prince_of_tidesEverybody who keeps going on about how stupid it is to get attached to people in this place and then get upset when they go away?
Shut up.
Yeah, maybe you're right, maybe it is stupid, but it can't be stopped. Nobody can help getting attached to others, especially under the sort of pressure this place puts on people. You want soldiers who don't get attached? Then find a way to send us all home and replace us with robots or something.
It oughta be obvious by now that a lot of us weren't picked for how useful we'd be in a war - just from the number of kids who get brought here apart from anything else. So if you don't like the fact that we're not all perfect emotionless automatons, suck it up. It's not going to change.

I'm going to keep my opinion about it to myself, personally. It's mixed, and it's no reason to argue senselessly with you or anyone else.
