Death touches this island in wicked ways. In too many ways, too frequently, really. And there is no service we might do for all those who fall, whether we know them or not.

But I thought it might.. be more equal and respectful to erect a stone wall and write the names of those who pass upon it. Each of them! Even if they are gone before now. And let there stand a permanent marker to their lives here. A collective marker, rather than individual stones. Are we not a community of misfits? Lost in the void. For though, when we die and leave this place, we are leaving behind a piece of ourselves. We have irrevocably touched each other in many ways by simply being here, and so we might honor those influences by remembering those who come and go.

And with such a wall we may let our names and theirs stand in testimony to the future inhabitants of this island. I am under no illusions and believe that one day all the original dwellers will be gone from this place. And who should remember us but the stones and the streams and the lonely streets?

Let us leave our legacy, if only in name, if not in deeds.

	You have more rapport with They would appreciate it more if you Perhaps a park? Though I do not think I would mind being a woman; there is nothing shameful about it, after all, and it would solve many problems I have with my wife I think. Or so I'd hope. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The one by the hospital? I think that would be perfect. Especially over by the water. Hah! You'd probably make a very pretty one. But there's always the likelihood of you becoming Mitchell. And I'm next for that one. He's got more sparkly pictures in his future. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Aye, the water would be beautiful! I will look come dawn and begin there. Thank you, you've been most helpful.

And I would agree--only because I share close resemblance to my sister, and she was very beautiful. I would aspire to achieve such heights of loveliness as her, but I lack a certain grace and natural elegance that comes with femininity. I fear you would laugh at my poor imitation of female-ness.

	Maybe with some benches? Well now, you're rather pretty too. In your own right. You have a very pretty heart. But as an elf you would probably have far more grace as a woman than most true women do. It's the undergarments that you might find a little tricky. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	While I agree that you would make a beautiful woman, the thousand years of our marriage would have been far less fun for me. I have quite enjoyed the fact that you are Male. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, I have. And it would not have been nearly as fun for me if you were a woman. And it would have been far more difficult for us to conceive a child, something that I enjoyed immensely, by the way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I cannot what, Sara? I doubt it is any surprise to any of these people that we have been intimate. We do, after all, have a daughter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Aye but we do not talk in public about it! It is inappropriate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Why? There is no shame in it. It is one of the most wonderful things I have ever known. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No shame, aye, but it is ~~embarrassing~~ our own business. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yes. But it is not as if we are the only ones who know!

My sisters walked in on us...all three of them. And my mother. And my father that one time, and Findekáno - how many times? And your mother. And Aredhel, remember that time she made you help her with her tutoring work for a month so she wouldn't tell your father about that time in his study while he was away to Alqualondë?

	Both of us? The only unfair thing is that I cannot see you now. Seeing you with your ears like that has always brought me glee. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
