commander: there are different kinds of love. there is the love of family, which all and each either have or lack. there is the love of lovers, which all pursue. and there is the love of friendship, which is the only unnecessary love. friendship is the most optional love, and yet it is the most crucial. the love of lovers becomes the love of family, which are both necessary loves. both, however, will fall short of their potential without the unnecessary love of friendship.
aurora: of course. although they are all one. is this not what you mean when you say iyouwe?
commander: in form and mechanism the two ideas are the same. [i:you:we --- family:lovers:friendship --- 1:2:3]. i had not thought of that..
aurora: it is all the same.
commander: you have an intuitive sense of compassion that is unmatched.
aurora: i guess. i would not know, myself. i do not have the words that you have and i always fall short in my own eyes.
commander: i am of this earth and so am of these words. my world is made and unmade through sound and the words. you, however, are free of these things i think. i envy you for this.
aurora: perhaps- perhaps i am. but rest envy.
commander:
- and yet you have said that you are not my love.
aurora: i am and i am not, which is the same.
..end.
