Would that be how you would take it?

[ Oh, Hythlodaeus is pointing it out to Hades, when he gets to witness or has been told about it. And he can point out that from most people, that is exactly how Emet-Selch would take it, or as a cause to be even more aggravating.

But Theo isn't most people, not for either of them. ]

[manastacks]

No, it wouldn't be. If there is something that is need of correcting, I would see it done.

[sharpeyes]

That is well.

With him, it is slightly more complicated, and it is a little harder to break habits built over millennia, especially ones built as defensive mechanisms. But when aware that he is causing hurt on those who are important to him, he will at least make an attempt to monitor himself.

[manastacks]

He should be thankful that it was you that answered this message and not he.

[sharpeyes]

Mm. And you? Would you had preferred it had been him?

[manastacks]

I don't think it would have ended so pleasantly.

[sharpeyes]

Mm. It is, I think, easier to continue forward when there is understanding.

[manastacks]

At least one other party here cares enough to come to an understanding.

[sharpeyes]

He will, too. I suspect... when it stops terrifying him, the pain that will come with understanding.

[manastacks]

Is that what it is? What he fears? Feeling, of all things?

[sharpeyes]

This would be what blocks understanding. There are certainly more fears, of course.

None of them that I can discern so far can be called lacking justification. *Especially* the fear of emotions, including but far from only because of the recent - somewhat - for us revelations about Dynamis.

[manastacks]

We all have fears. It isn't wise to hide from them. Only through embracing such things can they then be overcome.

[sharpeyes]

'tis so, but good things still take time.
