I think there need to be a few changes in the way things are done, around here. We've allowed our grief to best us, in the fight for survival. We hold to our homes, rarely venturing beyond the tasks we already know, fearing the extinction of our race and yet inviting it by our own inaction ( Read more... )

I'd like to take you up on your offer if you have the room, Daniel.

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 22 2009, 02:39:53 UTC

Very well; I do indeed have the room. You're welcome at any time.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 22 2009, 03:02:56 UTC

Thank you.

...How are you feeling?

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 22 2009, 03:33:19 UTC

I'm feeling how I choose to feel. Which is, true, a curious sensation.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 22 2009, 03:55:24 UTC

And what of when you had the virus? Do you still feel that way?

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 22 2009, 03:56:31 UTC

And why on Earth would I choose that?

In retrospect, it seems the height of idiocy to cling to pain, as though hurting is what makes you human. Hurting just makes you hurt.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 22 2009, 04:08:52 UTC

By experiencing pain, you're intended to have some form of clarity about your current situation, and then learn about how to continue living with the pain. Maybe even gain an immunity towards that sort of suffering. At least that's how most deal with what life throws at them.

...But you hadn't felt it in a long time, and the hurt overwhelmed you, didn't it?

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 22 2009, 04:12:26 UTC

I suppose it did. It felt rather unpleasant from this end.

Really? I reasoned that having pain serves as a deterrent from actions that caused that pain, and helps a person choose the right way in life. I'm confident that, over the years nearly without pain, I've found my own mechanism.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 23 2009, 04:18:22 UTC

Pain typically is rather unpleasant.

You're not being deterred from those actions by your ability, you're being shielded from the painful effects. Daniel, when you were under the influence of the virus, you hated me. That is an effect, a reasonable one at that, and as grateful as I am for you allowing me to live with you, if you gain enough control over your ability to hate me again, please tell me.

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 23 2009, 04:30:33 UTC

Why is it you assume I'm not in control? I am. This is the right action to take, in terms of survival.

If I ever lost enough control to hate you again, I wouldn't tell you, because why would I warn you if I hated you? But, don't worry, it won't happen.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 23 2009, 05:06:40 UTC

I'd hope you'd get to the point of openly despising me long enough for me to understand before it becomes concealed torture plots. But of course, no. It won't happen. You're in control.

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 23 2009, 05:32:40 UTC

Do not patronize me. You might remember, my power hasn't flagged since it manifested - except for when the disease took that option away, biologically.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 24 2009, 05:26:28 UTC

I'm not trying to patronize you, I'm concerned. I've known people before who thought they had complete control of their ability only to lose it, and the results are never pleasant.

Re: [Locked] buzz_me January 24 2009, 08:28:28 UTC

I haven't lost my caution. I'll know if something starts to go wrong.

Re: [Locked] four_too_long January 25 2009, 01:12:18 UTC

All right.
