Mission Report #22

[video, fail!private]

[From the looks of things, Squall probably intended this to be voice, but, well, he's a little preoccupied. He's sitting on the beach, and the video displays only a partial view of his booted feet on the sand, and his sheathed gunblade where he set it down next to him, and a more distant view of the ocean and the Lighthouse.] ( Read more... )

If you're good at fighting, I don't see what there is to feel guilty about.

voice leon_dormant November 4 2009, 00:27:03 UTC

Sure, I'm good at it. But it's not just the fighting.

voice notover_yet November 4 2009, 00:46:36 UTC

A sense of duty, then?

voice leon_dormant November 4 2009, 05:01:22 UTC

That's not really what I meant. If there's a war, people will die. Things will be destroyed. It's unavoidable.

Nobody should want that.

You want it to be you? To fight in a war or to protect the people you love by being involved, Squall?

leon_dormant November 4 2009, 05:28:10 UTC

I... don't know.

I don't know. I don't know what it's even about, so how can I say that I just want to fight to protect something? It'd be better if they were safe without any need to fight.

Because war is sometimes inevitable, Squall. You are a soldier who helps to run a military academy, right? It must be part of your beliefs.

leon_dormant November 4 2009, 19:27:20 UTC

Maybe that's all it is. Just how I was raised.

Think you meant to keep that one locked up, Leonhart.

[Scowwwwwwwl.]

Yeah, no kidding.

[He sees that scowl, and is just... sort of watching, not even aware of what might happen should their eyes meet.]

But... does it really matter if you are or not?

[video] leon_dormant November 4 2009, 05:53:42 UTC

[Squall, on the other hand, is keeping his eyes averted, because he's had a bit of an education on the day's curse already.

This is about as awkward as one might expect.]

I don't know.

Maybe I just don't like the idea of there being a copy of me out there somewhere.

I think you're thinking too much again.

leon_dormant November 4 2009, 05:43:06 UTC

I can't help it.

reparateur November 4 2009, 05:47:43 UTC

Do you need anything?

leon_dormant November 4 2009, 05:57:01 UTC

I don't think so... unless you've got a way for me to just stop thinking about it.
