On his acceptance to an only villains game...

[seconddarkest]

[going to cityofrot; muse not happy]


I disapprove that you consider me suitably villainous enough to be in a game that only accepts villains. You know I have every good intention and am doing what I can for the greater good and yet you still applied and am happy that I am accepted to be in such an evil crowd....

I do not know how you expect me to fit in there, mun. That Voldemort on the other hand....

That's the worst of it?! My so called mun is telling me, that we don't get anything but the clothes off of our back there.

^{Something having to earn our items back}

[seconddarkest]

That means that I will have lost the Elder Wand... But it does not leave me helpless.

[crackpotcrocker]

HOW DARE THEY TAKE MY TRACKER FROM ME! [That just sounded Golem twisted]

[Beat] What are you? A wizard?

[seconddarkest]

Yes. And I know all about you...

[crackpotcrocker]

........ I think my mun is keeping things from me again. DON'T YOU THINK YOU DO THAT ENOUGH?!

[Groan]

[seconddarkest]

My mun tells me everything. [As far as he's aware of...]

Not to worry. I am a friend.

[crackpotcrocker]

Good for you then. I wish my own mun, was a good as yours.

I don't want any friends. I thought I had something special with someone else and they just dropped me. [Quite literally]

[greeneyedoe]

They're happy you were accepted in an evil crowd? Merlin, you have a charming mun.

[seconddarkest]

They apparently like villains...

[greeneyedoe]

Are you a villain?

[seconddarkest]

They say that I am. I disagree.

Unfortunately, history is written by the winners - they make themselves look good while twisting the facts.

[greeneyedoe]

People are...complicated. I'm sure you have good traits. [ Though that's impossible to imagine when it comes to Voldemort. ] Anyone is better than Voldemort.

[seconddarkest]

I am nothing like Voldemort even though some people do like to put us in the same category.

[greeneyedoe]

Based on what? Your views? How you enforce them?

[seconddarkest]

The latter, I believe. My methods were perhaps... too harsh.

[greeneyedoe]

At least you can admit that.

[ . . . ]

How do you feel about Muggles and Muggleborns?

[seconddarkest]

Muggleborns I have no problem with. They are born with magic and can be just as powerful as any other wizard or witch.

Muggles need to be shown and taught to not use, murder or torture us for their own ends or amusements. If the Statute of Secrecy could be removed then they would have to accept us - eventually - and then all could live in harmony.

The fault mostly lies with the Ministry and their old fashioned views. And those wizards who refuse to accept change.

[greeneyedoe]

Would you just assume that all Muggles are incapable of accepting Magic and not misusing it for their own gains? How would you teach them to treat Wizards and Witches with equality and respect?

[ So many bad outcomes could come of this. Frankly, the entire idea makes her nervous. ]

I'm a Muggleborn and my parents fully accept and support me. But I know not all Muggles are like that.

[seconddarkest]

Any Muggle - or wizard, for that matter - who cannot accept and treat others correctly will be dealt with. As harshly as is necessary.... Until they and others can learn to live peacefully side by side. Even if they have to be made an example of first.

Even if some need to die to make that point.

Unfortunately it seems that I never even got past the vast majority of the wizarding world wanting to keep set in their ways, living in their false security of a caged world. So how well the Muggles would have accepted us, I do not know.

Hey, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Cool

[seconddarkest]

So they say...

Re: Cool

[dickandharry]

Well, that and really dumb plans.

[seconddarkest]

My plans are solid but people just won't accept them.

[dickandharry]

Because they're dumb. Seriously, wizards can barely run their own governments. What made you think it'd be any different when running Muggle ones?

[seconddarkest]

That is because they have no foresight or boldness in doing what must be done.
