[shess is still out and about at night, when most others are sleep. there's been a lot to digest, after meeting lune and sol, though that's not exactly why he's up.
nor is it likely why certain others are still up, as shess spots some familiar figures...]

[It's dark which means Val is more likely to be awake and active. He's not really the type of vampire that gets harmed during daylight hours, but he still has his personal preferences.
There was a lot to take in and most of it was sol doesn't know that much about what's going on.]

[When she spots the other two, Milla folds her arms over her chest, and tilts her head.]
Out walking this late at night? Not a common human habit.
[Oh!]
Unless you couldn't sleep? I find that affects more people than I would have thought. I'm told that warm milk is helpful.

[val, he expected to see. milla is a bit of a surprise, though.]
And what about you, Milla?

I'm not a human, I don't have any need for sleep.
[Plenty of need for sardines to eat though.]
[Plenty of need for sardines to eat though.]
Yes, as a spirit, I fall into the same category.
[please get a more varied diet, val.
shess tilts his head.]
How exactly does that work for you, Milla?

Hmm? Is that so odd? So do both of you. I wouldn't have guessed otherwise.
For myself, it simply works as it always has. This is merely a physical vessel for my spirit form, so I require neither rest nor sustenance. Although in truth, normally, I would be provided for by the spirits of the land... but it seems to be continuous here, nonetheless.
[murdergames, how do they work]
But if you are not human, then what are you two?

[...
shess smiles lightly as he holds his tablet underneath his arm, before pulling off his hood—revealing the horns on his head. then, he puts his hood back on and takes out his tablet]
I suspect neither of you has heard of sura.

You would be correct.
[At least for Val.
Anyway, he looks a bit confused at Milla.]
Do you often see humans with fangs where you're from?
I'm a demon vampire dragon.

[She looks between Shess and Val with a blank expression—in no way negative, simply... nonplussed. Curiosity, however, is blossoming quickly.]
I can't say I've heard of either a sura, or a demon-vampire-dragon. There are no fanged humans that I'm aware of, although all humans do have canines, as a part of their adult teeth...
I suppose it would be unlikely that either of you have heard of the Maxwell, then?

[val is still nothing like the dragons shess knows, so it's jarring to hear him call himself one.
at milla's question, he shakes his head.]

[He can't be dragon shaped right now, but it's what he really is.]
No, I haven't. It's not just your last name, is it?
No, I haven't. It's not just your last name, is it?
Correct. It is indicative of my position.
I am Maxwell, lord of the spirits.

[it's less the outside and more the inside. val is kind of squishy so far?]
Does that mean you're some sort of god?

[He's pretty humanoid looking.
Please don't look at his insides i've never had to question those before.
Val has the same question, so he just watches Milla for answers.]

I'm not sure that's such an apt descriptor, but I suppose it isn't inaccurate. The Maxwell is often called and revered as a deity, but I think that is more to do with their own point of view.
[like
from the point of view of a puny human who can't cast all four elements at once and summon the powers of multiple great spirits]
Does that sufficiently answer your question?

[I MEANT VAL IS MORE EMOTIVE AND FRIENDLY]
I suppose it does.
[honestly the important thing is that she's not a god. phew.]
It does sound as though we come from places with very different races. Humans seem to be the primary constant, and I imagine even they are not entirely the same across universes.
[given that he's lived long enough to see one version of humanity be wiped out and a second be created in their place.]

[No god, just spirits, demons and shura.]
Humanity is quite good at surviving as a species despite their short lifespans.
How long do the ones you know tend to live?

Humanity is resilient, willful, and determined. It's certainly part of why I'm so fond of them.
Mine? It depends on their health, societal situations, and so on, but I'd say to achieve more than ninety years of age is rare. Perhaps you could say a peacetime average is closer to seventy years?
[This seems like a nice and normal conversation to have in the middle of the night in the middle of this village]

[this is a perfectly reasonable conversation.]
For pureblood humans, it's roughly the same. Seventy to a hundred years.

[Listen nobody else is up to hear them. It's completely fine.]
Yes, some humans can live past a hundred. If they're rich and they have the money to keep themselves in good health along with paying for the best healthcare can provide. On average it's about 85.
It's drastically reduced during war.

Naturally. [to Val]
[And to Shess:] Pureblood?

Humans with some degree of sura blood age more slowly.
