[Man. That's some heavy stuff, Ardyn. To be someone that heals others, just to wind up suffering yourself from all the sickness you took from them in the first place... Dante lets out a low whistle.]

gotta say, prof, that sounds like a pretty bum rap to me. you do all this work to save people and there's no way to save yourself?

maybe the thing we've all got in common is shit pasts

[daemonized]

If there was a way, I don't remember it. Odd thing is, though, I /knew/ what I was doing, what the consequences of my actions would be. But I was keen on it anyway, for the sake of aiding others. This other me was a very altruistic sort of person. I'm almost jealous.

Like I said, the story is still incomplete. There might be a ray of hope in yours and in mine; it's only a matter of it revealing itself. No need to assume it's all doom and gloom.

[darkinferno]

don't be too jealous, things never end well for people like that. the world takes you for all you're worth and then throws you away when you've given them everything you've got

[He might be a little bit cynical about the world.]

but you're right, we don't know everything yet. there might be something left we don't know

[daemonized]

[Wow, Dante. That's pretty dark right there. And yet, Ardyn can't seem to bring himself to argue against it. What grounds did he have to say it wasn't the case? He didn't know. All he could do was make assumptions.]

Discarded like trash? I do hope not. It would make for a traumatizing experience, don't you think?

[darkinferno]

what, are you trying to tell me i'm wrong? take a look around, nobody does charity work for the good of mankind or whatever reason they give. they do it for the photo ops

[daemonized]

Rather cynical of you. While I can't deny that may be true for some people, surely you can't believe that /all/ of them are in it for the fame and fortune. I can think of a few individuals who have sacrificed much of themselves for the greater good.

[darkinferno]

yeah? and how'd work out for them?

[daemonized]

Results vary. But if it's what they wanted to do, who are we to judge?

[darkinferno]

human, i'd say

but sure if they want to do that then fine

i'm just saying don't be jealous of them

[daemonized]

Has anyone told you that you've a very skewed way of looking at the world? Ah, but perhaps that's merely the folly of youth and little more.

[darkinferno]

just calling it like i see it, prof

when the world decides to change i'll change my tune along with it
