the actions of the few don't represent the many. same way around, too. a large majority can cause a big scene, but that doesn't mean everyone agrees with them, or shares in what they think.
to be human is to feel emotion. many people express emotion in different ways. violent ways, peaceful ways.

Think that's just the general takeaway, yea? We all got problems, but we can be resentful, too.

pretty much. now a giant truck, that would be.. a medium sized injury.
train would be horrid.
train would be horrid.
( genuine look of concern ) would that mean getting hit by a car would be considered a “minor” injury to you .ᐣ
i would consider major danger jumping into a volcano. i imagine both myself and this flesh suit wouldn't survive that. stab wounds, my magic can take care of.

that IS major danger, gettin’ stabbed is a pretty serious thing ‘phae. i’m glad you survived though, really.
not that i know of. but i also don't exactly throw myself headfirst into major danger. knives and such are nothing to me.

well, it isn't the eyes. it's the thing next to the eye. most that would do is give you dry eyes for a bit.
i offered to turn someone into a shark once. they stabbed me.

i’m just very sensitive when it comes to my eyes and that suggestion sounded like you were going to do something to them so i panicked
all you'd need to do is ask. everyone always freaks out when i suggest things.
