It was another one of those moments where Nokosi was attempting to say something profound she could see it in his posture, in the way he thought carefully about what he was going to say. She couldn't help but be sort of enraptured in what he was saying, and usually had a counterargument, or at least, a way to reinforce her point of view.

"I don't think anyone ought to change to suit someone else's needs either. I think you should still be yourself, but be open to think about someone else's way of living. For instance, Ronnae and certain family member's are more intimate in a way I could never imagine myself to be with my family. Yet since being on this ship, I've come to know that other universes and other words are governed by their own rules and will allow some things others will not."

And she shook her head "And see, that's the thing I find hard to get. Why is it so hard to believe that one has a different way of thinking than another person? Yes, I understand that those differences can be extreme, even taboo in some cases, but they don't have them specifically to annoy or bother someone else! They exist to remind us that life, wherever it is, whatever form it takes, is precious and honored in many different ways. If I have to get used to someone else's way of being because its different from mine, is it so hard to do? Do I have to demand they change because they offend me? And if I am stronger somehow, is it necessary I bend them to my will, simply so I can feel superior?"
