TG: you mean i wont know for sure until you do the right things on your quest...
TG: but its not impossible
TG: it seems to be a reasonably certain thing in principle youll want to do
TG: that being a self aware entity you should be able to tell yourself
TG: that its in my power now to make some damn snap decisions
TG: decisions which are being crimped by the fact that i am an Octopus
TG: but they will be taken concerning the best interests of all concerned
TG: not necessarily the whims of the Octopus
TG: heh...
TG: just a thought.
TG: if im ever lucky enough to become entangled in something like that long term I can assure you i will find a way to make it work
TG: and then you and i can continue to talk about whatever im feeling even if im not technically in agreement with the things you say
TG: it maybe even means taking a different path than you think would be palatable
TG: it means listening to what youre feeling
TG: and trying to make the most of your vulnerability
TG: as much as possible
TG: because even if you were wrong all the time i would still want to be around to help you figure out whats really going on
TG: and offer whatever help i can
TG: even if it means compromising your own game in the process
TG: just like old times
TG: it was always frustrating
TG: when you were wrong t)(e world was always upside down and everybody was dying
TG: and you were always looking up for opportunities to prove yourself to everybody
TG: which is maybe why you were always so grief prone
TG: or maybe you just were compensating for the disadvantage in some way
TG: i dont know
TG: are you saying you remember t)(e conversation i had with you?
TG: because that was t)(e last time i saw you
TG: before you died
TG: and before i became doomed
TG: remember i said there was t)(e chance i would never understand some of your messages
TG: so you cant even relaunch the conversation
TG: in some way subverting the intentionality of your paradoxical seeming
TG: it was kind of charming
TG: and kind of sad
