If you didn't try to protect them, you wouldn't have been in danger so much! How many times have they betrayed you?! And you still side with them over your own defenseless kin!

With his usual maniac certainty: ]
It's true.

What would you do with yourself, in a world like that?
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
I don't know.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
You -- the other 'you' -- whatever.
You asked me to kill you. Said there was nowhere else for you to go.
[ There's a mixture of emotions there -- grief, an unspeakable amount of anger, but some hurt and disappointment too. Frustration. ]
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

Bullshit. Paradise isn't real. You live in the world that does exist and start over.
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
The world that does exist exploited our- siblings to death for material gain!
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
And what caused mankind to fall on a dead planet, with no choice but to rely on the Plants to survive?
[ said like: BITCH ]
The Big Fall, maybe?

You can't trust humans!
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
Tesla never should have happened. But humans have saved my life more times than I can count.
Often after you were the one who endangered it.

Well, history is written by the victors, as they say. That wasn't you.

MINUET!
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
His hand tightens on the bottle, tests a theory: ]
I let our sisters decide. For themselves.
They chose humanity.
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
Why?!
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
Hard to say what this emotion is exactly. It's not smug because there's no satisfaction to it.
Maybe it's the way a hunter feels when they finally shoot down the buck. ]
Gotcha.
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
You didn't answer my question.
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
They're stronger than either of us; they don't need us deciding for them.
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
What is that supposed to mean?!
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
If you'd listened to them more, maybe you'd know.

What are you talking about?
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
just a fucking echo of that emotion. knocked right out of his anger for the moment.]
What are you talking about?
Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare
I've never heard of a Plant unable to hear the voices of the others.
