Heh, looks like a pretty crazy day today, doesn't it?

[The guy in the video, if any of you happen to recognize him, seems sort of different today. Taller, for one. Maybe a deeper voice? Whatever the difference is, his smile is the same as ever, and he grins cheerfully at the camera.]

You guys shouldn't let curses get you down though! Whether you're suddenly bigger or smaller or feathered or lost or a brand new parent, you should face it head on and smile. It might even be fun!

[He glances away from the screen after that last comment, as if some sudden thought had caught him by surprise.]

Come to think of it, I should probably go out and do something too.

[[Elmer's aged-up today! By quite a lot. Replies will be coming from unfrowning!]]

Oh, this city's timeline, huh? Hmm...

[Oh wait another question!]

I'm from the year 2002! Isn't it amazing how fast time goes by?

[ yeah, okay, that makes perfect se— ]

[errandry]

[ what. ]

[errandry]

What, like three hundred years of time?

[unfrowning]

That sounds about right, yeah.

Vampire, zombie—Highlander??

[unfrowning]

Ahahahaha it'd be really interesting if I was Highlander! That's pretty close though actually, now that I think about it.

[errandry]

As long as you're not after anybody's blood or brains! ... so what is it?

[unfrowning]

I'm immortal!

[errandry]

Just in general?

[unfrowning]

Pretty much. Haha, is that disappointing?

[errandry]

Nah, that's not it. Just figured immortals had to be different kinds!

[unfrowning]

Ah, right. Well, I'm the kind that lives forever and can't be killed! Except by other immortals of course. So in other words, I'm now a permanent unchanging fixture on Earth. Like a crocodile! Did you know crocodiles haven't changed at all since the time of the dinosaurs? It's amazing!
