All of the noise aside:

Why abide by a system that's already broken?

What would the other choice be?

[text][unhackable]

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

That depends on what you want.

[text][unhackable]

[liveinthefuture.livejournal.com]

I think the question is what do you want?

[text][unhackable]

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

What I want is irrelevant to the question.

Some will understand it; others won't.

What they do with that knowledge -- or lack thereof, as the case may be -- is for them to decide.

Re: [text][unhackable]

[liveinthefuture.livejournal.com]

I don't think that it is irrelevant.

If you're trying to incite something, you'd do better to be more specific.

A shame you'll never have an answer to that question, isn't it?

If I were 'trying to incite something', I'd have used more specific language. As it is, people can take what they want from the question, without having another opinion forced on them from the start.

Hey, you're the one posing questions to the network that you refuse to clarify or quantify.

[text][unhackable]

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

If the people considering this question cannot clarify or quantify for themselves, the point of the query is moot.

I already linked the Police Chief's ridiculous if not justified outrage over the release of several prisoners. What more 'clarification' do you require?

[meowminx]

Not all of us do.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

I'm aware.

[drawthesun.livejournal.com]

Some people like to pretend the world is 'fair.'

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

And for those that don't?

[drawthesun.livejournal.com]

I'd imagine we're the ones who don't cling to a broken system.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

Curious.

In my experience, even those who understand that the world isn't fair attempt to abide by the given rules.

[drawthesun.livejournal.com]

They probably believe they can make it fair somehow. I've seen enough to know that's not true. We can try to make it better, but the world will never be perfect.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

Of course not.

But is it worth that effort, knowing some of the work will undoubtedly go to waste?

[drawthesun.livejournal.com]

I think it is. I'm well aware that there are people that don't. I can't make everything perfect, but if I can help some people, at least, that's good enough for me.

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

Hi Knives.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

Vash.

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

You fix the system, or make up a new one.

How've you been?

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

Naturally.

As well as can be expected.

Yourself?

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

Pretty good. All this business with switched powers hasn't touched me yet, but a lot of others down at the precinct were, so things are confusing right now.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

So I hear.

Lucky you.

[Someone's still sore about being human for a week.]

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

What about you?

[and someone's oblivious]

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

What about what.

[Dammit, Vash, why do you do this?]

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

[I just want to know what's going on with my big brother! D:]

Did you get your powers switched?

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

[WHY CAN'T YOU BE INTELLIGENT AND JUST *KNOW* THESE THINGS?]

Yes.

[I DON'T READ MINDS, YOU KNOW.]

That sucks.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

[AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO, DAMMIT.

Also, you get THIS FACE as your response, Vash.]

[private; encrypted] gosh I miss my icons

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

[BUT THAT'S NOT HOW PLANT TELEPATHY WORKS! ;A;]

It wasn't something inconvenient at least?

[private; encrypted] herk if i were not so low on moneys i'd get you more T_T

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

[YOU SHOULDN'T NEED PLANT TELEPATHY TO KNOW YOUR OWN BROTHER, DAMMIT.]

I was human for a week.

[As if that explains it all.]

[private; encrypted] I'm sorry bro he gets that it was unpleasant! That's why he changed the subject

[plantpacifist.livejournal.com]

[I DO KNOW HIM! THAT DOESN'T MEAN I KNOW ALL HE'S THINKING!]

How does that work?!









So did you feel any more irrational and unintelligent and violent while that was happening?

[notlikeanyone]

It can be fixed. And it's better than falling into chaos.

[returntoeven.livejournal.com]

You already know my thoughts on this.
