Hah, so the new year is underway! I haven't really thought about it much, but I think that this is just more proof that this place is a different 'world' than home. When I left it wasn't even summer. Which also means that we haven't hemisphere-flopped.

So there it is for you~.

I find it kind of odd that there's a faction here that apparently is big on stealing, for example...

It kind of baffles me, because the factions first give you the idea that they're there as something akin to different parts of upholding society and stuff, and then there's... that.

Though, I guess it's all about balance. There's always going to be people who will want to willingly do things they know are bad, sometimes just for the sake of doing them, but without them, there'd be half as many jobs as there are now, and life would be so much easier, but in a way, it'd be harder, too... it's hard to explain. But keeping the crime to a minimal amount is probably the closest we can get to ideal.

Yeah, I know which one you mean...but there is even one for bluebloods, so what to do?

I know that there has to be some sort of structure to a society and a good balance so there can be an equilibrium. And, too, struggle is part of life. For example, if we suddenly didn't have any negative emotions or desires -- our personal darkness -- we would not have any personal struggles and no chance to grow as a person. Then we'd be stuck...but there is a balance, because if there is too much negative and no overcoming it all gets out of control.

Wh---

And what's life without a bit of competition...?

what do you think about this, have we got a good balance?

i think that maybe our balance

that the balance of our relationship might be tilting

Hey, you're getting a bit deeper here, huh?

[miraclefusion]

If everything were perfect... there wouldn't be anything left to happen at all. Everything would be stuck in one place, day after redundant day. Perfection's just a concept, though... and to be honest, I'm pretty content for it to remain that way.

Laws, hmmm? I've yet to see a copy of these laws. I should get one though! A nice list of what I can and can't do! I'm sure that'll work out reaaal well.

It'll be like a checklist.

[opalescing]

...Well, most of the time laws are pretty obvious. When something is evil, just don't do it.

And it would be a good list, but I'm not so sure about a 'checklist'. But I suppose it depends on what you are checking off.

[morethanamask]

I've always felt that the word evil is open to a lot of personal interpretation.

I'm thinking it'd be a checklist of how to have fun on a slow day.

[opalescing]

Of course it is, but there are some pretty basic things that everyone knows is wrong.

Oh, like that? Generally, people try not to break the law.
