act 1::scene 1

did you know?

that the nature of the dead is to forbid the living. and the nature of the living is to forbid the dead.and at the end of all things there is nothing but hurt children hurting children growing up to be grown wolves tearing cubs apartand all the human beings watching the wolves rip wolves apartAND BREAKING AND SHATTERING ALREADY-BROKEN HEARTS.

you are my best friend, qian zhouyu.

千咒语

i won't lie.there are times i wish i was a human being, and therefore lovable, and not whatever unfounded soaring beast of a nonpareil i am,so i could be loved by you.

i survived a massacre.

i survived a massacre.

...

i survived a massacre.

...

twice.

THE THING IS...

I CAN NEVER BE QUITE SURE, FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, WHO BELIEVES ME, OR IF IT IS BETTER OR WORSE IF THEY DO OR DO NOT.

but the one thing i can be sure of?

IT'S THAT NOTHING IS EXEMPT FROM

RESURRECTION

except for that which is exempt from

RESURRECTION

RESURRECTION

RESURRECTION

RESURRECTION

AND THE NATURE OF IT?
WHERE THE GODS LIE?
as in all things.

it is that...if there is a such thing as a category of HUMAN BEING: THEN THERE MUST BE AN ANTITHESIS, AN ANTIHUMAN, A NONHUMAN, an inhuman thing.

AN INHUMAN THING?

WHY NOW, THAT COULD BE:

A MONSTER

OR A GOD

to be a god requires monstrous power. and to be a monster requires playing god. and to be human requires being an 一般人; 堅気, because non-katagi are inhuman objects and devices and devicers. an ippanjin is an ordinary person, and to be katagi is to work in a RESPECTABLE PROFESSION, that is to say, to work in a "respectable occupation (i.e. not yakuza, prostitute, etc.)"and you know if you know, if you know then you know, a curse knows a curse, and I, YUE XIANMING, THE WORST OF THE WORST!know that i am a whore, and therefore a sex toy, a vessel for envy, and not a human being at all.moreover, i have never been.since i was a child bride on an altar, taken.

IF THERE IS A SUCH THING AS A HUMAN BEING, there must also be in-human beings, such as monsters and gods, but also whores and hitmen. MANY VIOLENCERS REMAIN HUMAN, and there's the thing.some violencers are encouraged and permitted by society. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. you know who they are. if you do not recognize the true meaning of ENFORCER then you do not deserve the truth of a victim, who you will not believe anyway.but VIOLENCED::VIOLENCER by profession...whores::hitmenare often, or perhaps not often, but can quite understandably be the same human being.a DEVICE can also be a DEVICER.what does that mean?IT MEANS THAT...in the world below, a smashed vase for envy can resurrect and smash vases.an egg that has been smashed to bits, YOLK SPILLED! by either violence or neglect...an egg rolling off the shelf...CAN RESURRECT!and hatch, rather than its egg turning black with a chick that did not survive it (the egg), and that chick that hatches from a dead egg is a RESURRECTION,and must teach itself how to live, because it is motherless.AND SO! the chick that hatches from a broken egg may go on to smash other eggs, but it also may go on to guide other abandoned eyasses and raise them to be soaring hawks...OR TO GIVE THEM THE CHANCE TO BE!which is all to say...a DEVICE, such as a giant mecha robot, or a knife, can also be a DEVICER, like UNIT-01, in a manner of speaking, or a knife can be metonymic of the person wielding it.someone's PAWN in a gambit can also be A HUMAN BEING. such truths can be true simultaneously.

what i mean to say by all of this is...

what i mean to say by all of this is...

what i mean to say by all of this is...

it is that a loveless child can grow up to be a beloved pet, monster, or god, but it is rare for those children who have truly been starved of a single rice grain of affection to ever become human beings.but there are more animals in the world than human things, and such children can also grow to become wolf cubs that become wolves guiding wolf cubs...or sly and domestic house cats...or serpents sleeping in the grass, never to wake...or field mice roaming meadows.

THERE ARE MORE ANIMALS IN THE WORLD


THAN HUMAN BEINGS.


and it is not a damnation not to be a human being.
