This place is full of rotten adults, just like my world was. People who take advantage of other people who can't fight back, using them as a commodity. Yeah, it's familiar.
Children get caught up in the conflicts of adults more often than they admit. My planet was occupied by the time I was six. The people who cannot fight back are often some of the first targets.
Here is very familiar to me too, yes, lots of rotten people, filling out all the powerful corners.
I agree. We have been more decisive than Morningstar. It has not always helped and I think as an organization it has a long way to go, but I think there have been a lot of changes since we started arriving in this world. In a good way.

[ being unknown helped the him on his own rebellious conquest, and Ren's certain that it's helping them here, too. the whispers and turned heads regarding them is recent and and a patchwork of muddled truths, much like riding the train around Tokyo and listening to the rumors regarding The Phantom Thieves of Hearts. ]
Sometimes I wonder if we're being pushed that way.
I have always kept that idea in mind. That someone is waiting to see what we do. Whether they are simply watching us in observation or pushing us into situations and hoping we make good choices.
[ or bad choices. as to why they're actually here, cassian has always found it easier to keep the reason why open, preferring not to get hung up on one single theory of why. ]
[ Akechi had made it clear that when Ren said "using us" that it was past tense. "used us," he reminded him, because there was always an opportunity to turn the tables. ]
[ with the Phantom Thieves, all of their plans spawned from "social reform." this wasn't his world, but that didn't mean he couldn't leave it better than it was. ]
This planet is my home for the foreseeable and likely indefinite future, unless we suddenly access more functional space travel. If I do not help, I am only hurting myself too.

I admit I am curious. You do not seem like a stranger to what is happening on this planet.

Or just choices.

We could be an experiment. There are a lot of 'we could bes' out there to theorize about.
no subject
If we were used, it might be time to find out how to turn the tables.

What are you planning to do?
no subject
I'm planning on doing something not hinging on our own theories.
no subject
Yes, but is that a broad goal or do you have something more specific in mind?

No, I just can't leave this world how it is.
