Third ☂ Text

Many of you seem to be unhappy.

We don't all necessarily want you to be happy, but acceptance and adaptation to your situation would be a start. The only question that remains is: how?

It is clear to us that your species resolves many issues through communication. Unfortunately, none of us understand the human psyche as clearly as others of your species, and so I leave it to you to communicate with and to help one another.

You may consider this post an open forum in which you can discuss what's been bothering you. In turn, I will conceal your identities, so that you may help one another without preconceived biases. If you'd like to reveal yourselves to one another, the option is there, but unnecessary.

Heal. Recover.

I'll leave you to it.

i think the murdercave issue is pretty self explanatory

back home is complicated
i did things i wish i hadnt

You come back to life, it's not all bad.

What will you do about it if you ever return home? I hardly think running from your problems will solve anything. You'd do better to step up and own it, even if you can't fix it.

it is all that bad
the last time i died was horrifying
maybe for you it doesnt cause an existential crisis but i
it was really fucked up

if i own it im going to end up in jail

What's there to be afraid of if you know you'll be resurrected?

Murder, perhaps? Just join a line of work where it's permitted. They can't touch you there. Take it from a mercenary.

you can be hurt a hell of a lot on the way there

ok 1: mercenaries are not a legal thing where im from
2: that wouldnt make it ok

I suppose. I guess. Maybe? Sorry, I've got a high pain tolerance. I've walked like nothing was wrong with broken ribs. You could always up your ante or ask the Gods for a favour. I'm sure they'd comply for a price.

Military, bodyguard. Killing is a natural part of life. You've got to learn to take what happened and learn from it instead of sulking over it. No amount of moping will make it okay, either. You should just accept it, pick your pieces up, and just... try not to do it again, if it bugs you so much.

is this what you think passes for sympathy

[Your first mistake might be thinking Yukari has sympathy. This is his version of helping, though.]

I'm telling you there's no point to regret. If you keep mulling over it, what good is it doing you? Bad things happen to everyone, everyone is guilty of something. If you let it drag you down with it, you're not doing anyone, especially yourself, any favours.

feeling guilt is the only reason i know im not entirely fucked up yet

Feeling guilt is a hindrance. I will never understand how you people are your own worst critics. If you feel guilt and no one else blames you, does it help you? Not even a little. All you're doing is tearing yourself apart for something you can't change. If you ask me, guilt is more perturbing than rising above it and becoming stronger.

i never said no one else blames me

if you what to carry yourself like that fine
but dont expect anyone to think thats a good thing to be

And the exact problem is that you think they do blame you. Whether they've said it or not. Tell me, what difference does it make? What difference has being guilty brought you?

Misery? Turmoil. Heh, some existence.

i already told you

Right, that you're not... what was it... "Fucked up"? No, you're just being bent over the table and taking it without question. That's smart. So, when's the part when you get back up? What would make your sins forgiven, then? Do you even know?

ok thats a horrible metaphor could you never use that again

Will you answer the question if I don't?

thats literally disgusting

I've been called much worse. Will you answer or won't you?

give the anon a break he said he felt guilt and that it helps him
we're not all psychopaths who can kill people without remorse
some people actually feel bad when they do something wrong
telling someone to "get over it" helps about as much as not saying anything at all

I don't understand how remorse serves a purpose. And simply to not feel like a monster is not a verifiable excuse. Grief is one thing, to grieve is fine. But to regret it? One would simply waste their lives.

the only purpose it serves is to remind us that we're wrong
killing is wrong
if you think otherwise that's your problem
not mine and not this person's

Killing is nature. To declare it wrong is a law written only by humanity. I'd like to see you make that case toward an animal who's every inclination is to destroy it's prey. If you allow yourself to get devoured by something you could have easily outrun or defeated because you simply feel guilt for stepping into it's territory, that would appear to be your problem, wouldn't it.

But, I shall digress. You've gotten what you wanted.

right because humanity has gotten this far because we all kill each other in the streets
thanks for the awesome history lesson
