Day 68 | Phone Call | Post-Sacrifice

[lamina_cito]

Perhaps... she is correct. Humans are not worth protecting. Weak, easily corrupted, and still we have fought for them.

What's done is done.

[With that there is a cold silence and a click. Guess you'll have to call back.]

Comments

[demiurgos_girl]

They are. They're worth protecting.

[lamina_cito]

There is no point. They condemn us and then each other. Why should I protect them?

[demiurgos_girl]

So that they stop. Teach them how to fish, you know...?

We can't expect them to get better if no on teaches them how.

[howlingimmortal]

[Yeah he's calling you back. His biases will be showing, more than likely. It doesn't matter if she answers the call, because if she doesn't, he'll leave this as a message.]

Humans are too fickle for their own good. They'll do whatever it takes for their own survival and then turn around and condemn it. Those like us... we can't escape it. Makes me sad.

[lamina_cito]

[There's just that listening silence for a while.]

I can no longer see reason to protect them.

[howlingimmortal]

[Well, he's a bit stunned by that, and isn't quite sure how to proceed, so he decides to err on the side of caution.]

I know how you feel.

...You want me to come find you, or...?
