[ Kousetsu can understand that. While his own past isn't as riddled with pain and misfortune he can only imagine how hard it must be to be treated as such for it. A past they could not change and one that people pity them for...it was bad enough as is without the added concern. ]
Humans are passionate and led by their emotions. It is only natural they respond in such a way. [ With that being agreed upon he pauses. ]
I...do not know what beings such as ourselves can do to alleviate this initial response. Perhaps...finding others who share common ground with us is something to do for the future. I am sure there are...others here that have gone through things as we all have.
It's how they respond to things they don't understand. I mean, it's fine — in the end, it's too much to expect humans to understand what it's like.
[ he doubts that he'll find people like that, though, when he already has trouble finding swords that understand, although he doesn't put too much effort into trying, because he doesn't like generating a pity pool. ugh, what cruel god took tsuru and placed him on the Highest Shelf of Maximum Suffering.... ]
They think that going forty — or fifty — years without someone is bad, and they act like it's the worst kind of despair in the world. [ but then they get to die afterwards!! what a treat!! ]
For me, I've found that it takes a few centuries — seeing the land of the people that you used to love change, and seeing civilization change, and in the end, when everything starts changing and it looks as if the people you loved were never there in the first place, that's when it gets the loneliest.

[ he lifts his gaze. ] Wouldn't you agree?
