[Route 29] Text (locked from Ryner)/Action - Ecruteak City

*it's been a day of off an on drizzly rain throughout Johto today, and on the evening of this chilly wet day a post appears on the network from Sion. Unusual for him, it's in text. Even more unusual (not that, in theory, anyone but Sion knows), he's actually set up a filter to prevent his best friend from seeing it....*

Such melancholy weather as this leads to melancholy thoughts. If there are any who care to indulge my morbid curiosity, I wonder if there's anyone who's done something out of necessity that they've regretted. Or perhaps plans to do? What is it like to live with such a decision?


*...should anyone wish to seek him out in person, he can be found sitting in a quiet cafe somewhere in Ecruteak, reading a book that's piqued his interest*

[and it's not like Ryner's going to pry]

Hey, Sion. Find anything good?
ardent: (And as you step back into line)

Well, the situation is complicated. There are a lot of things I would change about it, if I had the chance, but if I think about it, I don't think I had any other options in that particular circumstance. It was kind of unwinnable.

[ The idea sucks, but sometimes the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or in this case, the thoughts of the one. ]

You cannot spare someone from something that is their fate.
That is what it means for it to be their fate.

[Hey, for all he knows you found a potential date or something. Your business is your business.]

Figures. You'd think it wouldn't be this hard to find anything new.

Huh. Well, hopefully everything will work out. Gotta do what you gotta do, and all that jazz.

Sad but true.

At least it's quiet, even if the weather sucks today.
ardent: (And now you steal away)

Something like that. It was a situation that made people choose between what was just and what was right.

[...]

What do you think should be done, in circumstances like that? When the just option isn't necessarily the right thing to do by anyone?

For example, someone breaks a law, and breaking that law is punishable by death. They knew that when they broke the law in the first place; however, the law was broken because they genuinely thought that breaking it was the only way to survive. Should that person face a death sentence anyway? What they did is unforgivable, but by human standards it's...understandable. I guess.
ardent: (I'm sorry that you never made it)

[personal profile] ardent 2013-10-18 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
In my case, the law itself was just, but the circumstances were not. The circumstances couldn't be altered, but they allowed for a perversion of what should be considered just and we more or less had to deal with it. If that makes sense.

I really do appreciate the insight, though; thank you.

Ahh, by the way. I was talking with Marian for a bit, and there's this restaurant down the street she recommended. Feel like going out for dinner tonight?

[It's not his fault he doesn't know about Things. Also, this kind of heartbreak is how canon rolls.]

Wouldn't it? It's been a while since we've done anything like that.

And apparently they have good cheesecake.

Marian insisted I tell you, is all. You know how she gets.

Unfortunately.

[he's trying so hard to hide that it still makes him uncomfortable when she does that, too]
