Nothing I do better than revenge

DO REVENGE

  • Comment with what/who your character wants to get revenge on. If they're not the type to act out a blood feud in return, they can still list off who's done them wrong.
  • Others talk you down...or swear to join the cause.
  • Thread.

[A small boy, no more than twelve at most, seemed to stand there in the empty streets, dirty, with clothes far too big for him. He stared out into the distance, not focusing on any one thing. If anything, his eyes only seemed deadly into the middle distance.]

I don't know his name. Stork never told me. But he took away the sky. And he hurt Stork.

[He shook his head warily.]

All I remember was how dark he looked. And then... Just... Dark...

[Because that's the thing to focus on.]

[At first Reki was going to quickly go the other way and pretend he hasn't seen him. Or heard. Hell, he still wants to do that! Adam is a certified loon and also dangerous with a big fat "D" at the beginning, who'd ever want to catch the attention of that?!

Except then he goes and brings up that whole Eve nonsense again.]



Wh- Try to at least remember my name, will you?! How do you even function out in the real world!

Also, quit it with that Eve-nonsense, his name is LANGA, and he has already made it plenty of clear that he won't join you in that delusion of yours! Just race him if you want him to notice you so bad!

Or even better, DON'T!!

If it serves as an effective deterrent, I'd say yes. However... it doesn't always, and often revenge is expensive to the outraged party in time and resources.

Do you think revenge is likely to stop this behavior?

Revenge is often too corrosive to be of much use.

I do occasionally pursue the redress of grievances, and I have enforced the law, on occasion, with pleasure. But I have the luxury of a position of interpretive power that means I can do so... an avenue not open to everyone.

[Tapping his chin with a light hum.]

Can't really think of anyone I'd want serious revenge on. Hell, it'd honestly be easier to name people who want revenge on me. I guess if I had to say, it'd be my stupid idiot Pop for dragging me and others in a bunch of messes. Nabiki might be up there, but eh. [Shrugging.] She's more of a headache than someone worth getting revenge on, even if she's a heartless bitch.

The tricky thing is, that pragmatically I'd want the people who hurt me to be unable to hurt anyone else. And I want people who are like me to not have to grow up with that shit.

But some of them, emotionally speaking, I'd want them to feel how I felt when they hurt me, and understand what it was to be the child I was, and I don't think that's possible.
