"Daddy, I wanna be in your jacket! I wanna take a picture with you!" Yeah, I'm still very sick, but she can always make me smile. And man, if you miss these moments, you don't get them back.

A few more words here: Most of my mutuals know I lost my two adult sons--one to sudden respiratory illness, and exactly one year and two months later, lost the other one to suicide. I was not on good terms with either of them at the time, because I made a lot of mistakes with them, and all three of us were too stubborn and demanding to reach out after arguments. To be clear, it was MY job to reach out. And I didn't.

Based on that situation, I have some unsolicited advice for you.

If you have a kid, and that kid wants your attention, then if at all possible (I know sometimes it's not), and no matter how tired or shitty you're feeling, you drop whatever you're doing, and you give them the attention they want. You're not "spoiling" them; you're teaching them that they're important to you. If you're doing something you CAN'T drop, tell them when they can have your attention, and follow through on it.

And if you have older kids who have maybe lost their temper and said things they shouldn't have (and/or vice versa), dont wait for an apology. Reach out to them and let them know you love them. I will go to my grave wishing I had done so, and I would give my right arm for one more day with either or both of my sons.

Since those terrible days, I have on several occasions come so close to death that I can tell you what detergent she uses to wash her robes (it's Tide Free, by the way), and I can promise you that when you're dying, no matter how much time you've spent with your kids, you will wish it had been more.

Speaking to the main series it kinda rubs me the wrong way that Setrakus Ra is Loric. Just the fact that the villain leads a genocide against his own people and completely destroys his home.

Like there is no group I can think of whose genocide has been spearheaded by a member of that group. Which makes the decision to make leader of a genocide a member of the victimized group…odd at best.

Reflecting on it, IAN4 isn’t the only series to make this choice (which makes it a different kind of issue - what’s with this trope? Why are people telling it?). But the other series I can think of does a good job of explaining why the person started persecuting his own ethnic/racial group once he came to power that stems from his desire to hold power and prevent an even worse evil from happening and nothing to do with outright hating his racial group.

I admit it’s been awhile since I read the IAN4 books but I can’t remember a compelling reason in the main series for this man to not just turn against but exterminate his own race. So it just ends up coming off victim-blame-y. Especially when you see Nine’s anger that Pittacus didn’t stop Setrakus. It made it seem like they could have avoided the destruction of the planet, which is the exact opposite of what it should have been. Since there’s that prophesy the planet would be destroyed it should have seemed like the Loric were doomed to a fate no one could change.

I would be interested in knowing more about the lore around this. Is there a completely different reading of the situation if you read the novellas?
