Tell Me Why...

[crysteel-future.livejournal.com]

Since everything in the world begs questions, and we would all love to have answers to the "Why"s...and we can't always have those answers. However, on the meatship crack-comm, we can. I thought that this meme would be stimulating for the brain and considerability of our persons.

The game is simple:

1. Post a comment of your character accepting/not-accepting-but-making-due-with being part of the meme
2. Other characters comment on the first comment with questions. Anything goes.
3. The character being questioned answers the questions. Truthfully. You're allowed to gracefully skirt around answering a particular part.
4. Enjoy.

Then what is this "correct path" you speak of?

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

The course of action that the crew must take to achieve their destiny.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

You are still being vague, Seer, unless I take their ultimate objective to be defeating the Ohm.

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

The Ohm do play a significant part of it, yes.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

Do you plan on helping the crew salvage their worlds?

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

I likely won't be there when the time for that comes.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

Where will you go?

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

I will be dead.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

...

You believe that is certain?

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

Should the proper path be taken, then it is certain that I will die.

Such is Fate.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

That seems a lot to ask of you.

Why do this?

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

I have lived long enough. Why not expend my life to protect something greater?

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

I see.

What you say confuses me.

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

And why is that?

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

I don't understand why you would want to give your life for these people.

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

It is only partially for their sake. Mostly, however, it is for what they will eventually accomplish that I would give my life.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

You won't say what that is, will you?

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

Not yet.

In time, though, it will become clear.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

I suppose.
Then again, a being such as you is probably much more willing to help all of them out. Being amongst them myself, I know why I would not.

[daemonomicon.livejournal.com]

Everyone must make their own choices in the days to come.

I do not grudge you for your decision.

[demon-alessa.livejournal.com]

I would save a few, not all.

People caught up in their own private squabbles have no right to live.
