EIGHTH RIDE ✦ ANONYMOUS TEXT

[diamondo]

What's the worst thing you've ever done? How did you recover from it?

I did something awful back home and the guilt's been eating me up ever since. I have some days where everything's fine and I don't even think about it. Other days it's all I can think about and I can barely do anything. I'm not saying I want to get rid of the guilt entirely because that's not possible, but how do you cope with it? I think it's about time I try to deal with it in other, healthier ways.

...Actually, while I'm on the subject, what's the worst thing someone's ever done to you? Did you forgive them? If so, how? I'm not the sort of person that can forgive easily, but holding onto a grudge forever is pretty awful.

[diamondo]

Well, I can get that. There's not really much of a point in seeking revenge here anyway.

[ossifragant]

Not really. No one can even die here.

That's more of a plus than a minus, though, in my opinion.

[diamondo]

Oh no, I definitely agree. It's good that we can't die. I'd really rather avoid death, actually.

[ossifragant]

So would I.

That sort of thing is a bit too close to home.

[diamondo]

What happened? If you're okay talking about it.

[ossifragant]

I was going to die.

Not much else to say, really.

[diamondo]

That sucks. I guess you didn't manage to avoid it?

[ossifragant]

I knew it was going to happen. I knew full well what was going to happen and even now I can't say I regret it.

It hasn't happened yet but if I ever go back it will.

[Greed, could you be any more obvious?]

[diamondo]

Oh. Yeah, something similar happens to me. It'll happen if I ever go back home.

[ossifragant]

It's a shitty deck you've been handed.

But that still doesn't mean you can't try and make amends here.

[diamondo]

Yeah, we can try. It probably won't work for me since the situation I was in was pretty awful.

[ossifragant]

Was it a situation where you were forced to do things you normally wouldn't, by chance?
