I'm ready to quit. This, all of it.

Immortality isn't a gift. It's a curse to watch everyone you ever loved die. All of them are dying and I can't stand it anymore.

Once in a while. Pre-teens are like that. They want their independence. She'll come around.

[a_time_slip]

I hope you're right.

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

*he shrugs* Time will tell. And that's one thing you have with her.

[a_time_slip]

You don't have that with Annika, do you? Do you have it with Moira?

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

Not with Annika, no. I don't know about Moira. Or Maddie.

[a_time_slip]

Enjoy what you have with them.

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

I do. But it's limited. They'll die.

How old are you?

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

Nearly 50.

[a_time_slip]

You've got so long... I hope you find people that can last.

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

I like the ones I have...

[a_time_slip]

Will you still in fifty, or two hundred?

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

Yes.

I don't know what Lynn could do to change that.

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

Lynn?

[a_time_slip]

Yes, though I think she'd need to be older.

[animus-nocendi.livejournal.com]

For what?
