Billy so mysterious
"He knew it was going to crash, but he didn't want to make a fool of himself by saying so."(154) Billy now understands how things really are. He seems he is close to understanding everything tralfamadorians say. His time traveling makes him understand how he should ask and that even if he told the people in the airplane that the plane was going to crash they probably would stay in the plane and die or die afterwords because it was supposed to be like that. The people in that crash were supposed to die. "So it goes." Every time somebody dies in the book Billy says so it goes because he know that even-though at that moment they are dead they live in many other moments. I think that we humans should see death this way because although people cease to exist, they are saved in our memories by all those moments we lived together with them. What really intrigues me is why billy survives the multiple death experiences he faces and why he doesn't die. I know that according to the book he will die when he is supposed to but then why does he faces death so many times. It is as if he was so close to death but not close enough. If he is not supposed to die why does so many bad things happen to him. Billy is very strange and mysterious. It is as if he had fate against him, but at the same time by his side. In this book so many people die that are very close to Billy, living the same things he lives but he keeps on his journey while they die on his path. I feel bad for Billy war is not a pace for somebody like him. He seems so weak. His pink toga, his silver boots his long beard, all this makes me imagine billy as vulnerable poor guy. He seems so weak but I think he does this because he knows that he is not meant to die at war.He doesn't care if what he does is dangerous or not.
