[Chara has been off living out on the streets of Avalon, or in the woods, since their fight with Asriel. They have replied to a few things here and there but now, they have a question of their own.

Except they don't want it attached to their name, so going anonymous and text.]

Say you have a friend, but they're not the best kind of person. Like they've admitted to having hurt people, people close to you.

Would you be willing to forgive them for such a thing? If so, why? And if not, why?

I would want to find out why they hurt people close to me.

and what kind of hurt?

Depends on what they did? I know I've said some pretty hurtful things before and my friends forgave me. Unless you mean something worse.

( Asriel hesitates to respond, but eventually he comes up with answer.

He feels uneasy responding. But, when has that stopped him from doing anything? )

I'd want to understand. If they're my friend, I'd want to forgive them.

There can be a lot of different situations that causes someone to hurt someone else.

Well I think everybody deserves a second chance! Especially if they're feeling bad about it!

Is forgiveness so important? You know it's not always possible.

If they have admitted it and have become or strive to become a better person, yes of course.

Monsters are people. I believe every one of us could become monsters, given the right set of circumstances.

idk, I'm sort of friends with a guy who shot my ex, it really depends on context.

If they're your friend, then you'll forgive them. If you can't, then I'm not really sure that you can call them that.

And if it was something bad enough that you can't forgive them, then it might be best to keep your distance to keep them from hurting those you care about again.

Yeah, I mean— depending how bad. But yeah. Even family— even best friends hurt each other sometimes. Even betray each other! As long as you come through in the end and fix things, it shows you care. You're there. You won't leave them. Even if they mess everything up. Or you mess everything up! But it's gotta go both ways, y'know?
