DE: It's a kind of magic

From [personal profile] electro_kinetic :
So, Milliways is a pretty technologically advanced place if you don't go for the magic explanation. How does your pup try to explain the wonders of The Bar to people who're pre-Industrial Revolution? Conversely, if your pup *is* pre-Industrial Revolution, how do they accept Milliways' 'magic by another name'?

Oh Javert, his idea makes a lot of sense but I kind of want to pat him on the head and then run away as he'd hate that.

Also Charles in my head was thinking that group therapy with Javert and Bruce could be interesting. I think that would be tough on your brain but it was one of my thoughts after reading the OOM.

*caclesnort* I can imagine his face if someone patted him on the head. PURE GOLD. :D

And that is actually a very interesting idea. I'm intrigued by it, and how it would go. Bruce would probably be open to the idea, given the conversation in the OOM. And Javert...well, he's easy to take advantage of, at the moment, so I worry a bit about that. He's sort of just letting things happen to him, and will accept anything he wouldn't normally, as punishment. But if it happened informally, or it was explained to him first, then he'd probably...still just shrug, and say 'do as you will to me'. So, I dunno. Let me think on it?
