Week 6 Post-Trial

[ballooncaged]

[So that was yet another depressing culmination of multiple people's emotional development arcs for good or for bad. People who had at least somewhat originally believed in the unification of the group. Maybe it wouldn't be appropriate to demand a gathering immediately. Surely people are at liberty to make stuffed animals and take their feelings out on furniture, if they see fit. But hoping not to be alone, Mizuki is in the dining hall.]

Middle's the part that you can change, in my experience. Tiny choices, all a little different, but the beat's the same. [You can make a lot of different choices to get you to the same place. Gavroche frowns.] I don't think she's ever going to get what she wants.

Like........... Unagi.....................................

[Just the human incarnation of :') in this moment. But hm.]

Then maybe... she'll finally change what she wants? If it was actually for Alice to be around and happy?

[nothingposh]

Not gonna get my hopes up on that one, honestly. [People in power want what they want without any regard for what's good in his experience.] I think the answer is we take the story from her and tell it differently.

[ballooncaged]

How is that different from us trying to change the ending??

[Though she supposes this is a fine semantic point.]

[nothingposh]

When you change who's telling the story, the story itself changes. [It's a semantics thing, yeah.] Like if you tell it from the hero's side, it's happy but if you're the villain then it's sad.
