man. thinking about how aegis is only aegis because of alita and they. left her to die
#aegis. learned how to be a person because they knew alita. because they heard alita's stories#because she called them her friend because she didn't blame them for not being ezra#they. if the chosen had been anyone but alita they would've been anyone but aegis. they might not've become a person at all#and that's. what they were really thanking her for on the train. it wasn't just the stories it was. themself. three people built aegis.#and they're all dead. and they had a hand in all three of their deaths even if like for the king it was a small one#it is. they would kill durandal even though durandal helped build them they would kill the king even though he built them and. they left#alita to die even though she's why they're anyone at all#and they knew she would die if they left. they knew they weren't leaving her with a chance.#and they still don't regret it because they're. alive. more than anything else alita taught them how to love being alive#the difference between wanting to live because of being scared of death and wantinglive because they Want To Live was. alita. she gave#that to them. i don't even really know where i'm going with this i just. man. she sure was the chosen.#the thing is that. they would have counted living as worth it even if the king had won and they'd had to be terrified forever.#they would have held just as tight they would have been just as grateful for the chance they were given#but they. there is so little to be afraid of. they wake up every morning and they can. go outside and look at the sky.#arion came to them after five years. it took five years for xem to be able to forgive them but they. maybe they will have a friend again.#someone else to learn from.#there is no one in this village who had ever seen their first body and there will be no one in the next or the next or the next#i can't even. i'm not even capable of Imagining the joy they feel for it all#she gave them such a gift......#maybe they take her name. maybe eventually they are aegis nikolaev. a name from the king and their other half and a name from the girl they#left to die even though she gave them life. maybe.#i am so unbelievably grateful and lucky that i got to play this game and this character with other players and a dm who Let me play this#game and this character.....#i just. man. game of all time. 4/6 dead and we Won. and aegis gets to live for decades yet.#dnd blogging#campaign: magic sword#character: aegis
