Others have been mentioning dates of birth and so I was wondering: what do your people do in order to celebrate the day someone is born, or named, or comes into their own?

Also, how do your people celebrate the lives that have ended?

[He's surprised, probably for more selfish reasons than not.]

Something like that is possible? Do you remember it clearly? I don't mean to pry, but that's some impressive technology they must have, to defeat death.

cassian is like why did I volunteer this information...

[ouzel]

Apparently.

I was suffering from a myriad of injuries and was on painkillers at the time of my debriefing after arriving here however I was told that I arrived just prior to the moment of my death.

There are people here that came from a time after that. I did not mythically return from the dead.

I also recall others mentioning being from a similar point in their lives.

cassian you're full of mistakes,

[finethanks]

I see. That does make more sense.

Well, there's no use worrying about that, is there? No one knows when they might die, so your mortality is just like anyone else's. Time is strange here, but being alive in this place means you've been given extra time. It's similar to the time I've been given, even though the family doctor had said I had only days to live from the moment I was born.

Are your injuries healed?

it's not like kay and jyn didn't discuss his mental health re: being dead IN DETAIL further down

[ouzel]

From that event, yes.

I mean that's very true

[finethanks]

Were you hurt during the mission?

[ouzel]

Nothing serious. Did you participate in the Gamma missions?

[finethanks]

Yes, but I was more of a nuisance than anything helpful. Even still, thanks to Victor and Yuuri I was able to meet the Fek and understand them a bit more because of it.

[ouzel]

Well, at least you put forward the attempt. I'm sure they appreciate someone familiar with their culture being on board.

[finethanks]

Yes. I can't imagine what it would be like if they had no one they felt comfortable with at all. Truthfully, even we are probably not enough. Until recently, we couldn't communicate with them at all. Only able to guess, I'm certain they were suspicious of us. I wonder if they blame us for what's happened.

[ouzel]

They very well may. Have you spoken with them since they've arrived?

[finethanks]

Yes, but I don't have the heart to bring up such serious topics. They don't seem to want to discuss their relationship with the other alien race, so I haven't pushed. Rather, I think it's important to make them comfortable by refusing to walk on eggshells and instead helping them to settle down.

[ouzel]

It is up to you, I suppose.
