What's a reasonable amount of time to stay angry with someone?

[ There is a fairly obvious difference between Alistair's I have a serious question voice and I am trying to cause trouble voice, for those who know him, but in this case his tone falls somewhere between the two. ]

Obviously it depends on what they've done to make you angry, so let's talk about the full range. How long can I stay angry with someone for borrowing my sword without permission before I'm unreasonable?

Or what if they left everyone I cared about to die?

Just for discussion's sake.

Huh.

[ He considers this for a moment. ]

Sounds imaginary.

[ For the record, he's teasing. ]

[It sounds like she's making a face.]

...for the record, so do nugs if you're not from here.

[If it weren't a joke, she'd have picked something other than nugs.]

Health risks aside ... no one can tell you it's time to stop being angry, especially not about something that serious. Obviously I'm not from here, I don't know the details. But it's up to you. I've just seen people I care about make themselves their own collateral damage.

You can see nugs. They aren't invisible things inside you.

[ So there. ]

I'm sorry. About your people, I mean.

[youwonscience]

Thanks. Me too. [A short pause, then:] ...mostly about the second part, though I'm sure it was an awesome sword. But I think how you feel is up to you, as long or short as it needs to be.

...for the record, still don't condone poisoning anyone, though I've definitely met people who would deserve it.
