This place has such strange music...

Lovely, and yet so full of sadness and the quick decay of Men.

How do Men stay happy with so much loss? How do they not spend all their time weeping? Your lives are so short, and as you live them, everyone you love must die.

Perhaps...does it make every moment of your lives all the sweeter, and all the more precious, knowing that you can only cling to it for a time?

WHY ARE ELVES SO DEPRESSING?

It is the nature of the elves to feel the world. All its pains and joys.

I am sorry. I do not mean to be. Rather, I meant to comment on how amazing Men are, that they can stay happy in the face of such darkness.

What music inspired this, anyway?

And yet, they've got nothing against Angel. True story, that.

I'm kinda wanting this guy to come through the Tesseract, because I think the dick-measuring between you two would be hilaaaarious.

I guess we're all pretty happy that we're not mayflies. They come and go even faster.

And yet even they have their joys and sorrows, I suppose.

I don't go out of my way to squish them just in case.

Regarding the whole lurking mortality clause thing: yeah, we could die at any moment. But I think any life, no matter how short, can potentially mean something.

Quick decay of men.

I only ever heard that kind of talk from Alliance.

Men grieve. Much sorrow is theirs.

And yet much joy, despite it.

I do not know their joy, save only in passing.

That's a good question. You definitely appreciate the people you have when you've lost others.
