How do you so easily resign yourselves to the inevitable?

You simply accept that you cannot control your stay here; that there will be threats to your lives and livelihood, that you are at the whims of another...and that, ultimately, you have no control. Even when dying, there is an air of defeat about you.

Is this a Human trait?

It certainly seems to be, doesn't it.

[hackeralastair]

Kind of.

there's a healthy dose of denial involved, and I'm pretty sure that's entirely human.

No

[ that singular answer sits for a few moments, because don't you dare call her human. come on, kanaya, you can do better than that. ]

Its Easier For You To Think You Might Have Some Chance Of Otherwise

You must be new.

Humanity -- at least, of my universe -- tends to push back harder when it's pushed.

Pay more attention.
