that's what i was going to say!

finish that... sentence! Another meme about judging others. This one is as easy as they come: someone top-levels by starting a sentence, and people tag in with how they'd finish it. Examples might look like: Love is... My day isn't complete without... Every relationship needs... Sentence starters can be silly or serious. Is there a better way to get to know someone than by seeing where their mind goes? I think not! how to play — top-level with a statement sans an ending.  — other characters tag in with how they'd finish it. judgement and questions follow.  — that's it, nice and simple.

Never. I'd do anything for them.

[ridofthethrone]

Is your pack only made of kin, or does it include those who become close to you?

[pluviosus]

{ He looks thoughtful, but only for a moment. }

Both, I think. But only if the others accept that person, too, and usually they do.

[ridofthethrone]

I ask because I wondered if you ever had to choose between your pack and someone else you cared for. But if they accept the people you do, it doesn't sound as if there would be any such conflict. It seems your 'pack' includes everyone you care for.

[pluviosus]

Oh ... { A pause while he scrunches his nose. } I think ... If it ever came down to that, and it was someone they didn't accept, I'd choose them.

[ridofthethrone]

Your pack?

[pluviosus]

Yeah, I can't imagine choosing someone over them. No one can be that important.

[ridofthethrone]

They're lucky to have such intense loyalty. It's a rare thing.

[pluviosus]

The more I talk to people, the more I learn that we are pretty lucky. But it's not really a hard choice. They're all I have.

[ridofthethrone]

From how you speak, it seems they're all you need. Would you want anything else? Anything more?

[pluviosus]

I don't think so. I mean, I have a home where everything's provided without question. I have a cool job, if you can even call it a job. I have my pack.

What about you?

[ridofthethrone]

I am devoted to my queen and country.

[He tips his head and admits,] Like you, it's a simple choice for me. Made simpler by the fact that the queen is also my sister, my only living family.

[pluviosus]

Oh! So you get it, then.

[ridofthethrone]

I think so. I've never described anything as my 'pack' though. If there's nuance there than I'm missing, I'm unaware of it.
