[ A BIG, HEAVY SIGH. ]

i did try to meet you halfway
i tried to listen and you know i really WANTED to listen
but you mostly kept giving me insults and hostility
it wasnt about liking your attitude man
it was about actually being able to hear what you have to say when you dont cover it in so much barbed wire

because if id known all along that you wanted to TALK to people about this
to advise them about the consequences and the options
thats what you mean right?
not rounding them all up and shoving them in cages
then we could have saved ourselves a lot of time here
because i basically said as much a couple of ways back


[ present people with the options. tell them what's at stake, if they don't already realize it. trust in them to make the decision to lock themselves up. kagari hadn't been stressing that part — the communication. ]

thats what i meant about treating people like monsters or animals
not locking them up individually
but FORCING them into it
and not allowing them to make that choice for themselves


[ you know. like you were forced into it, kagari. speaking of... ]

im not gonna get into what you had to go through
i dont know the half of it and we both know that
it sounds like a real crappy situation but all ive got are words that you probably dont want or care about
but ill say this: we arent in your world anymore
the rules are different now
you can either adapt or fit things into boxes that might not even exist anymore
its pretty much up to you what you do with that

...oh
and if you genuinely want to help, then help
dont wait for someone to ask you to
