What would you consider to be unforgivable?

cw: suicide idealisation

[dothelokimotion]

I couldn't say.

[ Mostly because both times, he had no real desire to survive. The third time was different and that's why it hurt.]

I had little fear of death, I suppose.

[billyrocks]

I imagine a god wouldn't fear death since they are immortal.

[With this being text, Billy can't hear the implication behind those words, which was one of the reasons he didn't like texting. He couldn't read a person's body language, or see the look in their eyes, or hear their tone of voice.]

[dothelokimotion]

No, we do not. But perhaps we are lacking in that area.

[billyrocks]

How so?

[dothelokimotion]

We would appreciate our time more if we felt it closing.

[billyrocks]

Isn't it better to have all the time in the world to do the things you wish?

[dothelokimotion]

Do you think so?

How long do you think such things will last? Because time outlives it all.

[billyrocks]

It's just something I've heard a lot of people wish for back home. The idea itself sounds great, but there's always a catch.

[dothelokimotion]

That is usually the case. Mortals aren't built for long lives anyway. They cannot contain it.

[billyrocks]

I'm not interested in immortality, but I've heard plenty of tales of men who spent their whole lives searching for it.

[dothelokimotion]

Yes, it does seem to be a goal for many mortals.

[billyrocks]

Would you consider your own immortality to be more of a curse? Or do you have mixed feelings about it?

[dothelokimotion]

I've lived with it all my life. It would be hard for me to consider it as anything but normal.

sorry, I had writer's block for this

[billyrocks]

I could say the same about my mortality. It's almost funny how we tend to wonder what we might be like if we had another person's attributes, but I try not to waste too much time worrying over it. I work with what I have, and that's how it's been my whole life.

Maybe in the end, that's all any of us can do, mortals and immortals alike.

no worries!

[dothelokimotion]

That is usually the case, though people rarely arrive to that conclusion.

[billyrocks]

Is it hard for gods to reach that conclusion too?

[dothelokimotion]

I . . . suppose it can be.
