If you would like to leave a message, you may do so here. I can't promise to respond. I have many demands on my time, and this sort of thing is far down the list. Still, if you would like to, you may.

It isn't that type of pain or unpleasantness. It's... difficult to explain.

Have had several chances, though. More than what was even deserved.

[voice]

[lingeringhope]

Why? Do you think that only certain people deserve another chance at life?

[voice]

[circumitus]

Isn't that how it should be?

[voice]

[lingeringhope]

Not at all. Lives are equal. One is not more valuable than another.

[voice]

[circumitus]

Have always had a different opinion on the matter. Believe that there are some who deserve to die more so than others.

[voice]

[lingeringhope]

You believe that you should have the power to decide that?

[voice]

[circumitus]

No. Don't believe in having much power in anything at all, to be honest.

Do you believe you have the power to just decide who lives and who dies, or do you just keep doing your thing with bringing people back indiscriminately?

[voice]

[lingeringhope]

It's not in my best interests to leave any of you dead, and it goes against my nature. I won't pick and choose.

[sigh]

Fine.

If you could just... forget that this conversation ever happened... Would appreciate it.

[voice]

[lingeringhope]

I will pretend to forget it, for your comfort.

[voice]

[circumitus]

Thank you.

[She can think of a few people who would get very pissed at the mere suggestion of what she had just tried to ask of Hope.]
