Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

But you didn't expect everyone else to follow suit.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I thought Epona might.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

You did what you thought was best. You tried to protect as many lives as you could.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

And killed 'em all in the process.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

You didn't. Kyriakos did.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I should have known better. I know games, it's what I grew up with, and I....didn't even think it could....

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

Had you been in many games like that before?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

It's my life.

My entire life is one big Game.

Win. Win the Game or Paradox Space will kill you dead.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

What would you have done if some other team had confessed first?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Only Epona could, only two wolves, and they weren't gonna.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

How do you would have felt if your team and Epona held out until the end and won the game? Wouldn't that victory have been worse?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...I don't know.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

Why's that?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

'cause I don't know if I can kill.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

Then the option you took was the only option you had. Wasn't it?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

....

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

That isn't a bad thing. You wanted to do what you thought was best, right? You couldn't have predicted what happened. Ultimately, it still was this place that killed everyone. Not you.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I...

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

Yes?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I...I can't....

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

Can't...?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I can't just...let it go....

I....I fucked up. I fucked up so badly.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

I'm not telling you to let it go. But it still isn't your fault.

Did people blame you for it?

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...no.

Re: RAGE

[forthemackerel]

But you blame yourself.

[ looks down ]

I felt it. In that memory just now. That desire to be found out. That you tried. If I said "you shouldn't feel like that," it's just ignoring how you're feeling, right?

I just don't want you hurting.
