let him have feelings.
he's not a fish.

He'd be so much quieter if he was...
Why couldn't you have been obsessed with fish instead?

i like fish.
will you buy me one?

Linear trade, kid.
You want fish you have to give up the bird first.

fish don't even do anything.
they won't be in the way.

They still eat. They still take up space.
Bird or fish. One or the other.

what about just one fish?

One fish and no bird? Sure.

i'm keeping the bird.

Then no fish.

i hate you.

You don't. You only wish you did.

i know more about what i feel than you do.

As the eldest I know the most. Even about your feelings.

as the eldest you're the closest to death. that's it.

Death is just people reaching the limit of their knowledge.

[ Technically not untrue. People won't be learning any more after, that's for sure. ]

that sounds like something an idiot would say.

See if this idiot buys you snacks when he goes shopping later this week.

you have to feed me that's your one job.

I don't have to feed you anything you like though.
