Rank up! Rank 3! [Text/Action for Goldenrod]

[Yumi Ozawa is having a rough night. She's decided to bring up something she hasn't in a while, a certain man named William Shakespeare, and a certain play of his.]

Or, if there were a sympathy in choice ( Read more... )

still homesick, theatre, late night or early morning?, breeding centre, reciting lines, goldenrod city

Why do you ask questions whose answers you already know?

sunshine_fruit October 17 2011, 16:43:27 UTC

I'm just trying to make conversation. It's an interesting piece, I think.

[ The reply takes a while to come, not because Magoichi is hesitant, but because it takes her some time to type on this strange contraption. ]

I can see truth in it. Few choices we make are truly our own: each opportunity is dictated by what paths the world offers to us.

So you think that we have no control over our own happiness, then?

redbelltolls October 17 2011, 23:16:07 UTC

We have control, but it is nowhere as absolute as some make it out to be.

Now do you understand why I asked? It's a bit more than just a quote. It's kind of interesting to see what people think.

I don't agree with it completely, either.

redbelltolls October 17 2011, 23:55:49 UTC

I do see. What is it, then, that you think of it?

sunshine_fruit October 18 2011, 05:47:45 UTC

I think that it's true on the surface. For a lot of people, circumstances dictate happiness. I think it has a lot to do with adjustment and state of mind as well.

redbelltolls October 18 2011, 17:17:57 UTC

I believe you are right, to a degree. I am of the belief that where our true choice comes in is how to react to the circumstances we are faced with. The world will not give us happiness: we must fight for it ourselves.

sunshine_fruit October 18 2011, 19:05:45 UTC

So it's not possible to be born into happiness, either? What if you were born into a healthy, loving, well-off family? Do you still have to work for it?

redbelltolls October 18 2011, 23:15:03 UTC

Of course. No one is immune to trouble, even if they have a leg-up on the rest of us.

sunshine_fruit October 28 2011, 23:44:28 UTC

I guess that makes sense, too. Everyone's wants and needs are different.

My name is Yumi, by the way. Who am I speaking to?

redbelltolls October 29 2011, 16:05:02 UTC

I am Saika Magoichi.

sunshine_fruit October 30 2011, 06:24:12 UTC

Wait, that name sounds very familiar. I'm drawing a blank, though.

redbelltolls November 1 2011, 16:55:23 UTC

You may have heard of the Saika Faction. We are mercenaries, who fly the flag of the Yatagarasu.

sunshine_fruit November 2 2011, 06:52:40 UTC

There are a lot of people showing up from my world's past all of a sudden.
