asgardeventide

I suppose this is a question that has been asked before, but not in my (admittedly brief) time here. I apologise if it's a subject that comes up entirely too often, but it's one that I've been curious about for quite some time now. It's also a delicate topic, I know, so feel free to reply privately if you feel uncomfortable talking about it. Or don't reply at all. That's fine, too.

[It's certainly a difficult subject for her to talk about at times. That's why this is in text, rather than voice or video. But getting to the point...]

Who among the Travellers is dead back home? Not in some nebulous future 'everyone dies eventually' sort of way, but something rather more immediate, in that you died just before coming here. What do you expect will happen when you leave Asgard? Do deceased Travellers simply return to being deceased? Is there some sort of afterlife in your world?

[She remembers all too well Owen and Suzie mentioning the darkness that's all that exists after death. It's something that's kept her up at night more than a few times.]

I don't ask this for the sake of any sort of theological debate, mind, but out of curiosity. I don't personally subscribe to any particular system of belief, but I respect those held by others. I just want to know what you think will happen.

Are you actually capable of conversing civilly without resorting to petty insults?

Yes. Not to get all school yard, but I believe you started it first. I used a term, you took offence. Not my fault you took a harmless jibe seriously.

If anything I'd said was wrong, I'd apologies. But I'm not.

Despite what you might think of my species, I'm hardly stupid. You chose your phrasing in order to deliberately provoke Jack. I don't particularly care whether or not you apologise, I'm just trying to figure out whether or not I'm wasting my time continuing this conversation.

If you were smart, you would of ended this conversation around about the time your boss inevitable warned you to stop. But you didn't. And that really wasn't very smart, was it?

Of course, you'll probably understand that better in time.

This isn't the first time I've been threatened, and I'm sure it won't be the last. I'm hardly going to cower in fear just because you think I ought to. Good day, Mr Saxon.
