He was...
Chimere effed him up HARD.
He was sitting funny and he looked like he was in a lot of pain. He also looked like someone had given him a black eye at some point, but according to Daniel, Chimere never punched him in the face. Maybe Slender distributes bitch slaps now, I don't know.
Anyway, I...is it weird that I actually felt terrible? I mean, yeah, I still hate him and think he's an asshole, but seeing him like that...
I just...I actually apologized to him after class.
I know, I'm stupid and soft, but I felt bad. He just...it was sad. And I felt terrible.
His response:
"Never, EVER apologize to me again, you little BITCH. Do you hear me?"
And then, as he started walking away:
"I would keep an eye on that alter ego of yours. She is no better than I am and you know it."
...What scares me is that he's probably right. I know she's on our side and all, but...
That was...that was just overkill. That wasn't necessary. If I had to hurt him I'd just take him out and get it over with. I wouldn't...that was inches away from torture. It's not right.
Daniel's still a little...out of it after everything that happened.
I wish there was something I could do.

Look on the bright side. She could easily have killed him, but she didn't. Honestly, I THOUGHT she did, but apparently she didn't.
ReplyDeleteIt's NOT right, Alora, and I know exactly how you feel. I am an honest-to-god pacifist; I have trouble throwing a punch at training dummies, and I once cried when I accidentally killed a spider. But you have to remember that what MC's doing isn't right either. And I'm not saying that he deserved what he got, I'm just saying that he is FAR from a victim.
Yeah, you're right on both counts. I still feel terrible, though. :/
ReplyDeleteIt's also making me ask all these deep philosophical questions about whether she did it or I did it since it's my body, and since she's sort of an alter-ego split does that technically still make her me, and ARGH MY BRAIN. x.x
I should really just stop over-thinking this, shouldn't I?
Keep in mind what a Minecraft Creeper DOES. It charges at you, and explodes, killing you and probably destroying all the gear you'd put together up until now. If that's his plan, get ready for a good old fashioned suicide attack.
ReplyDeleteThey say there's no kill like overkill - I - I'm not a great thinker, Alora, but you're a good person and he's a bastard. You shouldn't just absolve yourself of responsibility, alter ego or no, but it wasn't...it's...I guess Hakurei said it already. He's far from a victim. Don't beat yourself up about it too hard, or else you'll be the one with the...metaphorical...internal...mental black eyes.
ReplyDelete@ASage: LOL. ^^
ReplyDelete@Arnold: Yeah, I guess you're right. I just get guilty really easily sometimes. Especially when it comes to hurting other people, even if it's on accident/done by a split personality.
