What is even the point of becoming close to anyone here, if they can all just leave as quickly as they came?

Oh, sure, let's all play our little games and finish our silly little quests and feel this sense of camaraderie working towards a goal we all damn well know is unaccomplishable. And along the way, we can learn the magic of friendship only to have it taken away by the Rifts without any further explanation.

It would be nicer to believe we were being held to the whims of some vengeful god instead of the unfeeling randomness of the Rifts and their "unknowable" magic.

Then, at least, there would be someone to curse for the cruelty of it.

Guess I don't know anything about you since it's a message in a bottle and all. Do you like that?

[subigito]

It's just what I'm used to.

[cursedwords]

That's a no. I can tell you, having friends is better than not having them, even if they die tomorrow - at least you had something.

[subigito]

I don't know that I agree.

[cursedwords]

Being in a position where I didn't have anyone, and now I do, that's my opinion. It's better.

[subigito]

Well, I'm glad it's worked out for you.

[cursedwords]

For now, at least, but we could all die any day so. It's fleeting.

[subigito]

So we could. Best to stay away from any giant shrimp bent on eating you.

[cursedwords]

I'm planning on avoiding death today. I don't want to give some people the satisfaction.

[subigito]

Good. That makes two of us, then.
