Shulk (Xenoblade Chronicles)/Alvis (Xenoblade Chronicles)

Shulk (Xenoblade Chronicles), Alvis (Xenoblade Chronicles)

Humanity, Agency, Identity Issues, Double Drabble and a Half, Plus Six

A hollow whistle sounds - causal, or casual?

"uuuuuu rose your word pictures" what about roan my friend roan. anyway i thought this was funny


Alvis is so very old. Ancient.

Shulk is so very young. Infinitely so.

And Shulk imagines normal, with Alvis.

And Alvis imagines spiritual, with Shulk.

?How does one date an administrative computer

But if Alvis isn't a Homs,

or he is,

and if Shulk is a Homs,

or he isn't,

then what does it matter?

Do you want to say: pointless?

Did you mean: meaningless?

(.Very helpful suggestions - I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it, says Alvis, says the arbitration dreamer, says the meatsack with no meat)

Here's the secret, which Alvis has never even tried to keep (he doesn't keep secrets, does he, he just flits about and thinks, well, you never asked, because Alvis is a computer, and he requires very specific instructions, except from Shulk, whose intent he is dead afraid of osmosing and assuming but whose intent he does, quite often, simply know (no he doesn't)):

It doesn't. It doesn't matter at all. Especially since a certain someone regaling himself in fooliar's gold is quite intent on stealing everyone's bones, all the time, and not in a fun way (what's fun? alvis thinks being with shulk is fun, if you asked him to define it, because how else is he to say ?) .

But to everyone who builds their houses and envisions their futures upon it, this idea of being a being, it matters a very very much.

If Alvis asked for Shulk's humerus, Shulk wouldn't exactly just...give it to him.

Could Shulk tell Alvis a joke?
