So I found this in my room this morning... [Kaworu, whose left arm is in a cast, holds up a choker with his good hand. It's black, metal, and has a red section in the front and center.] It's not the first time I've gained an item in such a manner, but I wasn't there for the event on Halloween night everyone else seems to be getting something from. So, I'm a little confused about what I got this for, but also because...

[He frowns and twirls the collar around on his index finger.] What is this? It looks like a collar, but it won't open so I can't put it on, and I don't know what it could possibly be for. Has anyone seen a collar like this before? I don't really know what to do with it.

We're all privileged to be a part of something bigger than ourselves. Don't be so ungrateful.

[wirsinddiejager]

ok no Im not saying theres nothing good about all of this. but being GRATEFUL for it is too much.

[shouldertheburden]

I can't say my life was interesting or fulfilling before I got involved in this. Maybe it's just different for me, but grateful is the word I would use, yes.

[wirsinddiejager]

yeah well my life was fine. the only good thing thats come out of all this for me has been meeting my girlfriend. which is awesome yeah but everything else is still total shit.

[shouldertheburden]

Just because it isn't fun doesn't mean it won't lead to important and valuable and important experiences. I guess I value that, is all.

[wirsinddiejager]

not everyones gonna feel the same way dude. dont tell me how Im supposed to deal with things.

[shouldertheburden]

That's what most people I talk to here tend to tell me.

[wirsinddiejager]

maybe because most people dont appreciate some sanctimonious asshole preaching at them.

[shouldertheburden]

Is it really fair to call me an a**hole for encouraging others to see things in a positive light?

[wirsinddiejager]

oh my god did you seriously just censor yourself. never mind youre not an asshole youre hilarious.

[shouldertheburden]

I don't like to use foul language in public venues is all! But thank you, I suppose?

[wirsinddiejager]

seriously though the preaching is still annoying. people dont want to be told theyre ungrateful just because they dont agree with you.

[shouldertheburden]

It's not a matter of agreeing with me...at least it's not my intention. Nobody seems to understand my sentiment.

[wirsinddiejager]

then the problems with you and not other people. try explaining what you mean BEFORE you start telling people how they should think.
