[ joe's mouth slants into a frown, big fucking doe eyes gone soft. almost a thousand years and he still hates the idea of young people in war. ]
Sometimes it feels like nothing changes, one war ends for another to begin, one people find freedom only to turn around and subjugate another people. [ he sighs, running a hand over his beard. he really does believe the best in people only to be saddened and disappointed when he sees them willfully choosing to hurt others, sometimes for "the greater good", sometimes for personal malice, sometimes for utter selfishness at the expense of others.
he is always so surprised by these bad actions though because he knows there is a better way. he sees nicky choose to be better every single day. ]
Sometimes, no matter what you do, hate will eat away at people's hearts like rust, and we will fail. But sometimes, we will save one person, change one mind, and that can be enough to keep going when it feels hopeless. And just because it's simple, doesn't mean it is ever easy.
