Small fish. Big Pond. Big, more advanced and educated pond. Small uneducated backwards country bumpkin fish.

I guess I should have finished school.

Not that it would have done me any good. I mean sure I'll know all about the history of my world and could recite my ancestry backwards and forwards. But I still wouldn't know a damn thing about cells. Or electricity. Or algebra. Science in general. Computers. How to drive a car. Illnesses- diseases- Gravity. TV.

I can shoe a horse. Fix a wagon wheel. I know how to use a crossbow and long bow. Not a gun. If pressed I could make a decent sword. I can hunt game. Skin a deer. I can even fight with a sword. In a combat situation.

I know which plants are poisonous and which'll give you the runs and other's that'll help with a wound. At least at home. Don't know a damn about chemistry.

Long words make me run to the dictionary. Which I have enough problems using cause I have problems reading.

Apparently not being exposed to something makes you ignorant.


It's not my fault my world hasn't moved past the fucking iron age!



It's not like I can wave a wand or something and make it happen. I'm not a god. Despite my powers, I'm not a god.

I don't want to be a god.

I just want to understand stuff.

I like understanding stuff. I like knowing stuff. I don't like feeling stupid. But then again, who does?

Nah. Someone who looks as good as you would prolly be sold into slavery as a sex slave. *grins a bit*

Sorry. Prolly not what you wanted to hear.

And some how I can't see some of those folks in my world. They'd act like they were among savages and expect us to be awed by them.

But I guess you were trying to say that just cause I don't know squat about your world doesn't mean I don't know something useful.
