No idea. I'm not sure if I could find other weasels around here. Not sure those are pack animals anyway.

It's nice to hunt with other people though.

Is it? ... Must be the pack mentality. I don't think I'd care for it myself.

But it's good to know, for his sake. Mr. Strange generally us a very social man, he's just not faring very well at present.

Most people don't. At least early on. I guess they just adjust eventually.

[It's hard for him to see enough of that throughline to feel like he knows how to help, though. Michael didn't exactly approach this from the same place as most people.]

As we do to just about all of this, I suppose.

Some people see that as a bad thing, but ... adapting is what humankind are meant to do. Or we wouldn't have even been able to build the lives we had before. ... But this wasn't meant to turn to philosophy. My apologies.

No, no. Your whole thing is that you're adaptable.

[Is that the first time he's so much as alluded to not being human? Oops.]

I get why people feel that way. It's not good to become so adapted to it that you lose sight of the weight and consequences of what it is you're doing. It shouldn't be a casual thing.

But at the same time, it's a necessity. All you can really do is try and keep the harm you cause to a minimum. Beyond that, it doesn't really do any good to torture yourself about it.

(mind if I start to nudge this toward a wrap so we can do new things?)

[if Michael wasn't human before this, it's nothing to Childermass: he knows cookies, after all]

You and I seem to be of like minds on that particular point, as well. Thank you for this conversation, it's been doing me a world of good. I hope it's been pleasant for you, as well.
eudaimonikos: (start over again and again)

sounds good!

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2023-09-10 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, of course.
I'll look forward to talking more when I'm feeling a little better.

[Hopefully? The freaking moon comes back soon or something???]
