I don't think people appreciate the gravity of the situation here.

We're facing the end of days and there is more talk about weddings that battle plans. Movies seem more important than patrolling.

I was encouraged to find more than the battle but if we don't make it a priority thee won't be any weddings, or movies, or popcorn. None of it matters.

I can't afford to waste my time any more. None of us can.

	We need the wedding planning, the talk of movies, the normalcy of going to work every day and a million other little things so that we can fight. So that we have a reason to get up every morning and face the nightmare that we know this world to truly be. If all anyone focused on was the impending battle they'd go insane.

	I don't understand. ~~To me those things are the nightmare. Those limiting needs.~~ Do you really find fulfilment in distraction? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I find fulfillment in living my life. In being able to accomplish my work, spending time with my family and friends, being able to lay in bed with the man I love and talk about absolutely nothing for hours on end. What's the point in stopping Lucifer if we don't live our lives? What are we fighting for if we do not know what it is that he's trying to destroy? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We stop him because this isn't his time. Because... the world should have another chance. If we go "on with our lives" as if this isn't happening we won't have long before there is no bed to lay in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The world is getting another chance because we keep on fighting though. We're taking the classes, keeping abreast of what's happening around us. No, I'm not saying we go on with our lives to the exception of fighting against him, but we need to be able to breathe sometimes, to stand back and recuperate. If we don't then this modpodge army won't last very long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And what is happening? How long do you need to rest? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We're working to get Death's ring. Specifically me? According to my doctor I should be resting for another four weeks but he can't bite himself. I can't answer that for everyone else. We battle what the world throws at us while those who understand better what's happening try to figure everything out so we might have an upper hand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But talk of other things? You're not a hunter. I understand the difference but they have been quiet also. Even I... let myself be drawn into recreation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

There are those who go on hunts. There are some who work on fortifying where we live. Personally I take the classes to be better prepared for what is thrown at us next.

No, I'm not, but that doesn't mean I don't fight. And you're referring to Sam and Dean, yeah? A lot happened to them before you came here. They just lost their brother again. Sam has a baby girl to look after. Dean has a kid to worry about as well. They can't fight every day of their lives without it being a strain.

What's so wrong with recreational activities?

	Yes. That's what they are for. They have been here years. Other versions of me... There's no end to this? If there is a push to be made I have no reason not to make it. I don't see the point of them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thatlanewit 2013-01-28 06:47 am UTC (link)
	What push are you thinking of making? And who's to say it's you that needs to make it? Or that making a big push won't just screw everything up even more than it already is? I don't think you see the point to many things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't ask others to ~~give up~~ risk what they have here. Likely not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Everything in life is a risk. Keep working on understanding. Maybe by doing so you'll learn how to defeat Lucifer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ofthursdays 2013-01-28 07:11 am UTC (link)
	There are degrees of risk. I don't see how. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thatlanewit 2013-01-28 07:13 am UTC (link)
	Of course. No, I don't think you would right now. But it can take time to learn what it means to be human. Maybe you should speak to the others who've had to learn that as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not right after you lose it doesn't, but in the long run it's better. And for a number of people here this is the only place they can do that. When they return home, they'll be dead. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
