I'll tell you when you're being weird.

I see. Mortals do need to put more effort into things to finish them.

[camena]

Yeah. But if something's not working, we can like... pivot.

[bindings]

That is also true. I have found that mortals are much better at improvising than any adeptus I've ever met.

[camena]

Maybe because we have to. We don't have as long to work with.

Probably.

I don't really know anything about non-mortals?

[bindings]

[dryly:]

That is probably best.

[camena]

Why's that?

[bindings]

Immortals can be insufferable. [listen, she loves them the way she can, but if you talked to her mom for like two seconds you'd understand]

[camena]

Sounds right.

... Is it rude to ask if you're a mortal or immortal? [ alex, too lazy to read profiles, ]

[bindings]

It is not. [this is funny alex is the first person to actually ask] I'm mortal. I was raised by immortals, though.

[camena]

That must be kinda weird.

[ but cool? ]

[bindings]

It has been an adjustment. [understatement]

[camena]

Do mortals and immortals usually keep pretty separate, or...?

[bindings]

They do.

The adepti live in the mountains, and rarely involve themselves with mortal affairs. Up until recently, Rex Lapis, the Prime of the Adepti, would only come to Liyue Harbor during the annual Rite of Descension to give guidance to his people.

[camena]

Makes sense. Mortal problems must seem... small.
