War of the Worlds? True story.

Comments

Really?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Really. Though it wasn't Martians. Or Earth. Though there was an alien invasion carried out during the Welles broadcast, but those weren't quite the same sort of invaders.

[notladyofwater.livejournal.com]

Well, I know there are certainly other worlds.

I guess another world was invaded?

[technicalgenius.livejournal.com]

All of it?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

No story is entirely true, fiction or not.

[technicalgenius.livejournal.com]

Doesn't that depend on the person telling it?

[kailin-tyree.livejournal.com]

This human story would have applied to my own race a few years ago.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Your race's home planet was invaded and your species turned to dinner snacks for aliens with tripod-esque military machines, only for those invaders to be wiped out by a rather convenient terrestrial pathogen? Nice!

[kailin-tyree.livejournal.com]

That is fairly close to our recent war. We were invaded by spider like aliens who wanted to use us as canon fodder to divert others from their intentions. However we removed their hold on our planet with explosives that were rigged by what many might consider a disease. Fanatic Patriots.

Tell me about it...

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

If you like. Which tense would you prefer? I always find the narrative present so engaging, but there's a certain artistic nature to the narrative future.

Or were you being rhetorical?

[anoblesavage.livejournal.com]

What worlds?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Tricky thing about the definitive article; what's it definitive of, anyway?

But Maifilo and Picarat are the worlds in question.

...The H. G. Wells book?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Quite! The G.O. Welles broadcast was slightly less true, you see.

[rude-not-ginger.livejournal.com]

Yes, but which edition?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Pick one and I'll tell you its relative veracity.

[dial-a-psychic.livejournal.com]

You´ve read that in wikipedia?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

I never rely on human intelligence for information.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

If only you were as easy to be rid of as those aliens were.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Now now, you know you don't mean that.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

What?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Quite!

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

I really hope you didn't try to recreate it.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Oooh, good idea!
