wejMah wej - Kahless the Unforgettable

[general_chang]

[Kahless is facing the camera in an imperious manner and peering out at you. It's clear that he does not know where he is and this fact does not please him.] Where am I? And what is this... creature? [He points the camera down at K'Nera who is not amused with this turn of events. He turns the camera back to him.]

Speak and Kahless will hear you.

[Well what in the blight is this creature? Some kind of dark spawn? Perhaps a Kunari? But where are the horns?]

Pardon, but you wouldn't happen to be some kind of hornless kunari, would you?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

[Ew... Disgust is plain on Kahless' face when he sees this... half made creature.] I am Klingon. What are you?

[wardennolonger.livejournal.com]

I wish I could tell you I had any idea what that's supposed to be. I'm a human-- do they not have those where you come from? I thought we were a fairly common species all over.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Human... common, indeed. You are malformed.

[wardennolonger.livejournal.com]

Not the nicest thing to say to someone you've just met, is it?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

[Snort.] If your feelings are so delicate you cannot the truth perhaps you should find a nice woman to nurse you back to strength.

[wardennolonger.livejournal.com]

I've suffered worse insults, my feelings are just fine.

[a short pause,]

Though I wouldn't turn down the company of a woman. Or a man, for that matter. Any company at all, really.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Then why mention them? [You're just plan weird.] It does not hold my interest. [He's got a wife, even if you weren't freakishly smooth.]

[wardennolonger.livejournal.com]

I was just making conversation; is that such a crime?

And who in there right mind would turn away pleasant company? You're certainly a strange creature.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

[Shrug.] Pointless.

No, merely married.

[wardennolonger.livejournal.com]

If you think it is so pointless why bother continuing to speak with me?

Oh, bound by the ol' ball and chain, hm?

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Curiosity. But I do not fuss over 'protocol'.

She has won my heart.

I'm not sorry :P

[wardennolonger.livejournal.com]

So what you're saying is that I make you curious? Wouldn't be the first time I've heard that, to be honest.

[truth_is_cold]

It's a Jaguar. A Panther.

I thought those to be extinct.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

[Kahless looks down at it and as if realising it for the first time:] They are not! [He laughs.]

[truth_is_cold]

Is it real?

[And a laugh, too. Magnificent. It survived somewhere despite all the odds.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Yes, she is. [Kahless smiles.]

[truth_is_cold]

If I'm to hallucinate at the hands of a kidnapper at least it's not lacking extraordinary creatures.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

It is good way to think of it, though I do not believe this is a hallucination. I consumed nothing to explain this.

[truth_is_cold]

The technology in this room feels real enough. [He can admit something's impressive.] Though I've not found enough to cobble together a long range communicator. [If only he knew how out of range he was.]

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

[Kahless humphs.] I do not recognise the local species, I doubt my people will be close enough to help.

[truth_is_cold]

Humans. [He says it matter of factly.] I've not seen them outside of Fountainhead before, and those there will be soon be extinct.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

Yes. I have been told. But without context, it is merely a name and I have no context.

They are dying? [Interesting.]

[truth_is_cold]

They're choosing to become die out, stepping back into the shadows so that my kind will advance. They came to our world willingly to create us, with the best parts of themselves.

These humans may not be the ones of my world, but I am aware of them.

[general-chang.livejournal.com]

I have never heard of a race choosing to become extinct. [It makes him think.]
