Y'see, that's the difference between stories and reality; stories end. But life... life just keeps on'a goin'.

Story ain't a story if it don't end. But when somethin' real, somethin' genuine ends... then it, too, becomes a story.

The line can become thin. But, is that so bad...?

For the first time, for the tenth time, or the hundredth time... don't make a difference. It was important enough to ya that you saw it through... all the way to th' end.

... Hmm.

Well, I like a bit of room for artistic interpretation, but this seems a touch too unnecessary...

Wahaha-! Real or not, that might hard to say. Reality's only what we make of it, ain't it...? And, well, I can fer sure see this place, and smell it, hear it... and feel it.

... Unless ya mean to tell me that this place AIN'T makin' yer socks feel soggy, cuz it's certainly havin' that effect on me.

// i know gerson just not using the crystal at all is the popular interpretation but i really like the idea of him BEING tempted by the crystal's vision but just... being able to move on from it. What good could come from obsessing over it?

Geheh. Well, if missin' out is yer issue, then I guess I can share what I saw in that ol' thing.

All I saw... was a small hammer. Locked in a lil' glass case.

... Wahaha-!! Borin', ain't it? I bet'cha maybe I could'a seen more in it, if I kept it fer longer... but I think my 'magination's better.

Actually, scratch that-- what is it you WANNA see?

Geheheh! Sure as shuck, I did.

Was a beautiful thing, it was... never seen anythin' like it. But, what's a vision from a little shard'a glass gonna do fer ya?

The stuff on th' outside of the crystal... th' thing it can't show you: everything that's around you. I'd say that matters MUCH more!

Weird lil' baubles. Didn't get much use outta the thing.

Forget the answer, what's your AFTER lookin' like?

🖋️ I'm Old! @buriedhammer.bsky.social · Aug 6

Hmph. Ya'd think some folks 're so *obsessed* with findin' out whatever truth it is they're after... that they end up losin' sight of whatever it was they needed that truth for.

Well, nothin' wrong with a little fairy tale, is there? Real or not... they can still make folks feel real feelin's fer a reason.

... Not everythin's so easily understood, even when ya get an eyeful of it... if ya see it fer yerself, and it still don't make sense, what're ya gonna do then?

🖋️ I'm Old! @buriedhammer.bsky.social · Aug 5

Mhm. S'ppose I could'a. I s'ppose I ALSO could'a just told'ja t' aim yer kame-hame-healin' blast into that Jack-o-buddy's mouth too, eh?

... Wouldn't have made for such a good story, though, would it? Ge-heehah!

🖋️ I'm Old! @buriedhammer.bsky.social · Aug 5

Dark and darker, eh? Well, if it ain't from some book, then... someone oughta write that!! Could be a good one, eheheh.

Mmm. Seems like there's more t' learn, though, eh? Do ya reckon if there's anyone else who knows this TV lady, who could help explain these things a lil'...?

🖋️ I'm Old! @buriedhammer.bsky.social · Aug 5

Tha's th' spirit!

... Frankly, I wouldn't'a blamed ya if said ya felt otherwise. If I was YOU, I'd'a been sayin: "You crazy ol' dustbin, why didn't ya tell me you was DEAD?!" Geheh!

Thank you, though, fer... fer the letter. Means more t' me than what I can put into words.

Well... it might have somethin' to do with th' fact that I'm a nosey, bored ol' coot! Ge-hah!

Hmm. Walkin', talkin' televsion... now, *that* sounds kooky. I don' know a whole lot 'bout this new generation of electro-tronics, but I don't think TV's are s'pposed to do that. How's that work, anyhow?
