As my cousin stated yesterday, spring is at last in the air. And it disturbs me to see so many people worrying about their deaths and dying at such a time. I understand that for Men, Death is often a preoccupation in its speed and inevitability, but I should think that at such a time as this, time could be better spent in the making of life.

I suppose that human children are made and grown in the same way as elven children, and are as precious to their parents. Are there those of you here who are planning to have children soon? Or is this something you try to prevent as much as possible?

I know my people do not have children in times of war or strife - is this true for Men as well? I fear that if they did this, with the shortness of their lives, there would be no men left at all.

	Well, I'm pretty sure I physically can't but apart from that, it would be irresponsible of me. Children need a lot of attention and a lot of love. Somebody like Annie Odair is complex and giving enough to make it happen. Not me. You were a king. Presumably you needed an heir. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, that is true. I was, but upon my death my crown went to my brother. I never married nor had a child. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm glad somebody finally recognizes that I'm a shallow asshole. Careful, elf. I might actually start to like you. How come? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That is an overly simplistic explanation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Aye you forgot to add that you are stubborn and ugly so elf maids do not look your way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And I suppose it is your hair that has scared them away, and the fear that you will eat their fëar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Aye, but you cannot say I am not well-shaped. I am Maitimo after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So says your mother. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And she would be true. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You are well made enough, I suppose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You have seen so, wretch. When I am whole. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	findekano 2013-03-03 04:09 am UTC (link)
	You are whole now, to me. I do not notice what you have lost, only that you are still here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nelyafinwe 2013-03-03 04:34 am UTC (link)
	Of course, you are blind to the foulness of the appendage as is your wont. I care not. I am me, after all. And you are you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You would not be more dear to me if you had both hands. (Reply to this) (Parent)
