... I have a comrade who is better with words than I am. Normally I would ask him to recite a poem, for good men who have passed. I wanted to try but I don't think I would be very good at it on my own.
But I'd like to give them some words of parting, and a memorial.
I'm no poet, but I also believe that words written from your heart is enough. What matters is that the message conveys your emotions, Buzen.
[ :thonk: ]
I had heard from Clarte that Ser Kazunari is planning on drawing something for them... Mayhap we can join his efforts. Wherever he houses his work, we can visit, then send Ser Ryunosuke and Ser Kazuma off with some words.
I carry people with me, wherever I go - but I normally expect them to die, for one reason or another. So I tend to not have things I need to say to them.
However, if you do not believe they will receive your prayers, then there would be little reason to offer them. 'Twould be disingenuous to say that some of it is not out of selfishness. Those who have lost wish to assuage their pain... And I personally have mind to allow them this comfort.
Still, the concept of having words you never had chance to speak until it's too late is common. Man is of regrets as much as he is of hope.
[he laughs a little to himself at that, a soft noise - and there is a clear denial on his lips, because he wants to say again he's not 'man' technically. but he knows what aymeric is getting at]
Mm... I see. That makes sense, given what I know of people. I don't think there's anything wrong with that kind of selfishness from time to time - people should do what they need in order to be able to walk forward in the long run.
I guess it's just different to be among you all when it happens.
[ "man" is a vibe because other races do be "man" vibe. ]
'Twould be heartless to say that I hope you find this experience enlightening... But every experience can offer lessons, whether about ourselves or others.

... Dispirited would be one word, I suppose.
no subject
but buzen's expression falls a little at that]
... I guess that's not surprising. It was pretty hard to watch, even though we all knew what was coming... more or less.
no subject
[ he sighs, but what can they do? ]
What of yourself, Buzen?
no subject
he pauses, thinking about that.]
... I expect very little of this place, when it comes to judgments and encounters with the Prism. But... I still find myself disappointed.
[his expectations were low but holy shit]
But I'm used to death, at least. So I'm faring a little better than those who know nothing of it.
no subject
Disappointment is also a fitting word... Loath am I to say it is good to hear when it speaks to the hardships you've endured.
[ But can't really change that. ]
How would you say we honor Ser Ryunosuke and Ser Kazuma?

[he nods at that]
I'd like that then, Meric-san. It'd be nice if our sentiments could reach them, wherever they might be.
no subject
Have some words in mind you wish to share.
no subject
That's hard... It's a little sad - to say things and not sure if Ryu-san or Zuma-san gets to hear them.
Feels almost a little more selfish.

If we don't have faith, then there's no room for them in our lives.

Mourning, I mean. Grieving....

Whatever feels right to you, Buzen, is right.
