that a no-no in Folkmore?

GIDEON! EARTH HASN'T FIGURED OUT HOW TO FEED ALL ITS PEOPLE IN MY TIME! NO SPACE TRAVEL! NO HUMANS IN SPACE! NOT ALL OUR PEOPLE CAN FUCKING READ! Come on! Your spooky space compound is more advanced IN SOME WAYS than my shitty planet. And if this is how I kill you, you are weak!

Because they're young. Because they're fools. Because they don't think about death and don't care to consider the possibility. Lots of reasons, Gideon. Not everyone is a death weirdo.

"Not everyone is a death weirdo." If I got five Lore every time someone said that to me, I wouldn't have a lot, but it'd still be kinda fucked up of them.

I mean, sure, we could buy corpses. Harrow may have for her research, but it's kinda weird and impersonal feeling. 1-800-COR-PSES. Sure, we could always have Palamedes read the corpse, get something of a life story—

Unless it didn't have a life story? It just was a corpse? Appearing as a corpse? Always a corpse? Evercorpse? Fuck that'd be weiiiiiiiiiiiiird.

Uuuuuugh that sounds like the stone age. Food distribution isn't that hard if you can make enough food. You have a whole ass planet. You have to have enough food. How hard is it to give people food? It doesn't have to be tasty (snow leeks aren't). Just. Food. And reading. I don't get how you don't do that one. Don't people need to read? ??? Hey now, I said you killed me. I didn't say I stayed dead.

At least it pays.

A dead body is a dead body is a dead body, G.

My planet has issues and the people that have the power to change things do not want to. Just the awful, shitty way it is.

It does at that.

Sure, I don't know which skeleton farmer is which member of the Ninth House, but you treat them properly with respect. That's a thing, S.

Well fuck those people. Make them do it.

I'm not saying go out and disrespect corpses but they're still corpses. They've become no one.

Easier said than done. When people try, it gets nasty and people get scared to try again. Earth sucks, Gideon. It's not much better in other universes, either.

Sure, but I've given Harrow a long list of what she is and isn't allowed to do with my corpse/bones. Because I am not becoming a scrub brush. Or a farmer. These are a grade best of the best bones.

Thanks, I hate it.

What does one do with the best bones?

I never really had much time to hate it back home but... Yeah, me too.

You make a construct with regenerating ash that can kick a lot of ass and maintains all my knowledge of swordfighting so it can work independently of Harrow's skimpy sword knowledge.

You can hate it now. It's never too late.

That sounds so much cooler than just cremation.

I'm now an active hater, Gideon.

Right? I'm gonna be the coolest construct ever. Take that all ye "my bones get to live at the Mithraeum" shits. All you got to do was witness the dumbest drama over ten thousand years.

Good job, Sharon. Hate away.

Hey, some people wanna live at the... Mithraeum, whatever the fuck that means, and others wanna be a construct post-mortem. Don't judge.

I am a hater and I am drinking that haterade.

As someone who has spent time on the Mithraeum—literally it's usually god and the saints only because it'd literally kill anyone else to travel there—I can judge a little bit. Ugh, I guess some of them were doing some warding. But it's got a stupid amount of decoration-only bones. A waste.

Maybe you should jump your boyfriend while on that hater energy. Hatesex without the hate for your boy.

Not everyone wants to be useful.

...does hate normally make you want to fuck or am I the odd one here? [ Because it makes her want to vomit lava. She can do angry sex, it's better than some of her other outlets, but hate is something else. ]

Okay, but like your bones doing shit after you die is like... the normal ass most normal thing everyone expects where I'm from. Like, IDK, kids going to school or whatever.

Harrow isn't super into touch, so I'm pretty much always horny, Sharon. But plenty of people do hatesex. It's a whole trope.

So they're rebels. Love that for those bones. [ Now she's just being a brat. :3 ]

You can fix that for yourself, you know. And the people into hatesex do not know what real hate is.

If they're so fucking in love with the whole damn system that they want their bones to rest in the presence of god and his saints, then they can fucking earn it. Sweep up the herald corpses. Perform system maintenance. Something. Not sit on their lazy laurels like they're so fucking special. [ Why no, Gideon doesn't have any unresolved issues here. ]

Ha, trust me, I know. I get a good wank on whenever I want to bone. [ Get it? Bone? ] Hate isn't a single flavor emotion. There's a wide array, and one doesn't negate others. Shit, mate, have you ever seen what thousands and thousands of years of hate looks like between people? So fucking awkward to be in its presence.
