Sometimes I think that the greatest ability of humans, right after compassion, is the ability to conceive children.

[There's a little pause, as if the next words were an afterthought.] I sometimes have to wonder how it is to know that you are able to found a family like that.

Terrifying. Stupid. Thrilling. Fun. Powerful. It's pretty much everything all at once topped on top of responsibility.

You have a child back home?

[skater-lynx.livejournal.com]

Yeah~ Let's go with that.

[Ignoring the underlying meaning, he didn't mean to pry and make the subject an uncomfortable one.]

Did you have ones here?

[skater-lynx.livejournal.com]

Nope! Kids don't stay kids for very long. For someone like you a kid would probably grow old and die before you knew it.

If they were human.

But since I am a nation, wouldn't it be logical for them to be nations, too?

[skater-lynx.livejournal.com]

You can't have kids cause you're a nation right? Wouldn't you have to adopt?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Greece and Egypt both had children, and Rome had grandchildren.

[skater-lynx.livejournal.com]

Sounds exhausting~

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

That means that nations can have children, if nothing else.

[skater-lynx.livejournal.com]

I thought having kids was a human thing. Whatever~ So what's stopping you?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Me and my partner can't. We're both male.

[skater-lynx.livejournal.com]

Then why are you thinking about it?

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

It was nice when we had a child during the event.

...I'm a bit envious, I guess, I should be more careful.
