Which sounds more appealing to you

@Masterkey

Death into a place where I wpuldn't mind being immortal. I don't like the idea of just ending. I would like to live on, but not on this earth…

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

I agree with @Masterkey.

@ravens

Death, tbh. Immortality sounds fun and all at first, but when you think about it, being alive for all of freaking eternity while everyone grows up around you does not sound that appealing to me.

@queen.of.awkward

Death, because if you're immortal then you would have to deal with seeing all of your friends and family grow old and die, while you stay young and have continue on for eternity without them.

Death. I mean I already want to die but from the perspective of the small part of me that doesn't want to, I would hate having to see all my family, friends, and pets grow old and die. Also, this poses the question of would I be invincible? Like would we never die because we couldn't get hurt enough to? Or would it be that we couldn't die unless we were injured enough to?

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

I wrote a story once where the main character was immortal unless she died of old age or a natural ailment. It took me so long to figure out how to kill her off :D

@Masterkey

Immortal "unless she died of old age"? Isn't that just a normal person?

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

Immortal was the wrong word.

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

She’s more “invincible” I guess

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

It wasn’t a very good story :)

@Masterkey

Oh haha. Whenever I think of immortal beings I think of Tolkien's elves. They aren't technically immortal because they can get sick or be killed, but they can live for thousands of years. They technically "die" of old age when they journey to the West (aka elf heaven) and never return.

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

Ehehe yep. One of my friends is newly obsessed with Lord of the Rings (mostly Legolas) so I’m newly acquainted with that bit of knowledge

@Masterkey

I love LOTR… I read all three books for the first time when I was ten years old. Didn't really understand 75% of it, but it was still interesting enough to keep me reading it somehow.

@CWTurtleOfFreedom

Lol

@WolfieVampire1946

Death, I wouldn't want to be immortal because everyone I know would die without me, and I would probably go insane with grief.

@Mindful_Bison

Death. If I were immortal, I would go insane with loss and tragedy after losing everyone, try to kill myself, fail to, and become more insane because of that

Immortality through death!

@Mindful_Bison

I'd be like a really sad Deadpool

Bet you didn't see that coming…

What you gon' do?

@Masterkey

I already said that shuriken XD

@Lord_Dunconius

Immortality, because there's usually something to live for. Death is too final. Too decisive. I'd keep on in this life because I know this place. I want to live so many lives, and so many ways, and I can't do that in the span of a hundred-odd years.

My message may sound the same as yours, 'key old pal, but it's different… I just didn't think I'd have to explain…

I mean my legacy will far proceed me in terms of lifespan… Plus, ALSO all that afterlife jazz as well…

@Masterkey

Ah, so you meant your legacy would be immortal

And my soul too!

@Masterkey

Right, right :P
