[He's been mulling this over since he met Hannibal, really.]

What was the first turning point in your life? Do you even remember who your real heroes were, when you were a kid? Or maybe some people do actually idolize their parents. For me, the only idols are the ones who can't become real, but it's been pointed out to me before that it's possible to worship someone in spite of their faults.

My entire society, everything...I was surrounded by. There was one thing to be and one thing only.

[velocette]

What was that one thing?

[soliterraneous]

A good soldier.

[velocette]

That's a real strict thing to be. Being a soldier crushes out a lot of the rest of you--least it has for all the soldiers I've met.

[soliterraneous]

There didn't used to be more of 'me' to be, or at least that is what I imagined.

[velocette]

You sound like you found more here.

[soliterraneous]

I'm not sure 'found' is accurate. They always existed. But I had other things to focus on, and now those things are gone.
