Saving multiple worlds -- no, multiple universes, do you think that is enough to erase the sins that a person has committed?

Or is this merely what is right for those that are sinners?

Perhaps, redemption is beyond us and we can only do a little bit of good before judgement.

never thought I'd see you use the internet
It's kiiiinda making me cringe

Anyway, I don't know anything about sin and stuff, but if you ask me, saving all the worlds would be pretty damn badass
Not even Sparda did that, and he wasn't exactly innocent before he decided to save humanity

private text; he's mclosing it 1/3

[honorkept]

I also do not find it ideal.

[honorkept]

[ Nero, you cannot just compare someone to the Savior even in this manner. And also, that is a god? He has purified himself from whatever sins that occurred before? Also he acted as their feudal lord and mostly protected the humans of Fortuna? Salvation, Nero?? Hello??? ]

[honorkept]

AND DO NOT MAKE SUCH COMPARISON AND COMMENTARY ON THE SAVIOR IN THAT MANNER, NERO!

[birdflipping]

[why can he hear credo yelling at him even though it's in text...]

Take a deep breath and listen
Sparda was a hero because he turned against his own kind and realised what they were doing was wrong
You turned against the Order when you realised what they were doing was wrong.

See where I'm going? You're a lot more like the Savior than you're giving yourself credit for.

I don't think it's disrespectful to wanna be like him. I figured that was the whole point of the teachings

1/2

[honorkept]

I'm nothing like the Savior.
The Savior turned against his own kind and willingly made himself a pariah for the sake of humanity. His sacrifice was one that he could never return home, and perhaps, never find a place to be at peace.

If Kyrie and you were never involved, I may not have done anything at all, Nero. I only did good because of my selfish wish to ensure your safety and happiness.

The Savior did what he did for no selfish wish in his heart.

It's not disrespectful to be like him, for you are correct that is the point of the teachings, but I am but a shadow of the person that he is. I could never do what he did, and so

[honorkept]

IT ISN'T THE SAME.

[birdflipping]

WILL YOU STOP YELLING AT ME???

and fighting for the people you love isn't selfish!! it's the strongest thing in the whole damn world. Sanctus didn't understand that and couldn't use Sparda's power right, even when he had the sword, and that was how I kicked his ass.
In the end, he just preached a bunch of empty shit.

[honorkept]

[ Huff. ]

Fine.

You're right that he did not have any love in his heart. Not for the people, not for the damned, not for even the world that he wanted to save.

But this matter of mine doesn't concern you, Nero.

[birdflipping]

course it does, dumbass. I'm worried about you.

We're gonna save all the worlds, and protect Kyrie and Fortuna
Dante trusted me to keep the human world safe. I'm not about to start doubting myself.
You're gonna help. you got a problem with that, we can talk about it in person

["""talk""" about it]

[honorkept]

Worried about me?

Yes, we are going to do all those things, Nero.
I merely will not seek out any redemption for myself at the end of these trials that we find ourselves in.
The Son of Sparda trusts you to watch over the human world, but this matter is my own -- and I am an angel.

So, it doesn't concern you.

[birdflipping]

Why wouldn't I be worried when you're beating yourself up so damn much?

I don't give a shit what you are. Angel, demon, human, whatever. You're still Credo to me, no matter what.

[honorkept]

I'm beating myself up the reasonable amount.

And I am still older than you. I do not need you to worry about me.

[birdflipping]

Well, that's dumb. By that logic, I can't worry about Kyrie either.

Besides, there's nothing reasonable about going on the internet and yelling at a bunch of people about being beyond redemption and sin and stuff. You gonna go for self-flagellation on the streets next? Get it together, Credo.

[honorkept]

That is a different situation and you know it.

They should know what kind of man that is with them. What is wrong with that?

[birdflipping]

Well if that's how you feel, what if I made a post talking about how great you are

[honorkept]

You've grown much too old for such childish antics.

[birdflipping]

They should know what kind of man that is with them. What is wrong with that?

Your words, not mine.

[honorkept]

And hear the biased ramblings from a loved one?

There's no need to lend your voice to this matter.

[birdflipping]

[already working on typing a post, sorry credo]

Come on, we can't have everyone thinking you're some asshole. That's MY thing

[honorkept]

[ I MEAN. People may not have thought he was an asshole, but! ]

I was never that well-liked a person.

[birdflipping]

Bullshit. There wasn't a person on Fortuna who didn't respect you

[except Agnus, but fuck that guy]

[honorkept]

Respected, yes, but being respected and liked are two different things.

[ He forgets what his point is, but feels like it comes down to NO STOP THAT ]

[birdflipping]

aaaand posted

[what did he post??? that's for Credo to figure out :) ]

[honorkept]

[ WHAT.

WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THIS OVER TO THE OTHER POST, BUDDY!!

What is life without some thread continuity. ]
