I'd much rather hang out with all kinds of people than fight monsters I can't even talk to. After all, there is nothing more complex and interesting than "people" in this world. text / audio / video / action art credit code credit

Fair enough. That's where our circumstances differ, I imagine.

I've had many potential paths opened to me, but they're all of the sort where none of the options felt good. I think about those "what if"s often. More than I really enjoy, so I almost envy your confidence in the certainty of your path.

For me, they simply were never... as important as my life's work.

The certainty comes from seeing the injustice, Hugo. Watching it happen every day. What do I care about murder, when we rot from breathing too much gas, or starve to death? What is one more death, when stacked against the piles of bodies I had to throw in the Pilt when they shot us on the bridge between our cities?

Certainty comes with suffering. Be happy that you have the ability to choose.

You're right, of course. I try to never forget that even with my personal hardships, I still come from an upbringing of privilege.

But as usual, you've given me a lot to think about, so thank you. I'm sorry again for being too candid about your identity as well.

Until next time~
