Hey everyone, I have a purely hypothetical question for all of you. What would you do if you accidentally, through absolutely no fault of your own, you did something really bad? Wait, no, not did something bad, just caused something bad. Say you, oh, I don’ t know, accidentally doomed a City or something. What would you do? Try to fix it? Find a way to make up for the demise of a major metropolis? Flee the country? Commit hari-kari to escape becoming a hunted pariah and despised by everybody? I was just, you know, curious about ethical dilemmas and thought I’d ask. Part of a growing boy's curiosity about life's complexities, haha, no other reason!

By the way, and this is completely unrelated and also hypothetical, which is further away from the City? Mexico or the Yukon?

Man, I’ve got to get that stupid pirate to tell another story...

Intentions matter less than results.

...and the Yukon.

[magicalworld]

Thanks! So the important thing is that the metropolis is doomed, and the accident doesn't matter, right? Is that a vote for hari-kari then?

[xuffasch]

Tt. Cities are always doomed, anyhow. It's what they do.

HI ANGELICA! HOW ARE YOU DOING!

[Oh that is so strange why did Calvin's voice just jump several octaves]

[radiantly]

Calvin. What did you do?

[so privated]

[liarboo.livejournal.com]

Don't be stupid! It's my power. [Stop trying to hog his glory or something.]

[so incredibly privated it will warp reality]

[magicalworld]

Exactly! This is obviously your power, that means it's your fault! I'm not gonna be grounded until I'm twenty because of your dinosaurs! You've gotta fix this!

[The hell he was being all magnanimous and now he's throwing it back in his face. Kids. He'll handle this maturely]

You're the one that fed me the whole story, so maybe it is your fault after all!

[shiromadoushi]

... what did you do?

[Voice : Private]

[magicalworld]

NOTHING! What would ever make you think that?! Haha, oh Bakura, you and your crazy ideas!

[Voice : Private]

[shiromadoushi]

[[a pause for this face]]

Has anyone ever told you you don't have a good poker face? [[makes a note to help him with that. Even if it is amusing as anything]]

And I'm not going to tell or get mad, honest. [[he already has a pretty good idea just based on the timing.]]

[a_relative_hero]

[He sighs.]

Own up to it, take responsibility for what happened, and then try to fix things.

[A small pause.]

And next time, try not to make your connection to it so obvious if you're so worried about being a hunted pariah.

[magicalworld]

Who's obvious?! What's obvious?! I have no idea what you're talking about!

[Encrypted to Calvin.]

[a_relative_hero]

Calvin, I had a hunch you were connected to things when we talked about the water gun and lion. And your hypothetical question...kinda made it obvious. I have a younger brother and sister so I'm used to this.

So, I'm not mad at you and I'm not going to go around telling everyone but this all needed to get fixed. So...do you know how and can I help?

[zapswithmagic.livejournal.com]

Well. I did something like that once, kind of. I tried to fix it. Running away wouldn't have solved anything and would have just made things worse.

[Video]

[magicalworld]

Really? So were you able to fix it?

[voice]

[notadartboard]

That pirate...?

Ugh. I should have known.

[voice]

[magicalworld]

...You know him?

video!

[outspeeds.livejournal.com]

Try to fix it, of course! If you do it fast enough, maybe no one would notice.

video!

[magicalworld]

[Calvin looks nervous]

Okay, but what if it's been a long time already? Like, say, a week or so.

[This is a scowling face :c ]

Tell me you're NOT the reason I spent the better part of a day on all fours.

[magicalworld]

[This is a sheepish face]

Okay Topher, I am NOT the reason you spent the better part of a day on all fours.

[lyingbrat.livejournal.com]

Calvin, do you know something about what's going on?

Private;

[magicalworld]

NO! WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP ASKING ME THAT? I'M COMPLETELY INNOCENT I TELL YOU! INNOCENT!
