do you suppose it is ever truly possible to escape the circumstances of your birth?
to escape destiny?

awfully optimistic words for a stranger

you don't know what sort of wickedness i'm talking about here, after all

[ But really, even knowing him so briefly, it's as much as he expects from someone so earnest as Cisco. ]

[franciscoramon]

you're right: i don't know you or your situation
and maybe it is totally optimistic and naive

but in my experience, the worst people don't question themselves
and they don't don't ask for input
they just do what they want and take what they want and then justify it later
with a lot of mumbo jumbo about having no other options

that's one of the reasons i don't believe in fate
cuz it's the kind of bullshit concept that creeps use to move blame off themselves
and make it sound like every awful thing they do was inevitable

[imperceptus]

solid points, solid points

in my case the matter of destiny is less about what i'll do

and more about what will be done to me

but it's the kind of justification i can see him using

[ whoever that might be. ]

[franciscoramon]

like what?
might as well get it off your chest if you want to
we're all anon here anyway

and obviously i don't know who you mean but
if he's anything like the person i knew who used to say stuff like that to me
he's a real grade-a douchebag and someone to avoid at all costs

[imperceptus]

yeah i really don't want to, though

you're certainly right on that point. i would love to avoid him for literally ever

but i can't.

[franciscoramon]

fair enough

sounds complicated and fucked up
probably another thing you don't wanna talk about, right?
just taking a guess

well i hope something'll change in the future to solve that
you shouldn't have to be around somebody like that

[imperceptus]

it is absolutely both of those things

thanks for the kind words

good of you to take the time.

[ not that he's surprised. ]
