[At some time in the late afternoon, near evening, an anonymous message appears on the network.]

Hello Vatheon.

I was hoping a discussion could be had on a few things.

The topic is Ignorance and Perspective.

It is a very easy thing to categorize two different sides into ideas of good and evil, or right and wrong.

That kind of view sinks into society and can blind them from seeing things clearly no matter which side an individual is on.

A soldier on the opposing side is more than just an enemy to be extinguished even if you cannot see it.

They are doing a job and trying to protect those close to them.

They are trying to survive.

They are trying to do the best they can for themselves which is all any individual could want.

To deviate from their path could make their whole life seem worthless up to that point.

How much does it take before ignorance is no longer an excuse?

In a world where you are taught to trust few because there is no telling who will betray you, how can you let go to trust the words of another, especially one who is claimed to be the worst enemy you would ever know?

What if their words seem to make some sort of sense that goes against all you have fought for your entire life?

Could you betray the trust, affection, and lives of your comrades, people you have known for years, just because of a moment of doubt?

If you work with only what you know, what perhaps you are allowed to know, yet you do the best you can, how much does that exempt you?

Finally, if the side that opposed you offers forgiveness for what you have done to them, what would you do?

Please feel free to deviate slightly from the questions asked.

All you need to do is more or less stay on the idea of ignorance and perspective.

I was making a point.

As you say.

So I'm right then. Tell me I'm right.

Didn't I just tell you that you were wrong?

In one assessment, sure, but over all, I'm right, and you're being a pansy ass.

I am not!

You are. And now you're being a stubborn pansy ass.

Name calling has no place in this discussion and if you continue then I by no means must continue it with you!

Well you started out wanting to run around in circles like a jungle fowl with it's head cut off, I figured name calling would be fine. So are we going to actually talk like adults now?

How can you claim acting like an adult when you were the first to resort to namecalling?

And you're avoiding the point once again. You certainly are good at ignoring your own problems.

If only I was so good at ignoring your messages.

I suggest you focus on more pressing issues, like your terrible lack of respect for yourself.

[...Low blow. Ref? Ref?]

I respect myself.

[Ref says it's good, game on.]

Not enough to confront your problems head on. Instead you tip toe around them like about to hit glass shard. Just put your feet down, man, stand tall.

You seem to be assuming a lot of things.

I'm really not. It's pretty obvious you're avoiding the actual topic here since we haven't been talking about it at all really. All prompted by you.

You are.

I never said I wasn't going to go and confront this properly.

All right, cool, then do it.

I will. Soon.

I hope so, if not, the only person you're fucking over is yourself.

I know.

Well, not all true. It'll be fucking over the people that care about you too.

I would not want to trouble them in such a way.

I'd hope not, so face your damn problems already.
