[Here's a face that some likely haven't seen for a while on the network, or even around that much. He looks somewhat thoughtful playing with a blue scarab. He knew he hadn't been that social the last few months around the place, but between pretty much all of his friends - He admitted now that they were in fact, friends that he missed – vanishing or going home, he was feeling lost.

Contemplating things hadn't been helpful either, much to his dismay. But compared to even 6mths ago, he's a lot more open to asking for guidance at least.] What's the use of friendship?

[He looks at the screen now, this time with a bit of a scowl before snorting and pocketing the scarab. At least he's trying to be polite.] I get it means something stupid like you won't ever be alone, but what is the use of it? It makes you weak and inclined to do reckless things like placing your life in danger. I don't see the stupid point of it, but...

Guess I just want to know why it's not stupid or pointless.

Friends are all like being the ones what done look out for you. You just gotta fuckin' put some faith in your bros and they'll help you be the best motherfucker what you can all be like!

[...Faith in friends? ... this is still something of an abstract concept.] Even in those that have left this stupid bubble?

Sure. That's what they're all for. If you can't be putting your motherfuckin' faith in your peeps, then what can you up and fuckin' put it in?

[... faith in friends that have left - nope nope nope. Can't do that can't do that because they left -

His reply is almost a snarl.] Yourself, stupid. Once someone's gone they won't ever come back.

Sometimes they do, you just gotta hold the faith alive, you get?

[Even if it has been over a year and a half.]

You got proof they will?

[...Aniki non-withstanding, but even he vanished again.] Otherwise you're just spouting hot air like a moron.

Haha, it ain't about motherfuckin' proof, bro. If you just all believe in shit hard enough, you don't need proof.

..... Yea, it is. Believing in something doesn't make it happen, moron.

Maybe. [A visible shrug.]

Does it all fuckin' matter if that shit is what gets a motherfucker's glad on? Ain't nothing what all be wrong with letting peeps do alls what does make them happy, even if it isn't being any sort of the stuff that gets the mirth flowing in your own fuckin' pump.

[There's a bit of a pause, as while Silver won't say it, Gamzee does have a point. And if nothing else it's food for though.

...damn bubble and making him actually think about things and not just keep reacting to the world around him.]... I suppose not.

That's the motherfuckin' spirit, bro! You just believe at stuff like that and things'll be all right. You'll see.

[It's everyone favorite tsundere pokemon trainer!]

Because they look out for you! Whenever you're feeling down, they'll do whatever it takes to make you feel better and happy!

[.... Ok that hit a nerve. Let's just dismiss it with a wave of his hand and snort.]

.... What if it doesn't work?

Being friends with someone?

Why don't you think it wouldn't work? As long as you're always there for someone and help them out, they usually try to do the same for you.

No, moron, the whole friends trying to cheer you up shit.

Then you just keep on trying.

[Pause]

Or you try to find someone else who does want to be your friend.

..Has that ever worked?

Sometimes but it really depends on who you're trying to befriend...

They might like you and they might not.

[Hello face he doesn’t really know nor care for. Really, he was just scrolling through for details on if certain morons blew it at their date or not. He needed new material to bother his fellow keyblade wielders.

It was friendship that caught his attention. Hey, this guy looks like that idiot from the cannibals’ group.]

There is no why about it not being stupid or pointless. It’s a weakness that should be beaten out. The best use of it is to use the other for entertainment or a meat shield.

How would it be used to entertain?

Playing games or sparring stays interesting against a real person. [It should be obvious.]

Tch. Child's play. [It still brings something of a smirk to Silver's face though.]

[This guy again, maybe if he tries a different approach.]

wELL,
mEANS PEOPLE HAVE YOU BACK FOR ONE,
aND THAT'S ALWAYS REALLY N1CE.

[Yes, this guy again.] Hmph.

Maybe. Eventually they'll leave this place then what?

yEAH, bUT FOR THE T1ME,
aND 1F THEy COME BACK YOU'LL HAVE THEM.

Yea, if they fucking remember the place.

Otherwise its as good as them abandoning you.

bETTER TO HAVE YOUR BASES COVERED, 1 TH1NK.

Tch. [It doesn't look like he'd gonna say anything else, but there is a thoughtful look in his eyes.]

...Does it help?

hAV1NG FR1ENDS?
aLWAYS.

Friendship doesn't make one weak. [Minako stands there a hand on her hip and a serious face going on.] In fact friendships can make one stronger.

How? The so called bonds you make only make you weak because then you start to rely on others.

That is what you believe, but that isn't a case for all friendships.

It's not pointless because those people do that for you too!

[Sola has some serious Opinions about friends. He doesn't even know this kid, but he definitely needs to get his head on straight.]

It doesn't make you weak to have feelings, it makes you stronger because you can be honest with yourself. Everyone has feelings even if they don't want them or try to ignore them, which you're pretty obviously doing. It's better to go with them instead of hiding! You'll be happier.

Tch. I've yet to see any proof that it makes you stronger [- lies. he has a few times, which is why he's asking all this. Not that he'll ever admit it.] It's better to be alone, rely only on yourself and make your own happiness without the aid of others.

You're wrong. Your life must be really sad if you actually think that.

[As irritated as he was before, he looks nothing if not sympathetic.]

Don't you have any friends to count on?

It is not! [Super effective nerve hit -- fjdhkjh SCOWLING FACE FOREVER.]

Hmph. Don't need them. I made a promise that I'd become the best on my own and I plan on fucking keeping it. Don't need anyone's help.

People who say they don't need friends are people who need them the most.

[There's a pause for a moment as Sola comes to some kind of decision.]

I'll be your friend, don't worry.

Hmph. What gave you the idea that I did that I need anyone? I'm fine on my own!

[Yea yea, keep telling yourself that Silver.

.... ldjlkjfldj - wait what is this gonna be like the whole Ethan thing back home again?] W-What?

I said I'd be your friend! If you need any help ever I'll help you or if you just want to have fun we can go have fun, okay?

[Don't make that face! It sounds nice and you know it.]

It's like having an ally. You look out for them in exchange of them doing the same.

Tch. Allies can betray you though. Then what?

You have to have trust in people, because some of them will always deserve it.

Hmph.

... Maybe. But they all leave in the end so it's worthless putting your faith in them.

[As far as Silver is concerned, most of this post is going round in circles much like his mind has been on the friendship topic for a while. Though there are kernels of food for thought to be found.]

..How does one know if they deserve to be called friends? What makes a friend different than the rest of the morons around?

I'm sure everyone here deserved to be called friend by someone.

But it's not about then leaving in the end, it's about while they're here.

In the worlds we come from people die, but that doesn't mean that we should distance ourselves from them because they might. They can still teach us things.

You would be surprise at what kind of strengths can be gained by having friends.

...And the headaches.

Like what? How does it make you stronger when it just makes you weaker?

It gives you someone worth fighting for if you need to. That, and many are stronger then one. Friends tend to make excellent back up in a fight.

The only thing worth fighting for are your own goals. Anything else is worthless.

[...so says the one that end up putting his life on the line some time ago for a 'mere tool' and would do it again in a heartbeat.]

Somehow, I doubt you truly believe that. If you did, you wouldn't be asking those questions in the first place.
