Shinji, you need to understand that I'm mad because everything has snowballed. You need to be upfront with me and tell me what's going on. Ever since... ever since I almost lost you, I haven't been able to think of anything other than "I wasn't there."

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

You want to know everything? Ok, fine lets start with the whole reason why I'm screwed up. From the very beginning.

*goes into detailed about the issues iwth his childhood first, his dad slaughtering his whole family, him coming ot ifnd out it was out of self defense, them rekindling, the nobility war and its affects on him, Mordric aka Kirina in disguise, his whole relationship with kirina, the torture and r**e he experienced from being captured, every single detial from first to last. His face looked extremely pained through it all, and eventually, ears run down his face from being forced ot relive every traumatic event in his life via this argument*

*Hugs you and holds you close*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*holds onto tightly, sobbing into your shoulder, clinging to you as if my life depended on it*

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Different risks, certainly.

<Snipped quote by System>

Scorched earth is something I want to avoid. But it’s always possible later if it proves to be the necessary and exclusive way.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

We may not have the opportunity later. But regardless, do you sense the fraudulent elements nearby?

<Snipped quote by System>

*Shakes my head*

*Looks up as the view of the ziggurat becomes towering from where we stand, and mild ripples of energy resonate from openings near the entrance at the top, akin visually to the likes of a heat wave*

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

It'll be okay...

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Taps at the base of the tower, gauging the composition of the structure*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

...I hope so....

<Snipped quote by System>

*It appears to be made out of simple, primitive adobe bricks, and I tentatively take a single step onto the base of the staircase to the top*

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

*Gently pats your back in the embrace*
It's all going to be okay. I'm here now. I won't ever do anything to hurt you.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

......

*looks at you, eyes glazed over with fear*

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

It's okay... I will be your rock.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

It may be trapped. I would exercise caution.

<Snipped quote by Blabbo>

Took this long to make the gap so wide that you can’t argue it any more.

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

How bout we test your little opinion.

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

I....I'm sorry.....

<Snipped quote by System>

I don’t think so. At least not in any elemental way… I guess there’s more than just that in play, this time.
