[backdated to the 3-4 a.m. hours after mission end/return!

just a brief video, though, because Marty's not having any of this. black rings under the eyes, a weary, frustrated look on his face...and one long huff as he manages to find the right button and switch that shit off.

[septim]

[ Divines, Martin. ] Isolating yourself won't solve whatever problem it is you have. [ Pot, kettle, both black. ]

[theguideless]

[ugh and an annoying teenager kettle at that.] Yes it will

[septim]

No, it won't. Nothing changes if you don't take an active step to change whatever it is that is wrong.

[theguideless]

Thats what im doing

[septim]

You are taking an active step to change whatever it is?

[theguideless]

This is the story of a man who toyed with forces he didn't comprehend. He was a fool. For his hubris, he was struck down. Saw his friends perish in front of him. He nearly died himself.

And then for nearly a month he wallowed in self-pity. Like a child, he blamed the gods and others for his misfortune. He refused to see that everything that had happened to him was his own damned fault.

[theguideless]

I know
I guess i dont know what better i can say
You were nice to me but dont have to be and i cant do anything like that
Im glad you didnt get hurt when everything went bad but i dont think i should be talking to you anymore

[caligulas_aquarium]

Luckily, a kind priest kept checking on him, day after day. Eventually, he got the man to realize that, yes, he was a fool. But the bitter wisdom that one has been a fool is not without value, so he should honor the memory of those who'd died by not giving up on himself, even if everyone else had.

Stop wallowing in your own misery. Nothing changes that way. Learn from your mistakes, but don't let them rule you.

[theguideless]

Nobody its my fault not yours or anyones
I dont want to mess up anyone else

[theguideless]

[a lengthy delay for reading/pondering/INTERNALIZING BASELESS ARGUMENTS AND ACCUSATIONS/etc.]

I dont think this is the same for things like me im sorry
Theres nobody to blame but me and i keep getting people killed
Staying with people doesnt hellp
Im not supposed to anyway its not allowed but i kept breaking the rules and thats why this is hpappening

[septim]

This is happening because we are at war, not because you are breaking rules.
