"Not those ones, no." But they're not here to talk about bacteria. "Zoan, I think it means something like that, we use it to talk about classes of animals. Types of animals. Like the paramecia, they're protozoans. Proto-animals." That's simplifying it a bit, but how else is he supposed to explain that?
"In my world, those words come from... Latin, or Greek or something. Usually Latin. A very old language, thousands of years old, no one speaks it anymore. Logia is something to do with words, I think. Paramecia just means... oblong, roughly." But words and oblong-ness have nothing to do with those powers, so his hypothesis is moot. Still, very interesting that they have one word in common.
"I've wondered sometimes if our worlds don't share some common background. If they might be different versions of the same place. Perhaps their history is much the same until some event or other diverts it."
