[the fuck is an arge]

. . .

It sounds like he's trying, at least. [Rean Schwarzer is a mess] Doing what he believes is right, even if it's. . .

[well]

[working for a shitty government]

[voidbreaker]

[ wiggly zemurian bs spirit fingers ]

Having a martyr complex is a pain in the ass for everyone around you, just fyi.

[ yeah well.

rean schwarzer. his heart's in the right place but he left his entire brain back in the infernal castle when crow accidentally got made absent from the plot for a while. ]

Not entirely sure why he keeps jumping when they ask him to, but he probably thinks he can single handedly help everyone if he get involved with the government's crap.

[survivaltricks]

[this is exactly how I felt all throughout the ending of tocs3]

That's not how it works. Nobody can do everything by themselves.

[voidbreaker]

[ tocs is just a very complicated story about a boy who loses his boyfriend then finds him hanging out on rooftops being Edgy and gets weirdly defensive about believing it’s Him, send tweet. ]

Yeah, try telling him that.

[ anyway, don’t put a martyr in a Special Mecha ]

Normal soldats are pretty fun to pilot though. Less getting laser focused on by the government too.

[survivaltricks]

[press like]

But still part of their whole system. [hm. . .] You know. . . I don't think you ever told me why you decided to go to military school.

[he gave some sort of vague response but Akira didn't press at the time]

[voidbreaker]

...

[ haha! ]

A little Scarecrow persuaded me it was a good idea.

It got a few people off my back as well, but whether it was a good decision or not I don’t know.

[survivaltricks]

Scarecrow. . .?

[THAT MEANS NOTHING TO HIM]

I guess it's hard to say, when so much about your future is still up in the air.

[considering attempted assassination]

[voidbreaker]

Scarecrow.

[ it's fine. ]

Guess I did find out some of the crap I was looking for. Roundabout way of doing it, but given the fact this whole thing has layers under, on and over its layers... I might not have found out shit otherwise.

[survivaltricks]

Was it stuff about. . . Hamel?

[voidbreaker]

That was the carrot he dangled, yeah.

[survivaltricks]

[hah]

[. . . he doesn't know if he likes this Scarecrow guy, and it shows in the way his gaze narrows, even if he doesn't say anything]

[voidbreaker]

[ valid ]

Don't worry, I got around to telling him where to go eventually.

[survivaltricks]

[a small quirk of his lips]

At least there's that. He sounds like he deserved it.

[voidbreaker]

Hm.

Question for ya, which is worse: someone who does something unspeakably crap, or someone who is so desperate to make up for someone else doing something crap that they do worse shit than whoever they were trying to atone for the first place?

[survivaltricks]

[yikes]

. . . what a loaded question.

[voidbreaker]

[ a little drily: ]

I can vouch for the “unspeakably crap” part being unspeakably crap, don’t worry.

[survivaltricks]

Yeah. I don't doubt you.

[it's just hard to tell who is worse in that situation]

[voidbreaker]

So.

Which would you say is worse? [ he’s just curious. ]

[survivaltricks]

I wouldn't.

[???]

I don't think something like that can be ranked, you know. . .? Though the good intentions pain the latter in a better light overall.

[voidbreaker]

Hmm.



I think it makes them pitiable. And I don't plan on letting them run from all the shit they've had their hands in, trying to make up for someone else's mistake.

[survivaltricks]

[. . . Akira nods]

You're right. They shouldn't get a free pass due to noble intentions.

They need to face what they've done and accept the consequences for it.

[voidbreaker]

Yeah, well. When they're done messing with everyone else's shit, I'm gonna cash in my right to make them face up to it.

[survivaltricks]

Good.

You deserve it.

[voidbreaker]

[ huh.




... well. ]

Assuming I'm quick enough to escape whatever shit's waiting immediately back home.
