Oh! No, it's real, too. You can get wished back to life by Shenlong, but it only works once.

[fluffydeathdealer]

...

Your world is really weird.

[inheritedburden]

Yours is just as weird to me!

Besides, that's the only "magic" we have in mine, wishing on the Dragon Balls.

[fluffydeathdealer]

You wish on... a dragon's balls?

...

I guess I've heard of weirder shit.

[inheritedburden]

Not a dragon's balls, the Dragon Balls. You find them, put them together, call out Shenlong, and then tell him your wish. If it's something he can do, then he'll grant it.

[fluffydeathdealer]

...still sounds pretty weird.

[Giving a dragon back his balls in exchange for a wish... huh.]

Anyway, my world is pretty ordinary.

[inheritedburden]

Dunno... having ghosts that possess people and not knowing what ki is sounds pretty weird to me!

[fluffydeathdealer]

It's only natural. Ki doesn't exist in my world. And there's only two ghosts.

[inheritedburden]

Well, that's not natural to me, so I wouldn't call it ordinary!

[He sticks his tongue out again, but it's playful this time.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

But your world isn't ordinary either, since it's so different from mine... heheh.

We'll just have to agree that neither world is ordinary.

[inheritedburden]

Works for me. We both live in weird places as far as anyone else knows!

[fluffydeathdealer]

Anyway, since you're helping me out, I'll fill you in on anything you're curious about regarding my world.

[inheritedburden]

Whatever you want to talk about, I wanna hear about. I don't really care what it is!

...well, unless it's boring average stuff that's anywhere, like working.

[fluffydeathdealer]

What kind of loser do you think I am?

[inheritedburden]

Dunno! I don't know anything about your world, remember?

[fluffydeathdealer]

The correct answer is "None".

[Deadpan.]

Anyway, I'm not going to just ramble at random.

[inheritedburden]

Okay, then...

Tell me about how fighting works. You don't know about ki, so do you guys do martial arts at all? Or do you just use weapons?

[fluffydeathdealer]

Fighting's frowned upon. People can learn martial arts for fun or self-defence, but they tend to leave fighting to the police.

There are weapons, but using them is considered very bad, and killing or harming another person will get you imprisoned. If you're caught, anyway.

[He sounds amused.]

[inheritedburden]

I guess there's not many strong people in your world, if the police can handle it?

[He sounds incredulous, like Bakura just told him wars were solved by kittens.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

Of course there aren't. I just told you that ki wasn't a thing there. Most people can't do worse than bruise each other without weapons. And weapons can be duplicated.

Apart from exceptions like me, there's very little the police can't handle.

[inheritedburden]

Wow... I guess it's really quiet there, then.

[Sorry, he's just having trouble processing it, considering the world he's from has been blown up at least once now.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

You could say that. Most people live their entire lives without experiencing the slightest threat.

[inheritedburden]

That's... well, pretty cool for them, I guess. I think it'd be way too weird for me, though...

Are there not even any martial arts tournaments?

[fluffydeathdealer]

Nothing major. There's a few rare ones you see on movies and you can visit small ones every so often, but martial arts isn't really that common a thing.

[Now card games, on the other hand...]

[inheritedburden]

Wow... so what do you guys do for fun?
