yeah? how many of those centennials should I be congratulating you for?

[ That's just curiosity, and it's a little bit playful. For the other part, he patiently waits, and even no answer would be acceptable. As such, he notices that he doesn't answer the question directly, but that still answers his question in a way. ]

haha I bet. can only guess what it must be like to be given life that way. a soul's a gift for sure, but still, must be different when you didn't have one to start.

[cranekin]

I've lost count. I read I'm over a thousand, though.

Hmm, I suppose so! But you probably know. "Being alive" can have different meanings for different things.

[fursuit]

damn, that’s impressive. guess that makes sense though, since I’ve heard the Japanese take real good care of their weapons.

plus I get losing track. same with me. couldn’t tell you how long I’ve existed

anyways. what’s it mean for you?

[cranekin]

Some better than others!

(He's also experienced plenty of neglect and disrespect in his long life. He's just been luckier than others to endure as long as he has.)

Are you surprised that flesh feels different from steel? There are some things one can only feel in a human form and other things humans would struggle to understand.

(This isn't really answering the question.)

I don't know where to begin.

[fursuit]

nope. not surprised. it’s a different experience, being brought into existence versus being born and raised. that’s why I wonder, since only ever met gods that have that kind of experience.

so, I’ll put it this way instead. don’t got parents so much as “creators”. a sword is forged for a purpose, and same for me. but that purpose ain’t the same as living.

so, let me put it this way. do you enjoy being able to decide your own fate?

[cranekin]

(HE DOES NOT LIKE THIS CONVERSATION ANYMORE. It is triggering his fight of flight and his wing span is huge.)





A sword is still a sword. That isn't for me to decide.

[fursuit]

[ He might not be able to tell over text, but he’d be so pleased to know that… His desire to be encourage conflict includes this! ]

sure it is! you’re a sword, but you still got a body to go experience the world with

…unless I’m misunderstanding, which is possible! you got someone wielding you?

[cranekin]

(1. Cranes are a symbol of peace.
2. The average wingspan of a red crowned crane is 8 ft
3. Tsurumaru Kunianga is going to use every inch he has to PEACE OUT OF THIS CONVERSATION NOW)

[ if you think being ignored would stop him. well.

He does wait a while. A good while, even! But about an hour later comes another message. ]

what!! it's a fair question ian't it? I piss you off or something????
