old men attempt to save teen from his disaster self and his ex-roommate

I meant in general, the whole two months we've been here.

[ there's a bit of a pang at "are you not tired of cycles" but he quickly shoves it aside ]

What I'm tired of is getting thrown around like the universe's plaything and not being able to do anything about it. Why am I supposed to just take it like it's a harmless little prank? What makes him so special that he's exempt from all of it?

Don't be dramatic. No one said that you're supposed to take it that way.

[ :/

also good. feel that pang! FEEL IT. HE SAID IT ON PURPOSE. ]

Remember that those of us on the living side have not been as privy to who did what. I've only confronted Hanako about what he's done as of Sunday; I had my own theories, but I don't like to make baseless accusations.

I'll reiterate. Nothing you do to make him "fear the consequences" will actually make him fear the consequences, because that is not the kind of person that he is. It will solve nothing. It will potentially just end in more violence, and cause more problems. The bridges you thought that you burned were not taken to ashes, and instead tentatively offered forward. What logic is there in setting them aflame again?

I'm not going to burn any of those bridges. But he's the one who burnt down the one between us in the first place. I was happy to assume a truce with him, and then he went and killed me anyway. Why am I meant to assume responsibility for that?

Besides, if there's no bridge to burn, then it's really just...kicking the ashes he made back into his face.

We're not saying you have to take any responsibility at all for what happened between you two, 'cause obviously that was on him and not you. We're just saying don't do anything that'd make things messier now, which is... most things you could to do him, probably.
