Richard just nods.
<That kinda...sucks, actually.>

52652
((Gerard?))

<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.>

52654
<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.>

52655
<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.>

52656
<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.

Even Anima might be interesting to see. The bits we do know are that she was Greek or lived in Ancient Greece, and that she has some sort of relative from the Middle East, and that someone important to her died. That's it, really.>

52657
<It would be more interesting if we got some character driven drama instead of this.

And I'd rather it was someone apart from Selina who gets some self-doubt for a change, at least.>

52658
Richard wanders around.

((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.

But why that wou- on second thought, don't. The possibilities are simultaneously too scary and too disgusting to talk about.>

52660
<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.>

52661
<He has to get permission, from a judge, without duress. Killing the Fae associated wouldn't work.

Oh, and said judge will probably say no, seeing as he blew up an entire city, starting with a school.


And hang on. Why would DARNOS want to free the same guy who nearly collapsed a city on him? And everyone else nearby? You'd think setting free someone that stupid would at least trigger survival instincts.>

52662
<You underestimate us.
Good.>

<Nah. You underestimate the genre savvy of the same universe that has the school teaching students how to be genre savvy.>

52663
<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.>

52664
<Wrong thread.>

((I'll probably start a new arc around the weekend. I've got my hands full with the summons overhauling and schoolwork.

Not helping when I have a bunch of neat freaks breathing down my neck at every opportunity.))

"No problem, darling. Just be a bit cleaner next time, okay?"
She smiles.
