Behold the Fool of Owari, the Great Unifier of Japan, the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven.
and lmao well it turns out i didnt die in that fight with the dragon. u can file ur complaints with beowulf. gonna be out of commission for awhile but hey thats how shit goes i guess.
but aside from that, i wanna kno something. something thats sitting in my brain as we got a refugee crisis already forming on our hands and we pick through the rubble of a series of shitty decisions and maybe poor karma;
knowing what it is we are all here to do, do you still trust the people that run this Avalon, whether its Camelot or Celliwig or Whatever, to facilitate that task?
Re: private
i think the king means well enough he fought out there with us. i just dont think he has any clue what hes doing.
but as far as only trusting in yourself, im not sure i can agree with that either. a leader has to be able to trust their subordinates, after all.
private
that's true for a leader... dad said that a king couldnt really do everything by himself
but sometimes... it's easier to just depend on yourself
Re: private
private
a leader has the hardest job of all
private
being a leader is part of that.
i know its frightening. and it can hurt, putting urself out there, falling into arms you have to trust will catch you.
but thats the balance of things. just as your strength protects others, so do you have to rely on them to support you when you need it.
you can't take it for granted, either. you have to earn it.
private
thats why sometimes
its better to try to do it on your own
even if its hard
thank you
i know that youre trying to help
private
thats coward talk, all of it.
private
a lot of really bad stuff's happened lately
Re: private
tbh im barely in a position to lecture u on this, given im only this bad off because i was being reckless to the point of almost hoping that dragon would have taken me out.
private
i
i don't understand
why would you want to do something like that?
private
its nothing to worry yourself over, kid. promise. ill be okay.
private
dying is scary and its always really painful
i don't want that to happen to you. i'm really glad youre okay
if you have friends here, i bet that theyd want to help you
voice
Easy now, kid. It's alright. Though I guess I've already died once, already, but you don't have to worry about me biting it anytime soon.
voice
... I... I didn't know that you had already died before.
Re: voice
But it's kind of one of the per-requisites for becoming a Heroic Spirit, and all.
voice
... Is it worth being a hero if it means that you die?
Re: voice
Kid, everyone dies. Some live a long time, others... don't get that luxury. But what makes someone worthy of being a Heroic Spirit isn't just that they died, but the life they lived before that.
cw: mentions of child death
( Asriel's died quite a few times himself. Despite that, it never made it any less easy when it happened. )
Oh! Gosh, that's right! You were a hero at home, huh...?

That's the kind of person I really wanted to be a long time ago.
no subject
Well... in your own way, maybe. [ He wasn't going to pretend he thought Asriel had what it took to be a warlord, obviously, but... ]
no subject
It wouldn't really be possible at home.
no subject
Here, at home, the point is I want you to make the most of the life you have, kid. Take care of that spark you've got, and let it grow into a blaze so bright it'll light the heavens.
no subject
But... It shouldn't just be me.
We're both alive here now. I hope that you can make the most of it, too.
no subject
Sure thing, kid. Hell, it's what I do. Let's both create our own legends here.
