It would not have changed anything, Cory, if you had stayed there with her. She still would have died. The destroyers, the predators, they always find a way, unless you destroy them first. And she would not let you do that. She chose her fate.

I know. I suppose I always knew. it's the way life goes for mortals. It's hard sometimes for Immortals to accept because unlike mortals, we don't forget after a while. We carry the memories for hundreds of years.
People choose their fates, for better for worst. I did not choose to be immortal. But it's what I am and I accept it. Everything that comes with it. Sadly... heartache is a part of it.

*She stubs out the cigarette, lighting another.*
Mortals don't forget, Cory. We never forget. The sounds, smells, taste....some things burn into your memories. You can't forget, not even when you try. We just carry it around for a shorter time. Then we die. We all die. I am always curious if we get to actually forget it then, or if we still carry those things with us, on the roads to hell. *laugh* I hope we get to.
You should not let the heartache go on. You did the right thing for yourself. Being immortal had nothing to do with it. You deserve better. Now you can have it. And, I am happy for you, honest. I am.
Re: Soft Meta SighcoryrainesMarch 10 2005, 20:19:36 UTC
I have more than a life time of memories to take with me to hell. I don't know if I did the right thing. I will always question that. Just like with you.
I've made bad choices. I deserve all that I get and then some from them. But you know the funny thing... I don't care. Because I know either way, I'm going to be roasting in a fire with little guys stabbing me with pitchforks to see if I'm done.

*Her voice takes a tone that is unlike any he has ever heard from her, like it is someone else speaking.*
Hell doesn't scare me. Not at all. What is it they say, "Serve in Heaven or rule in Hell"? I don't intend to serve any more, so I imagine I will be providing the entertainment.
*laughs*
Of course you did the right thing with me, darling. You felt it, with Mike that day, you knew and you responded. Save yourself, grab the life jacket. And, I won't let those little guys poke you, Cory. When we all get there, I will put in a good word for you, with the big guy.
Re: Soft Meta Sighcarolina_stokesMarch 10 2005, 20:57:21 UTC
Of course I will. You gave me a piece of you, to heal me. I would never forget that, never. Even now, it is part of me. The doctors said they never saw anyone heal faster from a shooting.
*softer*
I failed you. But you did not fail me. Even now, what you did for me gives me strength and power. I will be there, with a margarita on ice for you, Cory. A friend would do no less.
*Bane comes up on the roof and nods. It is time.*
I have to go, Cory. Take care of yourself, and don't waste time with regrets. And everytime I see a big, booming blaze? I think of you.
Bye, Cory. See you when we get there, if not before.

There is no life jacket for me. Never has been. The things I've done... besides I think I already have an inside track with the big guy.
I'll provide the entertainment, you just keep serving up the drinks okay.
