theyre good words
they definitely hold a certain amount of weight to them, and theyre circumstantial.
but i think theyre good ones. they could apply to you too in certain situations? its like

i guess

being unsure what to do, logically is what's happening
but
i know what my heart wants
and my heart so badly wants to have my brother back


[ that might not mean anything to takame, not right now, not until he's gotten a chance to sit down and actually speak with him about the things that happened on no man's land, because god forbid--he will not tell anyone about the great fall, but... ]

id like to have my brother back

This realm gives us opportunities we never would have in our homes. It isn't possible to know whether they will be for good or ill.

If you want him back, reach out to him. There is a chance to take.

[And Takame didn't want to share just how bad of an idea he thought this was.]

[doubledollar]

[ it's a bad idea. he partly knows it's a bad idea. there's that voice that's presently TELLING him it's a bad idea.

but every time he hears that musical little dusting hit the back of his head--the connection with another plant, the connection with his brother--he bites it back. ]

youre right
there isnt anyway to know if it'll be good or bad until i try
right
youre right

...thank you takame
and im sorry
he's a... troublesome kid, with some attitude problems
but
he hasn't turned into a monster yet
i dont think
so...

i have to try
maybe if he grows up with kind people around him
instead of alone

No one is born with the intent to do wrong.

[Not even him, though it took his mother telling him about his first four years to consider it.

Almost three decades of bloodshed and proven pessimism were just hard to shake.

The longer he considered hypotheticals of this conversation, the more uncomfortable he began to get. For once he was grateful for his relative monotone.]

You've no reason to apologize. I can only wish you luck.

thank you takame
i mean it
ill need some... time, to get settled with this, i think

id like to visit you again soon
we can have a good long talk then
and hopefully things might be a bit clearer
by then

but i cant help it haha
