[ I mean she's still out in Magatus but there's a thought which has sort of lingered in the back of her mind for a while now and as such more to clear her mind from thoughts of wolves and the thoughts of her own son (including of all things puns, why??? she's going to put out vaguepost in the form of: ]

So does anyone else have children in the memories they've been getting?

To answer my own question the woman I am in my memories has a son and then her son has three children as well.

[ So this tbh pretty young looking 41 year old is a grandmother in her memories but that's beside the point. ]

No, I suppose. I wasn't saying that you were, I'm sorry if it seemed that way.

[matchbreaker]

I didn't think you were! Not belittling the wife.

If anything mine just makes me jealous. I'm single and she wasn't.

[wordcarvings]

You'll surely find someone as well at some point.

Though being single isn't the worst thing ever.

[matchbreaker]

[ No it is wow. ]

No need for platitudes, I'll be fine.

So do you end up thinking about that wife?

[wordcarvings]

It's not platitudes.

Yes, a lot. Every day.

[matchbreaker]

You don't really know me, so doesn't it have to be?

Huh, it must stick with you then.

[wordcarvings]

I don't know you, true, but I prefer being sincere. If you want to find somebody, I hope that you do so.

It does; the other me loved her very, very much.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . Hmmm ]

That's good that you can have that sort of connection to think back on

[wordcarvings]

It is, yes. It is something that I am glad to have remembered.

[matchbreaker]

Yeah.

... But isn't it something painful too, to not have it here?

Unless you do, I mean.

[wordcarvings]

To not have it...? Do you mean her? Because that is painful.

[matchbreaker]

I, myself, have never been married.

But I remembered the proposal of her husband last month, it really shook me.

[wordcarvings]

I can imagine. I have not been married here, either, but remembering things of that sort can shake a person.

[matchbreaker]

Honestly, I was jealous of "myself," it was a weird feeling.

[wordcarvings]

But it's not impossible. I am jealous of the other me, as well.

[ As well as feel sympathy and sorrow. ]

[matchbreaker]

Not impossible, but maybe a little presumptuous.

I think I have one of the more positive relations with other-me of people I know.

[wordcarvings]

I suppose so, but it's not something we can help.

Really? That's a good thing, considering a lot of people seem to have fairly negative relations to them.

[matchbreaker]

There's things I'm worried about and there's some despicable things I've seen from her, but overall, I do think I admire her?

Surviving something she went through is amazing.

[wordcarvings]

The good things balancing out and being more than the bad is a good thing; I don't think I have heard anyone say that they admire their other them, before.

[matchbreaker]

Yeah, that really is a rarity, isn't it? I kinda feel bad

[wordcarvings]

I don't think it's something you should feel any bad about, it's a lucky thing.

[matchbreaker]

Only kind of bad like...

The comparison sometimes bothers me, how difficult some people have it.

But no, I'm glad I have the ones I do.
