1 century later : Still rolls the toilet paper down

So it's a reverse Spice and Wolf? (Where the human is the one concerned with the other's longevity?)

Well yea, I mean, beside the practicality of it (The mortal dying before the immortal), there's also the social aspect - it's fine when you're both looking your age, but once he's become a 50-year old guy, society will raise eyebrows at him being romatically involved with what looks like a 16-year old girl.

Guess she's in cat mode forever then. JUST AS PLANNED.

Ah, well that sets in stone a sad ending.

somewhere in between "it's so over" and "we are so back"

 

[rkkn]

is she actually 9999 years old and just pretending to be dumb?

 

[Beregorn]

Are we doing this 900 year old loli thing again?

Not necessarily: immortal doesn't mean old. She is going to school, and from tbe discussion it seems they are not completely sure of what her bloodline will actually result into... So, even if she is immortal, she is still a high school girl: the problem would be what will happen 80 years for now...

Thanks for the chapter.

Some bad takes on immortality in this thread.

"She's going to outlive him! And have to mourn him!"
Everyone you don't outlive outlives you instead. Everyone you don't mourn lives to mourn you instead. There's no upside; someone is getting stuck with the pain no matter what. Mortality sucks.

"It guarantees a sad ending!"
See previous. Most relationships have a sad ending by this standard. Few couples die at the same time.

I can tell you all from personal experience that you don't have to stop making new friends and lovers just because you've experienced loss. It's not a requirement to mope forever.

When you pulled out a 'just kidding' card like this, you're making me with the last chap comment a jerk then

Nah, this character is the jerk while he continues to dangle his redemption card just out of reach.
