writers love to portray immortal characters experiencing time differently as something sad or frightening but what they don’t seem to have realized is that the comedic potential is limitless and, in my humble opinion, extremely underutilized
TIRED:
mortal: this sword is some of my very best work. it took me two whole years to forge.
immortal: only two years? bah! the craftsmanship that went into my blade is the result of over a century of labor. that pathetic little butter knife you carry is but a cheap imitation of what true investment and skill can produce.
WIRED:
mortal: this sword is some of my very best work. it took me two whole years to forge.
immortal: you forged an ENTIRE SWORD in only TWO YEARS?!?!?! holy shit dude.
giving an immortal a year to complete a task is like setting them a five thousand word assignment with complete references and appendices due by the next morning
