It is safe within our temples. Go there if you need protection from - whatever this is.

And to the one who has caused it, I certainly hope you are pleased with yourself.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

you get what you want dont you? if we hide in the temples then you wont be hungry

so why arent you happy?

The emotion you give us simply from being in the temples is not very much at all.

And I would not be happy about someone destroying my home regardless.

you still get fed

i mean thats the whole point of this

No, it isn't. Perhaps that's all you humans care about, but we have different priorities.

kinda hard to think about other stuff

i mean we cant leave
and we cant NOT feed you guys
and when bad things happen we cant fight back

Yes, so why not learn to live with it?

just cause you can survive something doesnt make it okay
you know that right?

you sound the sons when you say that
they take people all the time

There's nothing I can do to send you home. I'm forced to learn how to live with you here - you may as well do the same.

maybe you are but the others hurt us
and you dont stop them

thats why everyone hates you

I have always done my best to mitigate the things that Fear chooses to do - and Rage as well. I am not all-powerful, but I do what I can.

You all hate me because I don't bother to pretend to be nice, despite the things I do for you. It has shown me that humans value words over actions in every case.

but thats the thing
you could have waited until we were gone to bring them back but you didnt

we didnt do anything to you but being here hurts us
and you wont let us go

maybe you cant but saying you do nice things for us doesnt help when your friends hurt us
like when the sons killed the emperor
they said we owed them cause they set us free
but nobody asked them to do that and now they hurt us just like Fear does

you talk just like their boss
she says we should all be grateful
we're only alive because of them so its okay that they take everything

How many times must I tell you all that I have no control over bringing you here or sending you home? I couldn't let you go if I wanted to, and I assure you, if I could trade you all for a less difficult species, I would.

And no. I could not have waited until you were gone to bring them back. Your emotion is what gives me power. Since you are here, and cannot control your emotions, it would be stupid of me not to make use of the power you give.

but if we really really wanted to leave and killed ourselves to get away would you let us go?

Dying won't get you home, and I don't know why anyone would choose to do such a thing. However, if permanently dying is truly what you wished, it could be arranged.

depends if we get tired of being hurt all the time i guess

id rather not but who knows
shit happens right?

I cannot imagine the foolishness of choosing to give up on life.

tough shit

you arent the one watching your friends get eaten by monsters

But I am the one bringing them back when they die. I would prefer it not happen, either.

Huh

I thought you were just being mean but you really don't get it do you?

Get what?

people

like, at all

You contradict each other and do things directly opposed to your best interests based solely on emotions that you can't control.

No, I don't understand you, though I try to.

yeah exactly

your brains dont work like ours
which is weird as fuck by the way but i guess you cant help it

Just as you cannot help what you are. We have to coexist regardless of that. It's trying, but not impossible.

i get that
but heres something for you
youre the one with power here
and youre using us
even if youre trying to be nice about it

we get to be mad about that, okay?
