Okay actually that's worse because it shows he knows he should do it but just doesn't bother.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

He's...trying. Gods just don't make super great or attentive parents.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

He could try harder.

[ opens mouth

...yeah, guess so.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

What is it?

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

You're not gonna like it.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

I already don't like it, go ahead.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

The gods' kids sorta keep dying too young for them to try harder.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

Okay first off, that's really sad, but secondly and not any less importantly, that's not an excuse!

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

I mean. If you lived for millennia, and you're used to zoning out and missing centuries and it's no biggie, kids who live like twelve to eighteen years max are pretty easy to miss.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

Yeah no I don't agree with that at all.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

Don't get me wrong, I definitely think it sucks.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

Yeah. I mean... If they can un-zone out long enough to have kids, they can un-zone out long enough to pay any attention to them.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

You'd think.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

Exactly.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

...guess I should be glad it wasn't worse, though. That was just an annoying vision.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

What do you mean?

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

Some of the others were kind of, um.

[ TRAUMATIC ]

More serious? You know, like the prophecy thing or the one war. So compared to that, this was just a lowkey one.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

Well, you can still be annoyed about it if it's annoying.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

It's super annoying. But also kinda is what it is, I guess.

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

I guess...

Oh, by the way, can I ask something?

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

What's up?

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

Are you okay to stay while I watch some...? I think I've only got two I've missed.

Re: day 251 sometime

[audacity]

Yeah, always. I didn't know you were gonna start watching yours again. Everything okay?

Re: day 251 sometime

[heartlands]

I'd been thinking about it for a little, but after the last Performance, it's like...

[pauses for a moment]

Bad things happen here all the time, and at least this time - even if I see a vision of the worst case scenario, it's one less thing to have hanging over my head, you know? Like... Maybe I can move on once I know for sure.
