[oh my god our wolf.] Huh. Really? I don't know where I'd even get alcohol, but that's good to know.
[alas.] That's why I've wanted to get to know them, too. Ochako and I think that even though we should remember they made a huge sacrifice for us, we should try to help them remember their feelings are just as important. I've only learned a few things about each of them, but it's hard not to really like them.
But I agree. [that said soo-won likes everyone] They feel rather responsible for us in different ways, and I think it's very kind - but in ways they're even more lost than we are. We have to be mindful of that.
Even as we search for answers and think about where we might be being deceived.... it nonetheless doesn't mean we can't extend kindness to everyone while we do it.
Exactly. I know they're trying, but I bet it frustrates them not to really know what to do. Tiger even called themselves reject versions. [which. hm.]
I kind of wish more people felt that way. If they did, maybe we wouldn't have as big of a mess on our hands. [if people were kind, perhaps they would not murder...]
[he repeats it quietly and... a little distastefully. can't say that he likes that.]
... but I think that perhaps there are times in which it is hard to choose kindness. I agree with you that it'd be nice if people weren't so quick to turn to violence -
But I also think that perhaps the greatest acts of it are born out of places of intense feeling, whether that be devotion or pain.
[hearing the words repeated back to him makes him frown again.]
...you're not wrong. Pain is being human, just like hope is being human. A heart has room for both of those things. But it's when people let their hurt and their darkness overrule everything else that we have to worry.
[mostly because it could mean the difference between helping and hurting.]
Darkness and light can't always exist without each other. [it's what he equates this to. darkness is pain, light is hope.] If there is a balance, we should find it soon enough. We just have to make sure people are looking.

[it's just - ]
... at the very least from my experience, I think that the two often come together in different balances.
We just need to see what the balance is here.
