So there's all sorts of people here, right? Got all kinds of crazy powers and stuff?

[Rufio is sitting in the center of town on the edge of the fountain, munching on an apple he's just nabbed out of the grocers. (The whole imaginary food thing wasn't working out for him so well out of Neverland.) He wishes the store was manned, in a way. There isn't much of a thrill pilfering food this way.]

Which ones of you don't age?

[Because he's realizing that in this place that list isn't going to include him.]

[thenightmarebegins]

Is that why you asked about aging? So that you could find a means to remain a child...?

[first_darkness]

Indeed we shall.

[lostpunk]

That's the scumbucket, alright.

[He's only somewhat insulted that Hook is a familiar name, but his isn't.]

[voice]

[lostpunk]

How do you have an air pirate? Do they steal air, or are they invisible?

[He snorts.] What's anyone do? Play.

[Voice]

[lostpunk]

I don't really remember.

[And he shrugs.]

[Voice]

[lostpunk]

I don't know yet.

[Getting a solid answer from others who've died is being a little more difficult than you'd think.]

[Voice]

[lostpunk]

Is it so hard to understand?

[lostpunk]

You don't need to try and be all creepy about everything.

[all7seas]

Captain James Hook. [Look at how much he both IS and is not believing this.] Has one hand that's a hook. Tall chap. Squiggly black hair. Oddly pointy mustache?

[deceases]

[ there's a pause.. but then he shrugs. ]

Dead people generally don't age anymore. Isn't that some law of nature?

[Voice]

[savedtheworld]

Did something happen to your memory? How do you know that they're... dead, if you don't remember?

[voice]

[campanella]

You know...I should have asked them! They probably did steal air!

[He knows well enough what keeps the air pirates in the air, but this is an opportunity for fun.]

Play? All the time? My, what a wonderful place! ♥ I wish I could play all the time, but duty calls and work has to be done. It must be exciting to be able to not have a care in the world.

[Voice]

[inkdrops]

Eh...maybe you're figure it out in a few years.

[lostpunk]

Are there any other Hooks? Of course that's him.

[ video ]

[lostpunk]

But what if they're brought back to life again?

Are you saying they wouldn't pick up where they left off?

[Voice]

[lostpunk]

Sometimes I remember. I just have to think about it for a while.

Neverland makes it real easy to forget things.

[voice]

[lostpunk]

That's why it's no good to grow up.

Don't know why anyone would look forward to it.

[ video ]

[deceases]

Regular dead people might. But if a dead person has been revived as a zombie, a vampire, a Shiki, no matter what kind of name you want to give it.. then they won't just pick up where they left off. Since they'll forever remain "dead" like that.

[Voice]

[lostpunk]

I don't want to wait until I've already grown up to realize it's happened.

[ video ]

[lostpunk]

So you're some undead thing, is what you're saying?

[ video ]

[deceases]

That's the short version, yes. I'm not the only one like that here though, as far as I've heard.

[voice]

[campanella]

Staying young forever does have advantages.

[Campanella means this on more than just for play. Why...it becomes so easy to have others see you as a child when you could be quite a bit older.]

Oh I know some adults that have their maturity as they say, but they grow weak and look forward to eventually losing their strength.

So sad! I suppose that is their loss though...not being gifted with youth. I understand why you would not wish to ever grow old. It will be a shame if this place took that away from you. Such a shame indeed.

[ video ]

[lostpunk]

You don't look like your skin's falling off or anything.

[Voice]

[savedtheworld]

[Aang hopes to switch to a less depressing topic.] Neverland? Is that where you're from?

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Wouldn't not aging count as a power too?
