There is no problem in deciding to take actions so long as you are thoughtful of what results they will produce. No one will admonish you for trying, but they can push the results that they wish to see because they will be achieved if you want them to be.

[ Arima's not so gracious as to give you pity for trying to channel a character no one knows the root motivations are, who is barely seen, and really barely talks. Scrutinize every little word he says in Jack some more, Mun. Scream at Ishida for not including more and more of his interactions with the CCG and the general human. Wonder some more if he's more than just "sadistic and massive". ]

You apply the theory and interpretation you have well. It would be better if you became stronger so you wouldn't hear those voices in your head, Mun.

[ It's slightly a joke, but more of a reference. He expects you to get it. You read.

Also you should replace the icons you so graciously stole from your friend and use the ones you made yourself. You're a sluggish, lazy ass, Mun. ]

[ it's you. the pale figure in the field of corpses, the reaper, the one who'd slain friends and allies and pinned kaneki to the floor like a trapped insect. his head still aches when he remembers it, a dull and ugly throb.

kaneki isn't afraid of him, but the sight of him makes him want to shriek all the same. he wants that effortless strength, the power to protect his loved ones. ]

You-- [ unafraid, yes, but certainly wary. ] You expect a lot. [ asking writers to think things through entirely-- it shouldn't be asking much, but it is in the end. considering where he is at the moment, after all.. ]

[corpsebloom]

[ That day was the day Ixa broke, Arima was able to see a real reaction to the folly of death.

You tried so hard, Kaneki.

Strength is for those who are born with it or work. Call it a mix between both, and a cool head for Arima. ]

If that is a lot in your eyes, there's no doubt on why you lost.

[ His voice drips with tired, make the conversation end sooner rather than later. Whether there are amiable ghouls in the world, one that had such a magnificent breakdown would probably not be negotiable. ]

[centipedal]

[ his jaw clenches, teeth grinding, a distraction from the ache in his skull. it's just phantom pain, anyway-- he's long-recovered. (physically, at least.) ]

It's not. [ not 'a lot' in his eyes, not why he'd lost. ] I'm telling you because I've watched them.

[ and he's been here.. a little while. not as long as some, but long enough to notice the patterns. ]

[corpsebloom]

...There is nothing wrong with appreciating the hard work with others, but where is the divide between a handicap, someone that makes battle more manageable, and a comrade?

[ Assuming you catch the analogy.

He's not completely heartless. Many a time if someone wanted to come with him on an investigation with the right amount of desire, he would let them come and adjust to their uselessness. Don't paint such misleading pictures; though--

they are all too well justified. ]

i cant believe you-know-who is dw user sasarious

[jesustree]

Not worried about your mun? Or not showing it?

did the "daddy" give him away? he's also v14 if you're wondering.

[corpsebloom]

Accuracy has no correlation with caring.

no i went on your blog 1/2

[jesustree]

There are many ways of looking at something.

[jesustree]

Do you really not care about how others look at one version of you and distinguish it from another?

[ Don't be an ass, Joshua. ]

what an ace detective you are, joshua

[corpsebloom]

Even the same people act differently under different circumstances. However they want to interpret me or find it accurate is their business, not mine.

[ Please he's just a sad, misunderstood innocent ghoul investigator who's trying to feed a family, obviously. Or sadistic and massive. You can't win with these people. ]

private dick extraordinaire is an actual line, so-

[jesustree]

Sounds like you were giving your mun a pep talk there. Your mun must care about your interpretation more than you personally, then.

damn if i still had my ipad, i would play twewy, ds is something else

[corpsebloom]

If this is the best they can do with the information they have [ --he knows, he's watched them read the same chapters over, and over, and over again trying to piece together what little there is-- ] and they find it as accurate as it can be, then it is the best it is. In the eyes of the beholder.

[ As long as he's not doing anything ridiculous like drink his mind away and dance on the table naked or something as droll as that, there's really no problem. ]

A mere confidence issue, really, there is nothing more my mun can do about it than wait for more information and do more with it.

sage i'll mail you my copy of twewy i s3g

[jesustree]

Nothing to worry about if your muse has this much faith in you then, Mun. Muses don't usually feel the need to justify their portrayal, after all.

[ Hee hee. ]

[godrobe]

[ Flatly. ] Huh.

I got no idea what came out of your mouth there but, [ She scratches the back of her head. ] it oughta be alright if the mun knows what they're doin'? Seems like it won't go too badly based on whatever you just said.

[corpsebloom]

So as long as they don't let their guard down. Carelessness and comfort are humanity's enemies.

[godrobe]

Eeeeh. Change is inevitable if you stay in a game for too long. Makes your mun's interpretation of you more distinct? S' not really about carelessness in the end.

[corpsebloom]

[ He's judging you too, sailor uniform girl. ] At what point is change too much for a game? When the development of a character and his original are so different, does that still make that mun an excellent voice for their muse?

[godrobe]

[ Excuse me, at least she's not wearing Senketsu. ] Then it's about whatever alternate universe stuff you can justify, isn't it? Aghh, point is, your mun's doin' fine. You can worry about voice adjustment and all that shit later when you actually get into a game...?

[ She forgot to ask. ] Are you going anywhere?

[corpsebloom]

Most likely not. [ This mun's a bit too afraid and inexperienced with DW lore to explore more than the little private and the vague post on dear_mun. ]

[godrobe]

I get you, it can get kinda overwhelming to join games if the mun doesn't feel up to it. You'll get used to showing your face around here or on memes eventually. 'Just go with what feels natural' and all that.

[magecamp]

Ooh.. I wish I could hear voices in my head. [ sagely nod ] You should consider yourself lucky to be in the hands of someone so gifted, uh-huh.

[corpsebloom]

I'm sure those voices are more an impediment than a gift to them.

[magecamp]

Aw, that can't be true.

In fact, I bet two wyvern skulls that it's gonna be a real useful talent some day. Like, imagine all the stuff the voices could tell you about throwing a party or breeding maggots. Wow!

[corpsebloom]

I'm afraid a figment of their subconscious cannot have more information than what they genuinely encounter by themselves with all their awares because they must process it in some way at first. The human brain does not work like a collective.
