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.

So you're already headed straight to hell and you might as well take someone along for the ride, is that it?

[skelebro]

What kind of twist?

You're already anonymous, man. Might as well get it off your chest.

[skelebro]

On the contrary, you're talking to someone who knows exactly how it feels to regret making a promise.

[skelebro]

It sucks, right?

You make a promise because you care about someone. Don't realize until it's too late that you should've kept your mouth shut. Only it's real hard.

When the one time you try to do something nice for someone, it backfires.

Not everything is the universe exacting some kind of karmic retribution. Easy to fall into that, but sometimes things just happen.

Sometimes the universe is just an uncaring thing that deals out shit to whoever's in the vicinity.




Or maybe that's just a really nice thought.

Someone with integrity.

I can respect that.

( anon )

[skelebro]

No. I actually think that's something worth admiring.

I promised to keep someone safe. And I kind of messed up.

A lot.

( anon )

[skelebro]

I let them die.

A lot, actually.

Made it all seem like it was some big joke. Didn't do anywhere near as much as I should have, and tried to play it off like it was no big deal.

Like it was always going to happen.

[skelebro]

Yeah. Complicated, but true.

Most people only get one death, is my general understanding.

Though I guess the way things work here might warm you up to the idea that some people get several.

Didn't feel like there was any point. They would just keep coming back anyway. What did it matter?

Turns out it mattered a lot more than I thought.

[Heh...wow. Remarkably astute, huh?]

Yeah, well, that was kind of the problem. I knew it wasn't the right thing to do. I just didn't do anything to change it.

( anon )

[skelebro]

You know?

I don't know. I really don't know.

I'd like to think I'd do better.

But knowing me, I wouldn't change a single thing.
