Chapitre 9: We, of Different Realities
We, of Different Realities
An audio record player?
You really have all sorts of things in this station of yours…
~.~♥︎˙
"Morpho, do you believe in love?"
"..."
"Yes."
"...Why do you think so?"
"..."
"Simply because I have seen it.
"..."
"You have also seen it."
"...However, I have never felt it. Just like you. How could you believe it is real?"
"How could you not doubt that something is real when you cannot experience something that others around you have always experienced?"
"A concept may not exist in the reality of another but if it exists in another reality, then that cannot just simply be ignored."
"Then, is it real for you?"
"No."
"Then how, Reaper?"
"You really…"
"You know and I know that you already understand it, obstinate worldwatcher."
"Hehehe…but we're recording, stoic reaper :)"
"Love of any kind is an individual experience which everyone has a philosophy towards, even you. You do not believe it is real or you doubt that it is real,"
"However, this is the same for others, especially those who have an attraction to others. Other civilizations are capable of romantic love and attraction or at least a big fraction of their species can. This affects their perception towards it, because it is rampant compared to our world, "
"In our world, we rarely talk about such things. We don't even talk about it all. However, we interact and still form some type of relationships—"
"Just like ours? A QPR ;D"
"..."
"It is along that, yes…"
"..."
"In a sense, I know that romantic love exists simply because I have the ability to empathize and perceive it. I understand it, despite my lack of experience towards it. I can put myself into another species' position and simulate the feeling but that does not mean I experience love myself."
"To put it simply, it exists. Therefore, you believe it. Hmmm…I see."
"So would you say you are quite a very imaginative and empathetic individual since you can simulate the feeling of love? Do you ever lose yourself in that feeling?"
"No."
"Aww..why not."
"Because I am not from that reality, I do not have the same philosophy and yearning they have for romance. It is enjoyable at times to ponder how it could feel—blushing, heart racing, butterflies, and lingering. However, I will always go back here. Not just because I like it but because fundamentally, I won't even be able to feel anything like it."
"This is simply because I am, as they call it in other universes, 'aromantic'."
"You have the ability to simulate it unlike me. You've really never wanted to feel it or experience a romantic relationship at least once? "
"Not once."
"So decisive :P. Even when all other universes except ours desire it? Why?"
"Because I am not, in the first place, capable of it and I accept that. It is the truth. There is nothing wrong with our civilizations not being able to love."
"Truly, there is nothing wrong with it."
"How could there be something wrong? It is such a cruel condition to reduce an entire species to their ability to love or reproduce."
"Oh, is that what we were doing? We're reducing these civilizations to their 'non-aromanticism'. Is that what they call it?"
"...Yes, I guess."
"How about you?"
"Same thoughts, same thoughts. I love being in a non-romantic relationship and having none at all <2"
"It truly is a cruel condition. Much more when some individuals embody 'heartlessness' or even develop possessiveness over it."
"..."
"I will be leaving."
"Aww!!! But alright then. Goodbye, reaper."
"—"
"To more of us who come from different realities, we might have suffered the cruel condition and we might be labeled as "cruel" humans...beings: heartless, indifferent, robotic, or mentally ill just for simply being unable to love…. But me and my radio broadcast partner here would simply just like to broadcast…."
"....we don't really care about all of that."
