I have...kind of a stupid question.

What do you do if you think you know something that can't be true-but it is anyway?

[PRIVATE to Sora]

Can I talk to you?

That's what I'm trying to do.

Well, if you think whatever it is you know is true, then you can either try confirming it or just not do anything.

It's not like I'd know what it is you might be claiming to know.

I think it is, it just...doesn't make any sense. It's like saying the sky is actually the earth.

[Ignoring the last part for now] Meet me somewhere we can talk in private? I don't care where.

I think it's a common situation to run into in the City. I know I've had to confront several things that I knew couldn't be true and yet in this place, it's solid, living, flesh and blood.

Yeah, this place is really weird...it's not something the City made happen, though. It's from back home. But it should still be impossible there.

In that case, I'd attempt to understand it by attempting to logically disprove it. Look at the evidence, see if you can come up with sound, logical reasons backed by evidence that it isn't true.

Once you're finished, if it's still true then at least you've got solid reasoning and evidence on why it's true.

Like...science? I don't know if that would work here.

... what do you mean? Something's just true or it's not, right?

Reply

voice; binarysky August 23 2011, 01:41:11 UTC
Yeah. But something can be true when everything that makes sense says it shouldn't be...I think.

voice; aettir August 23 2011, 01:44:53 UTC
Screw sense! If it's true, it's true.

Maybe. I'm not sure what to do even if it is, though.

That's not a stupid question.

Feels pretty stupid.

innocentvow August 23 2011, 14:02:34 UTC
It's not.

[She sounds... way too insistent about that, weirdly enough.]

Why not?
