On considering Rakuen

[soulcastrato]

Dear mun,

This game, it's perfect for me. Please, mun, let me go. I want to serve one of the players at this "Rakuen".

You know I've wanted to get out of your head for so long. Away from everyone I knew who would be hurt to see me like this, but at this game, this game there might be a master for me that won't abuse me, who I could serve, but anyone would be fine. I'm just garbage after all. I would understand if instead of bringing me there you would just throw me away for being so presumptuous to ask.

there remains a chance of you becoming a discard.
but those odds are renewed every week. you have just as good of a chance to become a player.
i do not think there are many among us who count ourselves worthless in the arena. though some prefects have less than honorable opinions of the rest of us.

[soulcastrato]

I don't want to be a player. I'm not good enough to be one. Being a discard would be fine. I would understand.

you won't have much choice in the matter, i'm afraid. all of us are players at some time or another.
you'll increase your sense of worth here or pay the price. it's necessary for survival.

[soulcastrato]

Me? A player?

I'm sure I'll survive. That's all I am good for. I'm the street urchin that just leeches on people and survives....

[overthroen]

a leader. an opportunist. an entrepreneur.
you'll find it far easier to survive in rakuen, i believe. well, as long as you play by the rules.
you'll receive a bed, as well.

[soulcastrato]

Really? A bed? just for playing their game?

[overthroen]

among other things.
it's by no means an easy game, mind you.

[soulcastrato]

Living on the streets isn't easy either.
