Sass's new status message - i wish i was an elf 9:16 AM
me: i am just as confused by that one...
Sent at 9:16 AM on Friday
Sass: haha keeping you on your toes
me: lol why do you wish you were an elf?
Sass: elfs have senses much greater than that of humans
they are also much better swordsmen
me: that is true.
Sass: even the adolescents could battle with the strongest humans
They all can also use magic
me: although i am a formidable opponent when it comes to the art of swordfighting
Sass: or at least the ancient language
me: you're weird. and i love it.
Sass: And they live for much longer than humans
me: that part i'm not sure i would dig although if i lived in an elven land it would be alright i suppose
Sass: Yeah, you would have lots of elf friends to live long time with you and the humans wouldn't understand you and if they did they would just be in awe of you becuase elves > Humans
However in between that is a dwarf
dwarfs are like rocks
me: It would suck to be a dwarf I think
Sass: they are short and stocky and live around the same amount of time as elves
me: they don't have any magical powers, though.
and are they even good swordsmen?
i think they got nothin' basically
Sass: They have the power in numbers and just toughness
They are bad asses that no one wants to fuck withand plus some dwarfs can have dragons and dragons bring in a whole new element
me: how can a dwarf have a dragon? that doesn't make any sense!
Sass: the same way an elf can or a human
me: but dragons are huge how could a dwarf utilize that?!
Sass: Yeah, the dwarf would walk/run up it's tail to ride it and kick ass from the sky
me: I don't like it.
Sass: haha
me: I am opposed to dwarves. And not just because they are portly.
Sass: Well they are just as much a part of my "kingdom" as elves and humans
The dragon chooses it's rider from inside it's egg so it could choose an elf or a dwarf or a human but elves > all imo so
I wish I was an elf
me: Well that's dumb. They suck. I mean, having a dog that can kick someone's ass is way less cool than being able to kick someone's ass yourself
me: that's fair.
i think you maybe ought to wish you were a dragon when it comes down to it
Sass: Well if dragons are smart and can act on there own
me: can't they? they obviously have the ability to rationalize if they pick their own rider
Sass: I think I would still prefer an elf
Yeah, this is true....they are pretty inteligent creatures
and I've always wanted to be an eagle
me: an eagle? what kind?
Sass: in real life
a bald eagle
like when i was little
me: aren't they endangered? that seems risky
Sass: i imagined being a bald eagle
Yeah, but I was like 8
me: and how did it go? did you just fly around? do they do much else?
Sass: I would fly around and sit on branches looking very stoic
then I would swoop down and catch a fish out of a lake
me: Hmmm.... that does sound fun.
Sass: just to prove that I could
me: much more leisurely than being an elf
Sass: I would fly around and get my picture taken by tourist and maybe even catch a rabbit
Yeah, but not as intellegent
which is why my dream of becoming an eagle died and in its place an elf was born
