You've reached Sally Timms. So, probably the wrong number.

It was the 1800s. Humans were full of prejudice.

[The feral lets out a low growl at the memory. That's one of the wounds his healing factor won't work on.]

We ran away with my brother Logan. They call him Wolverine now.

[There's an awful lot to unpack in such a short amount of words. But above all else, one thing stands out. 1800s.]

You're from the 1800s? I had no idea.

[He seems so...modern. Maybe he adapted in Duplicity?]

Yeah. I look so young, huh?

[A joke to lighten the mood a little.]

Been around for nearly 211 years. Seen a lot of good and bad things in the world.

I've done my best to learn the ways of modern life. But you won't see me using a computer any time soon. [He chuckles.]

Was supposed to get lessons from someone here but she decided not to bother with my feral charm anymore. But I don't mind it that much anymore... [He nuzzles into her hair.]

[200 years. Sally can't help it, she stiffens slightly, but at least isn't pulling away.]

You're, um...you're immortal?
cagedwithin: (confused)

The healing factor and my mutation slow down aging. Most of us mutants live longer than normal, but we ferals even longer. Not always a good thing, if I'm honest... Outliving those we love.

[Her reaction isn't unexpected and he really doesn't blame her.]

Oh, so it's more like you're just...super long lived.

[Like, really incredibly long lived. It relaxes her a little, knowing that it's just a natural part of what she is, but given her reaction in general feels like she should clarify:]

I only asked because, erm, I've had some past trouble with immortals. Not that I'd think you'd cause me trouble or anything. It's just...it's still kind of a fear.
cagedwithin: (puppy face)

That's a better term for it. Lived through a lot.

[He nods at her clarification. It's good to know something more about her past and her experiences.]

I understand. I have that with humans... Because of past trouble.

If you ever want to talk about it, I'll be willing to listen.
