EXPIATION FLAVORED
⬬ the AI filled it out for him this time
⬬ saw something you weren't meant to see
⬬ the person he has to return to
⬬ the truth has to come to light
⬬ should have broken it a long time ago

GENERAL MEMERY

But if that's the case, then isn't there the chance to introduce something new?

[He just, has to explore all the other options.]

[chimericalclaw]

There's a chance all of us could be sent home tomorrow, as well, but that doesn't mean it's likely.

[Zekarion, meanwhile, knows he only has so much time and energy, and intends to spend both carefully. Optimistic potentials of reforming anyone or anything are extremely low on his priority list.]

We don't have forever to find our way out from here, lest you've missed or forgotten the fate of our predecessors.

[theskyaccepts]

Then we have to use what time we have, and I don't think plotting destruction is going to help anyone.

[Granted, he knows he's not smart enough to be much help.]

[chimericalclaw]

[One eyebrow furrows. These idealistic types always shy away from bitter truths...]

You don't consider it helpful to prevent the inevitable suffering that would result should this place remain as it is?

[theskyaccepts]

I just don't know if destruction is prevention. Destroying something is kind of a last resort, right?

And what if we manage to change it?

[chimericalclaw]

[Why has he come around to arguing again? He told himself he wouldn't do it. Still, there's almost something freeing to finally expressing his true thoughts...]

I suppose you never know if a dormant disease will cause damage, either. That doesn't mean you leave it be, or that it's even possible to transform it into something helpful.

[theskyaccepts]

It shouldn't mean just destroying it outright either. Just because there's no way of knowing.

[chimericalclaw]

[With the sense of a sigh:]

I knew you were naive, but now I'm beginning to think you're determined to be willfully stupid.

[His upper lip twitches at the admission, but it is what it is. At least when he continues he only sounds disgruntled rather than openly angry.]

Enough. We'll clearly never agree.

[theskyaccepts]

[Tsuna shrugs. At least there's a sense of honesty there now.]

I've just seen what happens when things get bad, and I guess I'd want to exhaust every other option before accepting that.

Are you feeling better now?

[chimericalclaw]

[Something he's absolutely sure of is that they don't have the time to exhaust all their options—and even if they did, it would mean more would be drawn in, more would be forced to suffer.

He shakes his head, unwilling to accept that outcome. Still, he remains verbally silent regarding that topic, his obvious displeasure apparently enough for the curse of honesty. Zekarion's eyes go back to Tsuna when he asks after his condition.]

I suppose in the sense that I'm not in pain, [is his answer.] But I don't expect this will be the end of it.

[theskyaccepts]

Well, I was able to help that much, at least.

[So he's counting it as something of a win.]

[chimericalclaw]

[Zekarion, meanwhile, doesn't seem much more than disdainful when he turns away:]

Don't be too proud of yourself for asking questions when I told you not to.

[Still, the words aren't as harsh as they could be. He will, however, have to be more cautious going forward... and keep a closer eye on the young man.]

[theskyaccepts]

[The thing is, he's going to be.]

My tutor probably would be though.
