small failures

  I suffer somewhat upon the emotional scale anytime one of my re-animated corpses bites the dust. Or maybe I should say 're-bites' the dust, considering they were corpses before I re-animated them. 
  Mostly it's an ego thing. It's not like I see them as my children, it's more like the agonized puppeteer whose star marionette suffers string tangles or breakage in the middle of a performance.   
   However - the puppeteer doesn't have the problem of his puppets intentionally breaking loose for the purpose of running roughshod over first the audience and then by turn the countryside.
