T-Rex: Every day, everyone in my story gets a little older! Everybody dies, eventually!
T-Rex: Just like real life!!
T-Rex: But one scientist is studying aging and makes the stupendous discovery that the ONLY reason we age is that every time we make a mistake, we get older. It's like this law of the universe that encourages the evolution of perfect beings. If we could somehow stop making mistakes, we'd never die!
Dromiceiomimus: So she stops making mistakes?
T-Rex: She tries to, anyway!
Utahraptor: But how does she know what counts as a mistake?
T-Rex: She's a scientist! SHE SCIENCES.
T-Rex: Through experiments she begins to determine what counts as a mistake, and adjusts her life accordingly. Soon she's behaving strangely, living outside of society: a pariah! But she's so close to not aging at all that she can taste it. (It tastes like candy, FYI!)
Utahraptor: And then?
T-Rex: And then she succeeds and lives forever and she's so great and smart and pretty and she marries me!!
T-Rex: SURPRISE
T-Rex: THIS IS ACTUALLY FAN FICTION ABOUT MYSELF AND YOU LISTENED TO EVERY WORD THIS TIME
