Nothing wrong with that!

[ Maglor laughs ]

Live as long as I do, and I'm sure you'd learn far more.

Mags, I'm surprised I've lived as long as I have. Kinda been livin on borrowed time as is. Didn't think I'd ever get this close to my 20s.

[Truthfully he'd honestly believed he would die in the war, that he'd never see a single day of the peacetime they so desperately fought for. And he knew the others felt the same.]

Think the chances of living as long as you is near impossible!

[He was just a normal human guy after all. Nothing special or magical about him.]

[ Something like grief crosses his face ]

You deserve to live a very long time, Duo.

[ He'd give him eternity in his place, if he could ]

[Duo shrugged. Honestly, if he was back home he'd argue the point. He didn't think he deserved to live a long time. He'd done a lot of bad, very bad things in his short life and was known for getting the people closest to him killed.

But since being here he'd found love. He'd found a reason. He'd found friends who seemed to have the ability to live for a long time and could maybe avoid his little grim reapers curse.

Even still, there was a part of him that struggled with that idea that he deserved to live when so many others had died... Duo knew how that sounded. And so he just smiled at Maglor.]


Who knows? Better not to challenge the Powers That Be, Mags. But for now? I kinda like the life I've got.

[ Maglor reaches over to ruffle Duo's hair ]

I'm glad. And I hope you live long and happily, whether here or there.
