“It’s weird.”

“What’s weird ?“

“Humans have a closer relationship with the dead than they do with the living.”

“Elaborate on that.”

“Well did you ever notice how they honour their deceased?

“…”

“ They decorate the remains of the being and then put it in a wooden box. That wooden box they then proceed to put in a small stone monument with some identification of the human. Sometimes they burn them instead. It varies from culture to culture. After that they repeatedly visit the remains and … how should I vocalise that… relive the memories they shared with that being ?“

“ But doesn’t that destroy the natural cycle of returning minerals into the soil ?“

“ It does. It also damages their emotional sensors yet they still do it.

“ Huh.“

“ But it’s not just about the weird boxing ritual. It’s about the process altogether. Humans give much more value to death than they do to life.”

“Can you give an example ?“

“Plenty. Their soldiers, their authors. Even their friends. While alive they do indeed get acknowledged. But when they die that acknowledgment doubles, even triples in size. It seems humans are blind to most of their possessions and are only able to see them after their loss.

“ That is quite bizarre. But if I can give you a word of advice - do not get too close to human psychology. A lot of minds were lost that way. “

“ …..I will accost your concern.”

Do you ever realize that a hundred years or more from now , there will probably be a remake of your favorite show, new films based on the same stuff and new fan fiction that you are never going to see ? It’s rather sad.

Imagine Sherlock watching Death Note .

So much comments probably

- what is this ….

- well I guess if you can actually be clever you can kill

- HOW DOES NO ONE NOTICE ?!

- Finally .

- well obviously he’s a student

- THIS IS BS! HES CORRECT WHY DONT YOU BELIEVE HIM?!

- he would have won . Supernatural doesn’t count . It wasn’t a fair game .

- ARE YOU SERIOUS? HE IS LITERALLY IN FRONT OF YOU EVERY DAY AND YOU FAIL TO CATCH HIM ?

…..

So you ever just notice that

„Finesse „

Is just one letter away from

„Fine~ass „

The “ complicated “ones are the most simple to understand once you crack them . They are complicated in the way everything is, with traits, fears, trauma, history . Yet once you crack them it is pretty easy to see where everything is coming from .

It’s the “ simple “ ones that break you head. Because from the outside they are nothing but a clear, allowing you to perceive them as something simple. Yet when you get to know them, their thoughts and motives turn out to be more twisted and weird than the “ complicated” ones. Their world looks out of place, messed up. But how if they seemed so simple ?

I feel like this is both about people , characters and lego.

Merlin in Hogwarts

No , but can you imagine- the one and only , almighty wizard , known for centuries as a legend , so famous his name is used as an exclamation yet so old the truth about him actually being alive is forgotten . Shows up at Hogwarts.

Because if you are an almighty immortal wizard , waiting for some *cough- pratish cough cough king to return , you would absolutely do weird and crazy pranks on everybody .

I can just imagine a young boy , seemingly out of nowhere arriving at Hogwarts . And of course Hogwarts is very organized and they should know where he came from , but hey , he has everything ready for studying and they just don’t have the time to check every student , so he just begins his studying with a wide grin . Sure something seems off , but the teachers just hope it’s nothing Voldemort-big and go on . But time passes and teachers do notice some weird stuff. Like the fact that after his arrival dragons come flying near Hogwarts which were not seen for centuries and the monsters in the lake stir more than usual . And that this small boys wand looks more like a miniaturized staff and the fact that he was seen casting spells no one has ever heard , but hey , who are they to judge .

And Merlin enjoys it so much . He was so caught up in all the history and mourning that he forgot how great it felt to be young and have friends . Though it is confusing for him when there are lots of “ oh Merlin “ or “ Merlins beard !“ exclamations going on .

And heck yeah he pranks everyone and tells them he is the real Merlin and he’s almighty , but everyone just takes it as a joke and laughs . So he pranks teachers and casts spells that mess up Hogwarts and all but everyone just adores him and thinks he’s cute.

Until one time something comes up and they realize : oh shit . He is the real Merlin

What do you think , if some people gathered together today and avoided corona for ten or more days while living somewhere off and telling stories to each other ( aka, Dekameron , Giovanni Boccaccio style ) what the hell would they talk / tell stories about ?

„ Sir „ The alien asked his commander

„ Why are humans considered one of the most dangerous species ?

They do not posses any special powers ,

They are dependent on so many factors to live

They are fleeing , their lifespan isn’t more than 2 centuries ? “

The commander stayed still . After a long pause , in which the alien soldier already admitted defeat he spoke :

“ Because they learn not to fear death.

Not all of them . But some.

They overcome the biggest unknown the universe offers . They simply conquer it . They risk their life’s for war , for emotions , sometimes even for fun. Fully aware that their one chance is so insignificant . Fully aware they might not live to even a century .”

The commander turned towards the soldier .

“ No other species has ever learned that. Even our race , that lives for millions of years , shivers and screams as the dark void that consumes everything comes to get us.

Humans are terrifying because they play with that void on a daily basis. Some of them even long for it.

Can you imagine , soldier ?

A human could live for only 20 solar circles and long for the unknown void . How could it feel so much in such short time span ? How could it look the horror that the unknown brings and reach out for it ?”

The aliens eyes widened, and he stepped back

“ Everybody fears the void . It’s impossible not too” He didn’t fully believe his commander . Yet he couldn’t deny the insanity with which humanity moved forward .

The commander made a sound that was considered a chuckle in their race .

“ Say that to the next human you meet and watch, how they defy that in every way .”
