...sending flowers for all eternity.

Infinity is so intimidating. If it's real, I can only imagine a sleep, awake cycle, birth and death and rebirth. Or some impossible to fathom state of being.

The idea of sending flowers for all eternity is quite depressing; imagine repeating that process: dying and then reviving, over and over again, only to repeat the process for all of eternity.

Uh, I just realized I placed the "flower found" and "flower not found" bit in the flowchart reversed. Should be fixed now.

Thanks for the translation, it is an interesting concept indeed. Half-way through I thought that those two immortals would stay as friends together and not die, or the second joins the first one in her labyrinth. It is rare in media that suicide of an immortal is taken this serious .

The zombification machine from page 21 is quite awful to be honest, just mindlessly spinning in place. What they choose is nice for exchanging flowers, but I would get pretty frustrated with the idea of putting myself in an endless cycle of meaningless wandering. I guess I would go with the hypersleep pod, since it's the closest thing to actual death.

I was thinking, feel like the diagram of life stages should have three suicidal periods instead of two, where the first one is part of the multiple life cycle.

Like I figure that everyone has a fairly large pool of things that could potentially make like worth living for them, such that an alpha immortal would go through a bunch of cycles of trying to find a way to die and instead encountering something to live for before getting to the point where nothing can bring them back
