Mmm. Feel depressed, despite arguing with that guy.

Can people stop something as great truth, if hope is strong enough?

Mmm. Feel a little lonely.

... and he had to attack me about that...

Probably gonna be miserable.

... What do you mean?

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

There is always a answer to a problem, Noriko. No matter how small, or how big, or how absolutely frustrating.

It might just not be obvious, the first time you try to find it. You might miss it, when you look one time, and then you'll spot it the next.

Being back on square one, in and of itself... Might ultimately lead to you finding the "answer" you want. That you wish for.

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

... And what if I can't accept an answer at all?

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

Then that is your ability of acceptance, that would get in the way. Not the inability to find an answer or to look for one; just the ability to accept.

...Tell me, out of curiosity... How would you like it, if there was a world, in which you could be who you wanted to be, and you'd still have the same living conditions that you do? Your parents would accept you as you are. Your friends will be close to you, and care for you, as much as you care about them. You wouldn't have to worry about disappointing anyone. You wouldn't have to worry about losing what you have.

How would you like that, just out of curiosity?

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

... I'd want that very much, but such a thing is impossible, Shikou.

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

Hahahahahah... Nothing is ever impossible, Noriko.

At this point... It might be "improbable"... But one day soon, that will be a possible reality.

The ability to make it the true reality would come, as well, depending on the circumstances... And depending on your choices.

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

... Something seems different about you.

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

Nothing is different, Noriko. I've just accepted a few things.

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

You're just usually not this proactive.

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

"Usually", being the key word there, wouldn't you agree?

I've just found more of a reason to be so, now, Noriko.

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

Ah? What's the reason?

... But still, it's a delusional fantasy to think I could be... 'normal' and worth talking to.

I should just ask for the witch to take back my wish.

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

The reason being one that you'll discover, in due time, Noriko. You're quite involved in this, actually.

If you want to, Noriko. But it's far from a "delusional fantasy".

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

It is when I know how the real world works.

I can't and shouldn't be this nice...

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

There's a reason why it's not a delusional fantasy.

Because it might just be the "real" world, one day.

It just all depends on how much you want it. How much you yearn for it. How much you'd wish to do for it.

What would you do, to make a "delusional fantasy" the absolute reality?

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

Bullshit! Things don't change that easily.

... I don't know... because I know the dream is a dream. Therefore I can't tell you what I'd do for it's sake.

[Private to Noriko]

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

Who said it'd be "easy", HiME?

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

... What does that have to do with this, Shikou?

You have been brainwashed like those others, have you?

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

It has everything to do with this, HiME.

No, not brainwashed. I've just accepted my destiny. Just as a price, to fix a problem.

And it's because of this destiny, that I'm able to fix another problem... One much more severe, than the one I paid to fix, already.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

... It has nothing to do with anything. I just have a flute that lets me tell people what to do. It's a toy. And it barely works.

... Right. Isn't that the same thing?

... Oh?

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

Hahahahah... You don't know how important the HiMEs are, do you, Noriko?

No. It was inevitable. My acceptance of it, due to the wish to fix something, just sped up the process.

Have you ever really looked at the world, so far?

Beings like Darkness want to completely destroy it.

Beings like Haou want to rule over it, without making any efforts to improve it.

People murder. People steal. People commit acts considered to be illegal. Lust. Envy. Pride. Gluttony. Wrath. Greed. Sloth. The seven sins themselves are everywhere, in this world.

But there is still a shred of hope. And with that, I'd need your help, Noriko. To expand on that hope, and to make the world into what it should be, without beings like Darkness. Without being like Haou. Where you would have been born into a situation, in where you could be who you'd want, without worry. Where I wasn't born with the traits of a monster. Where people can be accepted and cared for, no matter what. Where temptation itself doesn't exist.

And believe me, HiME, this is completely possible.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

Not. Really.

... Ah.

Well, we aren't very moral.

And tyrants are tyrannical.

... Don't we need temptation to know what's worth living for? And how can I be rich and poor at the same time? HOW?

How is it possible.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

You will very soon, HiME.

Noriko. Even right now, you aren't "poor". Your mindset is stuck into believe that you are, despite your pre-existing status.

Your wish has made you into a better person, arguably. However, you are not poor. You're just afraid of staying the way the wish has made you, though, because of your parents expecting you to be the snobby little... "Princess", that you were before, in their eyes. In your eyes. In the eyes of others.

A better world wouldn't need you to worry, Noriko. A better world would have allowed you to act this way, without fear of being disowned by your family. A better world wouldn't have required you to make a wish, to achieve this.

A better world could be yours, if you just agree to help, when the time came. It just can't come yet, because the "time" has not come.

But it will come very soon, HiME.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

... Thanks... I guess.

... I'm mentally rich and poor.

... I need to be her. or I'll be nothing. All I have is my wealth.

... It can't be possible...

I want it to be possible, but impossible things are still impossible, Shikou.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[observershikou.livejournal.com]

In a better world, you can be who you are right now, and still have everything. Acceptance. Wealth. Friendship. Love. Anything you'd want, that you wouldn't be able to get otherwise.

It is all possible. More than you'd believe.

You just need to let me ask for your help, when the time comes, to truly begin, Wakahisa Noriko. You can be the difference between obtaining the preferred reality, or losing the greatest of opportunities.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch.livejournal.com]

I'd love for that, but it's still child's fancy.

Mmm...

... I'll think about it.

I guess, my problem, is I'm so miserable, I need proof before I can accept anything, Shikou.
