Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

You do have me there. Then perhaps I should say that it is your wording I am concerned with, and the amount of violence implied. Do you truly think I would offer such resistance that I will need to be "torn down"?

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Allow me to counter with a question. What level of crime would I need to commit before you would actively prevent its success?

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[HM,,,,

He stays silent, staring at the machine thoughtfully... before moving to try and pick up another plushie. God, why are you such a drag, Emet.]

I am not quite certain what you mean by crime. But I would say that the main line I draw is hurting people who do not deserve it or have no chance of fighting back. Of course, there are once again considerations of the reason why you would do so, of how you yourself view your deeds. As I've told Five, while I do not approve of the things he had to do to save his world, I understand and accept that there was no other feasible way for him. And a good part of why I understand and accept it is because he, too, does not take particular joy in it.

[Annnnd plushie get! It's probably Vergil.]

[If the plush doesn't have a tail bow, Emet will find something suitable to ensure it does have one. Accessories are important!

And why? Well, because he is, unfortunately.]

Five does have quite the disadvantage, but his heart is ever in the right place. And are you saying you would not oppose Five had you the opportunity?

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[JUST LET HIM GET HIS PLUSHIES.... GOD............. RNG says it does have the tail bow!! Very good merch here.]

...I'm uncertain as to what you mean by disadvantage?

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

An entire organization exists to keep the timeline in check. That the apocalypse is meant to happen. That would keep events so that the would lose all, including his beloved family.

Quite admiral, isn't it? That he would stand against all that. But to run in head to head would lead to ruin. Thus he is forced to take paths less ideal.

But can you imagine shouldering such alone? I wouldn't be able to.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[He stays quiet for a time, digesting this.]

...I likely would not be able to, either. I already cannot handle many things here, while others weather them much more easily.

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Externally they weather it, but that doesn't mean the scars are not left. He does fall back to that survival, self-reliant nature as it was his means for quite some time.

Truthfully, no one should be forced to handle what is thrown at us here. So do not fault yourself.

[He does motion at the plush.]

Are you going to name is Ligrev?

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[He opens his mouth to comment, but--]

Ligrev?

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Upon his arrival, Vergil participated in a live and used the name to hide his identity. It was quite endearing actually.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[Oh my god............. adorable. Levity can't help grinning at that.]

Ah, I'm beginning to understand. I misspelled his name the other night because I was drunk, and he said that was a "new one" and thanked me for it.

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Then perhaps you could name it that. I'm sure you would enjoy the inside joke.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

Only if Vergil knows about this, and it embarrasses him. Though I was originally planning on giving it to either Cosmo or Nero.

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

How thoughtful.

Is there anything you wanted for yourself?

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[Hmm...]

... I'm not sure. Most of my relationships at the moment are either too complicated or not developed enough for me to get toys of others.

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Truly? Perhaps you think too deeply.

Why not a small collection of Future is Now stickers. Or perhaps those you've simply enjoyed spending time with.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[Hmmm--]

Oh, maybe one of Nero! We only really met last night, but we've really hit it off. Oh, and maybe Glory too...

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

There we are. If we meant to be idols and stuck here we might as well make the most of it. Indulging in small trinkets is hardly a vice.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[He smiles, a little sadly.]

Well, it's not as though I see it as a vice. It's more that right now there aren't many people I feel entirely comfortable with keeping trinkets of.

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Too many painful memories?

What of Cardinal, Lily, or perhaps Vergil. A collection of those whom you met on your first day.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

Mmm... A feeling of my own inadequacy is perhaps the better way to put it. As I've told you, I've made up with Ardyn, so I do not hold a grudge. But it's simply complicated.

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Time will help. Creating pleasant memories to offset the negative ones.

Do you know how to play chess?

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[...]

I did learn for him.

[his RELATIONSHIP DRAMA,]

Re: Day 335

[firstworldproblem]

Truthfully, I'm looking for activities you can do together that would be relaxing and pleasant, but if you would like me to desist, I can.

Re: Day 335

[weenwoon]

[He fiddles with the machine controls for a while.]

I... do want to see him. I just don't know if it is yet a good idea or not.

[Isn't it weird how he feels kind of nauseous when thinking about Absinthe, they made up, things should be fine,]

Serenity has helped me with the memory, but... I still cannot predict how exactly I would react. We spoke after the game the other day, in fact, but... I was not exactly in a regular state at the time.
