It made me a lot happier. I also got a family. Sort of.

How?

Video purplebiker August 26 2010, 03:59:51 UTC

Saw a mother figure in someone, saw a sister figure, and my mother figure's other kids sort of consider me family. Sort of.

How did you even know what a mother figure was? Thought you never had one.

I've learned what it's like to have to work and support yourself.

text; maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:03:15 UTC

How do you think that's affected you?

voice thesubsequent August 26 2010, 05:13:38 UTC

I'm actually useful now, I suppose, whereas before I hardly had any working skills, among a variety of other skills I didn't have before.

text; maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:15:40 UTC

What can you do now?

Why would you assume it has?

text; maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:05:01 UTC

What I assumed was that people who it has not changed would not answer, or would ask me why I assumed it did.

If I simply said 'How has the Thor changed you,' I would get a whole lot of people simply saying, 'Yes,' and that's not interesting to read at all.

That being said, if you can remain totally the same person given the socioeconomic, political and cultural mess here, I'm very impressed.

[Voice] forgotten_pilot August 26 2010, 05:13:46 UTC

I've kept largely to those of my own world.

[Just not as much as she thinks.]

Living here is not as difficult as many of the refuges make it out to be.

[Yep, denial.]

text; maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:15:05 UTC

Oh, lucky of you, then.

Things don't need to be difficult to incite change.

You're asking a lot from people who don't know you.

Re: [text] maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:03:41 UTC

You're under no obligation to answer.

[private / text] notpaid2dodge August 26 2010, 06:09:59 UTC

[Ah, but he can see Meiran doing it; if she's willing to say something, however small, then he will too.]

All right.

I no longer have a home to go back to.

[there's an actual pause here. then--]

None of us do, kid.

I've learned of the experience of freedom. Of thought, and of deed.

Re: [text] maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:33:10 UTC

There's no freedom where you're from?

Re: [text] dr_kiriko August 26 2010, 05:52:37 UTC

Not for a person like me, no. The Thor has been my first haven of rest in nineteen years.

Re: [text] maskedbreathing August 26 2010, 05:56:31 UTC

Sucks.
