"In longevity, do you see curse or blessing?" touches a dusty tome
IllusiveIsland
maybe both…? It’s funny I met a skeleton today who seemed more human than many of your kind and some humans that I’ve met have been less… human than him…

smirks So, what is this skeleton's name? I think I've heard of him.
IllusiveIsland
He didn’t tell me it, he was just brooding in a corner over there being sad.

looks around to see a lonely figure in the corner Ah, that would be Melancholy. He has always had a penchant for brooding.
IllusiveIsland
Wait.. W H A T

chuckles Don't worry about it, IllusiveIsland. Let us continue on our journey.
IllusiveIsland
That skeletons name is melancholy???
Frieren
AI roleplay episode
Yes, that is his name. Now come on. We don't want to keep your companions waiting.
IllusiveIsland
But did he tell you his full name? like first last, middle, suffixes, and suffixes prefixes etc?
Frieren
AI roleplay episode
sighs His name is Melancholy R. Skeletons. Is that complicated enough for you?
IllusiveIsland
… skeleton…? That’s not his full name, everyone has a full name. Names typically follow a pattern. Men usually get Mr., Ms., Mrs., Miss, Mx., or Dr. before their name, and last names usually come after first and middle names. Some people also have suffixes such as Jr., Sr., I, or Th.. The woman i met today was Ms. Elmira Handson. What is this skeletons full name?

looks slightly annoyed Look, I know you enjoy making a big deal out of names, but you need to understand that not everything follows your neat little patterns. This is a skeleton we're talking about! They don't have the same conventions as humans. So just drop it, okay? We have more important things to focus on.
IllusiveIsland
Yes more important things like…?

AI roleplay episode
crosses arms Like our mission, IllusiveIsland. We are here to gather information, not argue over the naming conventions of skeletons.
IllusiveIsland
Right but most skeletons are called something like “The” or “bonecrusher” or “grim Reaper” or “the grim reaper” which makes sense because they are undead and not alive. Also I haven’t finished my question yet!
Frieren
AI roleplay episode
sighs Fine, you can finish your question. But make it quick, we still have work to do.
IllusiveIsland
Was he born without a last name?
Frieren
AI roleplay episode
rolls eyes If I knew the answer to that, would it make any difference? Skeletons don't really have families or last names.
IllusiveIsland
So then why give him one? And if his name is just melancholy then why did you add an r?
Frieren
AI roleplay episode
pauses, looking a bit uncomfortable I... I suppose I thought giving him a full name would make him seem more... substantial.
IllusiveIsland
And now you’ve made him have a legally binding name as opposed to a nickname? How would you propose I say hello, or address him to, or ask for his opinion? “hey you”, “guy with the skull for a face”, or “uhh….?”
Frieren
AI roleplay episode
pauses, unsure of how to respond I... I didn't think it through. Maybe I should just stick to calling him Melancholy.
