So, then...

What is left to me?

With that bastard confined... I am without purpose.

...perhaps I ought to have remained dead...

But if you stayed dead, wouldn't your friends miss you?

[limpidus]

I have none.

[royalmoonbunny]

I'll be your friend! You can never have too many friends... <3

[limpidus]

Is that so? Do you have any reasoning behind your claims?

[royalmoonbunny]

huh?

[limpidus]

My question was clear.

[royalmoonbunny]

Well.... I suppose because friends are always there for you. ♥

[limpidus]

If I required loyalty, I would look to my soldiers, not to... "friends".

[royalmoonbunny]

But, your soldiers are loyal to you because they have to be.

[royalmoonbunny]

I want to be your friend because I choose to be!

[limpidus]

....you do not make a compelling case, child.

True, my soldiers are loyal because they must be... but, their loyalty goes far deeper than any "friendship" could hope to touch. Hundreds, thousands of them have met the reaper with the words "Hail Weiss" on their tongues. I defy you to name a friend who would demonstrate such loyalty.

[royalmoonbunny]

All of my friends have died at least once for me. I will have died a thousand times over for each and every one of them.

[limpidus]

Then a friend is merely a meaty shield. A soldier who need not obey.

[royalmoonbunny]

I guess... but they're also there for you to share stuff with! Like food, and feelings ^_^

[royalmoonbunny]

Also, I guess it sorta helps that my friends are soldiers ^_^

[limpidus]

There is no point in sharing food. Every soldier is given what they need to survive. As for emotions... the only emotion I have felt in the last decade is hate, and that is not for my allies.

...your soldiers, or do you serve under a common commander?
