seventeenth memory

Finally, the handcuffs came off. I don't care if he kept the ticking away, I never want to see that guy again. These curses are getting less and less dangerous, and more and more annoying.

I need sleep.

What're you talking about? "Never alive in the first place"???

[obliviomancy]

Something that was created instead of born, that doesn't act like a normal being - I don't know if that counts as alive.

2/2

[dontmess]

It counts if you think it counts.

[obliviomancy]

I don't kn It can't count for everyone just because it counts for me. That wouldn't make sense.

(ooc: Strikes are gone.)

[dontmess]

So not what I said. I mean, if you believe you're alive, then why not?

[obliviomancy]

... That doesn't make sense either. If someone killed something like that, does that mean it'd count if the ones he killed thought they were alive?

[dontmess]

Tch. If a tree falls in a forest and no one's there to hear it, does it make a sound?

[obliviomancy]

... Was that supposed to be philosophy or an actual answer?

[dontmess]

Eh, both, but seriously, what are you even saying?

If someone killed something, well then it was alive, wasn't it? You can't kill what's already dead.

[obliviomancy]

If it's philosophy, it's not an answer. Philosophy's about never getting an answer so that you can write long, boring books about how answers don't exist.

Guess that was the wrong question, then.

[dontmess]

Wrong question.

And yeah, mostly, philosophy's a waste of time. But people pay a lot for it.

[obliviomancy]

Yeah. The right question has something to do with when it's right to kill and when it's not. ... Something like that.

People are stupid.

[dontmess]

That's a hard question then, and there's probably a lot of different right answers. And wrong ones.

Unbelievably stupid.

[obliviomancy]

I guessed that much. But it has to be simpler than "there are a lot of different answers".

[dontmess]

Depends on the person.
