As strong as I am, I cannot help being shaped by perception. To be observed is to be known is to be determined into a state. To have a state is to be something. Having to be /something./ At least the something can change.
Hmm... I think we are all shaped by perkheption and prekhonkheived ideas, regardless of strength. People khannot help but khast judgment based on appearankhe, khaste or spekhies, and ability. It's not something we khan eskhape from, more, hm... We khhoose how to manipulate those perkheptions instead, and bekhome our own self.
We are. But I was nothing before that. I am the ideas of shaping before there was something to be shaped. Still, you’re right in principle.
Mm... I suppose. But, it is impossible to return to nothing now that you are something. I don't know if it is wise to try and undo what has already been done.
It’s not impossible for me. But you’re right that it wouldn’t be smart to try.
It would not. I fear to theorise what Glasya would do to attempt to reverse sukhh an impossibility.
Nothing advisable. But I’m not unstable or upset right now, just musing.
Hah. But, I am glad you are well. No harm in musing, though on okhkhasion the untested psykhhologikhal theory that one should not trust the path their thoughts take them after midnight rings true.
My thoughts aren’t taking me anywhere. No action is imminent. I hold possibilities in my mind, but not with the want to execute them. Only to examine.
The 'Lord' title I despise most of all is my own. It's nothing to do with Sburb, or Sgrub, or whatever you call it. And I can never shed it entirely. I cannot help being it. But at the same time, it isn't a role a person should ever have.
hey we both lords an we both old and we both got guns and we both aint into bein gawked at over it. survey says im a laaaawt older than you is. time tells me theres a lotta folx out there wit not dissimilar stories. big big place out there. lets dance the can can together @
You are not older than me. The other two are true, though. Not a dance I prefer, but have fun. Nothing wrong with a good time.
I am as old as the universe.
me too dawg. lotsa universes out there. i mean who knoze. maybe yours is older than mine. they all gotta start someplace. put er there champ @
Then I guess we’re close in age. How rare.
i thought so too but hey i be overturning rocks and finding new geezers all the time. good way to start bein at peace wit what you is, is findin the humility nobody else afford you. if you start livin like a bum then after a few ten twenty thousand sweep thas what you will be. thas what iiii diddddd @
I don’t really need the advice, but thanks, I guess. You mean well, and that’s nice.
yeah my bad. dam. last thing i wanna be is a preacher. wups. all the best ol sport. find ya lazy river. @
It’s fine. I wasn’t offended or bothered, just saying so. And I always find the river.
i think. the more i taste. the more i crave. i thought. connection was the answer. that i was spinning out. in isolation. i wasn't wrong. but this. might be worse. i should have stayed ignorant.
You cannot be ignorant, Bug. I am so sorry. But there’s no undoing it.
I know. That’s why I’m sorry.
learning a lot of nothing about lords tonight.
not a lot worth knowing, tbh. did you have something specific you wanted to learn?
Ok yeah that's different. Well. As a Lord of Blood, you control bonds. You are - you would be, if there were other people around - capable of manipulating their relationships utterly. How they see you. How they see each other. How they understand one another. How willing they are to cooperate. You are a force with potential so assertive you could bend a web of emotion and loyalties like clay. It's a terrible thing to be. I'm sorry.
