I have a question for you, if you don't mind answering; it's a little personal, though, and if you don't want to discuss things then I can be all right with that.
I'm not really a professional or anything quite yet, but social work is my field of study and I have my friend who's handling something similar besides. Things like that aren't particularly strange to me, if you ever need to talk about it.
I'm not insisting that you should, given that we barely know each other, but the offer is still there, and it's something I've been wondering about with regards to you, that's all.
I see. I've never really been involved in the social sciences at all. My family focuses on business, and also biology to a lesser extent, so I'm not all that familiar with things like this.
I guess it's natural to wonder about something like that after a display like mine. I'm still sorry for being embarrassing.
[He pauses a little once that's out there; he isn't the best at empathy for this sort of thing, because death is a constant part of his reality. He knows, on some level, that everyone he kills has a family and a life outside of the purpose he sets them to, but it's not really something he can think about for too long. He's had his own period of darkness in his life regarding things like that, after all.]
I don't deserve an apology for that, since I'm the one who killed him.
[It's... hard to type it. It's his responsibility, and he knew that, but... it's hard every time that he admits it. He's... pretty sure he was wrong. Takatora may have been naive, but he shouldn't have killed him. Incapacitated him, maybe.]
I guess. It sounds like him, it looks like him... but he doesn't say the same things. He's not the same person. I shouldn't even be saying that it's him, because it's not.
For what it's worth, I don't think you're a terrible person.
Maybe what you did was unforgivable, maybe it was justified, I don't know the situation. But as someone who's done their own share of questionable things, I don't think you're terrible as an individual.

Date: 2015-03-12 05:18 am (UTC)Don't mention it; if nothing else, I like being useful to people when I can.
May I ask who it was that you were seeing? If it's something you can tell me.

For what it's worth, I'm sorry for your loss.
