Well, if you all start dying en masse, that'll be a pain. They'll probably just summon more people in your place since there's so much time before the ritual.
[ famine will also stop and stare at the lullaby one. ooooo miss robin go do a kill, it says ]
But I don't think it'll suddenly speed up all your deaths collectively, if that's what you're worried about. Individually though, yes.
It needn't go so far as to be philosophical. I wish to learn more about you.
[ she is capable of letting a conversation move on. she's not her brother. ]
I've learned more and more how people survive or live in dreams and come to think about how much of it is truly living, but... at the same time, perhaps birds fly into the sky because it is their dream—or their irrevocable right.
You could see it that way, but I think that anyone has the right to pursue what they want and to overcome what holds them back with their own abilities and their own will.
[ their answer is also simple... diametrically opposed ]
What do you think of the people who will never be able to help themselves with their own power? Whether because of their circumstances or their shortcomings?
They should be offered a hand, a chance to use their wings. People should be helped and saved. It may not always be possible, but that doesn't mean no one should try.
It's an annoyance, because it's unnecessary. It will not earn you any better treatment than others.
[ is there a tattoo for also being annoying, famine needs that one ]
And if they grow dependent on that assistance? Or if the person who offers the hand seeks to hold that power over the person they are helping, manipulating them?
I do not need or care for better treatment from you.
[ famine will never be more annoying than the paparazzi. ]
The strong can exploit the weak, as much as they can help them. Not every circumstance will end in some perfect scenario, but people can learn and they can evolve. Everyone has potential. One or three or five bad turns doesn't end a story.
You have to wake up from dreams in order to live. Reality... doesn't change simply because you dream.
Even if one person who is helped still stumbles and falls, another person who is helped can spread their wings and fly. I'd like to take that chance, every time.

week 1, monday
It's not the rest of the cult, but I wanted to take another look anyway. Let's go.
no subject
[ she follows them down. ]
no subject
[ time to go into the creepy room with all the murder incentives i wish one of these tempted robin ]
no subject
the one that makes her stop and stare the most is sweet lullaby but more because of painful memories than because it tempts her. ]
If people are tempted by this and follow through, will it also feed into the ritual?
no subject
[ famine will also stop and stare at the lullaby one. ooooo miss robin go do a kill, it says ]
But I don't think it'll suddenly speed up all your deaths collectively, if that's what you're worried about. Individually though, yes.
[ lots of these are tempting ]
no subject
Do you believe these items will do what they promise?
[ she isn't tempted at all. ): ]
no subject
[ they'll look over them all, though their gaze doesn't linger on any ]
So that'll be a problem.
no subject
There's no way to bar this place, is there?
[ she asks in the way that she knows what the answer will be. ]
no subject
Would it help if I solidified your disappointment?
no subject
Why do birds fly towards the sky, if they are destined to fall back towards the ground?
[ her answers to these questions are answers to their questions. ]
no subject
And while this is only a guess, birds will get eaten if grounded since they're such easy targets in the food chain.
[ take that hoyoverse ]
no subject
robin, however... is learning. ]
You're the logical sort, aren't you?
no subject
[ instead of spending four patches answering... ]
Why? What are your answers?
no subject
[ she is capable of letting a conversation move on. she's not her brother. ]
I've learned more and more how people survive or live in dreams and come to think about how much of it is truly living, but... at the same time, perhaps birds fly into the sky because it is their dream—or their irrevocable right.
no subject
[ ? ]
Is this an analogy about human rights?
no subject
[ it's that simple. she wants to understand. ]
You could see it that way, but I think that anyone has the right to pursue what they want and to overcome what holds them back with their own abilities and their own will.
no subject
[ their answer is also simple... diametrically opposed ]
What do you think of the people who will never be able to help themselves with their own power? Whether because of their circumstances or their shortcomings?
no subject
[ she remembers the apathy tattoo. ]
They should be offered a hand, a chance to use their wings. People should be helped and saved. It may not always be possible, but that doesn't mean no one should try.

no subject
... as long as your head isn't empty, aside from being full of dreams.
[ they don't disagree with her ]
no subject
Even if one person who is helped still stumbles and falls, another person who is helped can spread their wings and fly. I'd like to take that chance, every time.
no subject
Will you be talking in metaphors the entire time.
no subject
I could talk in song instead.
no subject
I suppose I haven't heard a song in some time.
All the same, this sense of optimism feels misplaced in a situation where you've been summoned only to be sacrificed.
