✖ fifth feather ✖ this is my town, this is my city now

[there is the sound of footsteps and quiet breathing, as Rinoa walks through Xanadu. It continues for a few moments, before she comes to a standstill]

...do you think that, if somebody has power, it's a reason to fear them? To hate them?

Maybe if they misuse it---but what if they can't control it?

[there is a soft 'clink'! of metal; Rinoa has grabbed ( Read more... )

sorceress here, the city kinda sucks, need something to do, need some money, it's not a game, don't wanna be hated, be my knight, thinly veiled theoretical situation, what is my life, alien planet?

There aren't a whole lot of reasons to fear and hate someone just like that.

...I don't think about power. I'd rather hear about the person wielding it.

Do you think it's because people can't understand?

...it would be nice if everybody gave people chances like that.

...that's right, you were talking to Setsuna.

I don't think that's the only reason, but if he says so it might be part of it.

ange_de_voeux June 2 2009, 03:01:40 UTC

It got me thinking a little.

I think the thing is I don't understand.

If they can't control it, then they should learn. It's one of life's little rules.

voice; it's a placeholder party here! ♥ also, that last line reminds me of hakuna matata ange_de_voeux June 1 2009, 10:16:30 UTC

Well, maybe some people don't know how!

That's.. a complicated question.

ange_de_voeux June 2 2009, 03:03:08 UTC

Well, it's meant to make people think! It's... definitely making me think.

rockstar_otouto June 2 2009, 03:34:46 UTC

Hmmm..

I guess.. If people use their powers for bad, to like hurt people, they should be feared.. but I dunno about hated. It depends on why they do it.

ange_de_voeux June 2 2009, 03:40:40 UTC

What if they're forced to?

I guess it depends on what they do with it. What their intentions are.

ange_de_voeux June 2 2009, 03:04:32 UTC

I guess... power just scares me. It scares a lot of people, but I still don't think it justifies it.

revengeisalie June 2 2009, 09:13:32 UTC

Powerful people can be pretty intimidating, but... yeah, it doesn't mean they're necessarily bad.

notaweapon June 1 2009, 13:08:16 UTC

If you can be useful to people, then power is beneficial.

ange_de_voeux June 2 2009, 03:06:00 UTC

That's a nice way of looking at it. I think... more people should see it that way.
