i don’t know, i’d say getting kidnapped and tortured entitles you to a little complaining.
it’s usually pretty permanent where i’m from, too. less so in the place i was in before getting brought here, but i feel like death isn’t something you should really get used to, even if it doesn’t last where you are. you know?
yes. a few people had answers for me. and koby offered a few more details on what to expect.
ha! well, between you and me, then, it's taken some getting used to.
and yeah, exactly — i wonder if it changes how people think or feel, when they get sent back home? maybe you stop thinking about it as a real risk, and that feels more dangerous than anything else.
i'm glad to hear that, too. for both of your sakes.
i’ll bet. it’s not even my first go-round with a place like this and it’s been different.
maybe. i sometimes wonder if this being all some people have makes them more reckless, knowing they’ll come back. but you’re right. i think that makes it all the more dangerous.
thank you, and likewise. it still sort of feels like the other shoe has yet to drop.
was the first time any different? i guess it's crazy to ask you to rate your experiences against each other, but — maybe it's because it's my first time that i'm curious.
