I guess I'm not a duke anymore.

	Isn't that.. kind of a cold thing to say? A lot of people died. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	My lifespan is at least 5 times longer than yours, probably more. Do you know how old Wolverine is? Because I do. I can't let myself get broken up about every little death or person that disappears. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That logic doesn't work. Humans live a lot longer than dogs and cats, but a lot of them still get really upset when their pets die. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, well I don't have anyone in Europe I consider a pet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, but what about your subjects or people in your dukedom or whatever? I know they're not pets, but shouldn't you care about them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't owe them anything. I'm not even really their duke. I just got it so that I could impress a girl and she's gone now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You should still feel something. Millions of people died. It doesn't matter how long you live, you should still care because you're human. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not by their definition. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Why are you acting like this? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	diamondclaws 2008-07-31 11:32 am UTC (link)
	Not to say that we shouldn't care, but that logic doesn't work, either. People aren't pets. Wording it like that cheapens human life. And makes us out to be more normal than we are. We should care because it's right. That's all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wasn't making a be-all end-all metaphor. I was just trying to point out that lifespan shouldn't be a factor. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	And I will live longer than you. That does not give us the right to be apathetic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diamondclaws 2008-07-31 11:44 am UTC (link)
	It's different, though, isn't it? You get to die, don't you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jeansdaughter 2008-07-31 12:11 pm UTC (link)
	You say that like it's a privilege. But yes, I die and then get reborn. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diamondclaws 2008-07-31 12:19 pm UTC (link)
	It is. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jeansdaughter 2008-07-31 12:26 pm UTC (link)
	It's painful, Rose. And I can't control when I get reborn. Sometimes it's a year, sometimes it's decades. When I come back I never know what to expect, who's died, what's happened. It's horrible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diamondclaws 2008-07-31 12:39 pm UTC (link)
	That may be. But you get to rest. If you go crazy, they'll be able to stop you. If you lose everything, you will get to enjoy nothingness for at least a short while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know the grass always seems greener on the other side, Rose. But trust me when I say it isn't. (Reply to this) (Parent)
