Everyone believes themselves to be in the right in one way or another, no matter what they're doing - whether it was planned or simply a good idea at the time. After all, no one does anything that they genuinely believe to be a bad idea.

Personally, I don't know if I've ever done that exactly, just because it's not the way I tend to operate. At the same time, I work closely with someone who's done many, many terrible things; he's murdered a good amount of people - slaughtered them, really - and he's tortured a few for the sake of seeing his goal through. I don't know if he even remembers what his goal is anymore; I think it's shifted more toward revenge than anything, if you want me to be honest.

To hear him talk, though...he believes that he's saving people. Protecting them from bad people, despite everything he's doing himself.

I used to think that. It's... hard. I honestly thought I was saving her from a horrible fate.

I don't know what to do about this relationship. She reminds me so much of Mai. I really should pull away, but I don't want to hurt her... but I might hurt her more. I don't know if she'll take 'no' for an answer, either.

[preybeforemeals]

...Not to be rude, amore, but what made you come to me with this?

I'm not bothered, just slightly confused.

[grapeeater]

Because you're

['My friend', he almost types, but he doesn't.]

the person I talk to most who has the most common sense.

[preybeforemeals]

Consider me flattered, then.

I'm assuming you want a relationship with this girl, at any rate?

[grapeeater]

At least some sort. We do have some common interests, like dancing.

[And he already promised to protect her. He's in too deep.]
