[ sometimes you're just a guy who's gonna help noxus strategically firebomb an entire squad of of their own soldiers... or a guy who already did that... or maybe that's not going to happen anymore... STARES INTO THE SUN ABOUT IT. ]
But it sort of sounds like they were just continuing on with their own plans rather than thinking about yours.
They have their own way of viewing the world, their own goals. I suppose one did not have the option to think of mine when it was rooted in the emotional, and the other was wary of radical ideas.
Is there a reason it bothers you as much as it does?
[ it's fine, but everyone must endure my loud suffering. ]
I'm lucky enough to have a really great mentor. Someone who backs up their students but lets them make their own mistakes and their own choices. Sometimes I feel like Kivotos would fall into ruin without them. Actually, it almost did...
I don't like to think of where we would be without them.
... And as Sisters, we're meant to offer counselling services... But it isn't something I'm very good at, yet.
I think you do a fine job. You may be more needed on the other side actually. I suppose you would have been able to speak to them if not for the disruption.
My duty was always going to be to this side, first and foremost. I suppose if no one had come to need caring for here, I could have tried to make myself useful over there.
But if things did still play out the same, I would be too busy here.
[ she gives a thoughtful little nod at that. ] Thank you. I try to... But that isn't always what people need. I can offer services. I can offer resources. I can offer hope. But—advice and true counselling is still beyond me.
I don't think so. You are closer to it than you give yourself credit for. You have offered me counsel while I have been here.
[The optimism wasn't always logical - to his addled Hexcore brain - but it was encouraging.]
I don't see any reason your optimism wouldn't be something someone needed regardless of whatever problem they may be facing. Kiraman and I are those who look for reasonable solutions, and even though our goal is compassion, many find us... cold and callous in our process.
Just because you have the path of answers [them, advice] doesn't mean it's what is best for those suffering.
[Not to diminish her worries.]
But I understand... your reservations. "Everyone has their own strengths," mm?
But I wonder how much counsel you really need. You seem... not sure of yourself, exactly. But steady enough. Dedicated to your beliefs.
[ and she also just doesn't really see herself as capable of counselling an adult. adults are mysterious and unknowable. anyway, she smiles brightly. ]
For the record, I don't find the two of you cold or callous at all. You're far too helpful for that. But I'm happy if you think of us as a balanced team! That just means we all need to work together.
[the way i pulled an aki and didn't neurotically scroll up to check if it was a sandwich and it wasn't........ this chaotic rp style really does just work for him all the time!!!! HELLO!
[ listen my neurotic ass will never make choices. if someone chaotically decides things for us: good.

It would be nice if we got a proper kitchen sometime. [ instead just having to borrow the kitchens in the kindergarten cafeteria and autumn alley restaurants. ]

In their own ways, perhaps both.

Things will work out. There is always progress and everything always moves forward. Failure comes from not adapting.
