[ he won't but he absolutely, without a doubt, will remember it. also this is really funny now after the announcement. ]

I'd never acknowledge any kind of being that would behave like this. If they want to do something like this, then there's no reason to go around and be so cowardly about it.

[ hey! things ended up okay!!! ]

...or maybe they're the worst kind of villain. The one that plays with their "food" before they kill them all anyway.

Pride, courage, cowardliness... It doesn't matter much to those guys. They simply just off on people's reactions.

[ he does, unfortunately. it's why he can say this without any real heat. ]

I'd say they don't. They come off as the sort that don't bother to worry about morality. If they were even real people to start off with.

Maybe once, but definitely not right now.

I'd think of them as echoes of a person or a group of people.

[ given the stakes that are at hand and how things have been explained to them, it's not a far stretch or leap of logic. ]

It would make sense to assume something like that. Whatever game that this "Father" is playing now can't be the first time that he has ever tried it.

Beings like him would hardly start at one if they decided to start at all.

Looks like part of the goal, if it wasn't before, would be a way to end this cycle. It wouldn't feel right to be able to escape knowing others would just be dragged in.

[ you know. unless you're people who don't care about others which is fine, i guess?? but she hardly seems like that type. ]

I'd hold them at a distance. My past experiences with beings like them have never ended well.

[ hmm. ]

Really?

I guess their story deserves some empathy but... [ he'll rub the back of his head (since he's neck is still injured here). yes, he knows how cynical he sounds here but sometimes you just have to say the words. ] If you spin a story enough, you can draw sympathy from anyone.

[ looks at the date all sweaty like. ]

Maybe to some people. Typically there are limits to everything.
