<Now imagine if you were like that from birth, not knowing exactly wen you'll die but sure that your life would be cut sort... tell me, if in that case, if you had the choice, would you just lie there and die slowly? With no obligations, no commitments just meditating and introspecting? Or would you rather burn yourself out, face greater hardship and misery, face the burden of obligations and cut your life shorter just to have something resembling that pathetically cliched and oh so pointless idea of a life?><Personally, the latter.>
<Then I'll start with mine. Tell me, per chance, have you ever been in a situation where you thought that you would undoubtedly die? Where you could do nothing but watch the seconds tick by?><Yes.>
<Not much happened in my past, unless spending a significant portion of my life in hospital undergoing tests and waiting to die counts. Then again, I become more philosophical than upset about such matters...><I'd elaborate on mine. But then I'd get all angsty.>
<Is this where I'm supposed to suddenly burst into tears in a paroxysm of emotion or equivalent reaction whilst some sort of hitherto unknown past trauma is revealed?><No. Although exploring Yuri, or your past, even, might be interesting.
((Why are we simply assuming that Darnos intends to free him and let him run amok? I mean, for all we know, he might be planning to drag him out of prison and use the continuous electric shocks as some sort of power supply unit.))<Good point.
<I wasn't there, remember? But trust me, it works. All Gerard has to do is mention it IC.><You'd think someone like Darnos wouldn't free an idiot who blew up a city BY ACCIDENT. And then attempted to run.>
<You underestimate us.<Nah. You underestimate the genre savvy of the same universe that has the school teaching students how to be genre savvy.>
Good.>
<Teamwork. Well that and holding my captors captive forcing them to make me legally free or I'll blow them up><Good luck with that. Short of the idiot ball being held by EVERYONE, you're not getting out.>
