thinking about raz and how immortality made him into the worst person he could be
he's shallow and cruel and deeply afraid. others' lives are a blink of an eye and are all but meaningless- but he clings desperately to his own life and assigns it the greatest value, above all else because it's his. and in a similar manner, he assigns value to his quads because they're his, and even following the relationship they still hold value to him because they were his.
he craves simplicity and that makes him dismissive and careless, willing to feed his own memories to horrorterrors because he can't cope with his own eternal lifespan and fears the emotional complexity of it more than he fears forgetting.
