Mm. Though the difference can shrink, depending on how good you are at killing people. [He doesn't think the Judge was wrong to label the people he'd killed on the battlefield as murdered.] I don't think anyone gets through a normal lifespan without a few regrets, the more time you have, the more they pile up. Yet if I went back to the start, I'd still pick immortality.

...Of course, there are a number of bad choices that I'd still pick, even knowing the results. Which can make certain 'work relationships' a little awkward.

[brushoff]

Oh I am very good at killing people, [ he sighs. ] Which also probably makes work relationships awkward. I've no shame in admitting that much.

[riseunparalleled]

Oh, that part's fine. [Whether he'd killed enough people would probably be more contentious, if they talked.] Other issues from back then are less resolved. Which was fine while I was banished, but now...

[brushoff]

But now surprise! It's time to deal with all the issues imaginable!

[riseunparalleled]

[He laughs.] That's sort of a summary of this place, isn't it.

Luckily, at home we can still do the mature thing and continue not to speak about anything.

Three cheers for repression!

[riseunparalleled]

To think some people don't get why manners can be useful on occasion.

[brushoff]

Politeness is a useful weapon to keep in your arsenal.

I've always operated on the understanding that if you ask someone about something they don't want to talk about, they can do the same to you.
