[Throne's handwriting is neat and precise and deliberate, for once, but still clearly his.]

Would you rather be at home, dreaming of this place?

Or be stuck here, and dreaming of home?

the truth still lingers in me, the good times are killing me, they give and they take, the past is not a place you can visit, on my own if i have to, recycle me for all i care

What of those who have no home to return to? I must ask.

Some of us are lost. Some of us are dead. Some of us -- most of us -- can't really remember either way, yeah?

What happens to those folks -- what happens to each of us -- at the end of the day, are each of our choices, I think.

I understand. I was merely interested to see what you thought on the matter.

However...I do remember. At least my death.

struck out immediately. child_proteus November 25 2008, 07:20:16 UTC

What I personally think doesn't really seem to be a popular opinion.

Oh, I'm -- I'm sorry to hear that.

...

So, what do you think of this place?

She can't strike out. But she'll tell him in person that his opinion is of interest to her. unwinding_key November 25 2008, 07:22:25 UTC

At first I thought it was some strange sort of afterlife. I have the distinct impression that someone I knew would not be impressed with it as such.

Now, however...in merely two weeks I am not certain what I think of this place.

Some people think that this is a second chance. A fresh start.

Do you?

unwinding_key November 25 2008, 07:39:19 UTC

It begs the question: a second chance at what? My death was no accident, and my murderer did not survive. I wonder what sort of thing I would have a fresh start to do.

In all honesty, Edensphere is beginning to feel too familiar to be a very fresh start at all.

child_proteus November 25 2008, 07:48:10 UTC

A fresh start to live life again. To do things or experience things you hadn't before. I'd imagine those sorts of things? Though I guess anybody could make that argument -- even those who haven't, like...

[a very long pause]

...died yet.

At the cost of keeping those who have lives, homes, somewhere else to be from moving on?

No. I may be selfish at times but I am not that selfish.

The topic of who has and has not died prior to arriving here has been a popular one with me, as of late.
