    "Better decide soon then," Seyka said cheerfully, "We're almost out of time in that regard."

    “If you say so,” Seyka replied. “If there’s no good times, you could just outsource it to someone else. You know how we were talking about doing things without reward? You could just tell someone else to take a vacation. Like, live vicariously through them!”

    Seyka was thoughtful. “But if you forget that you wanted to take one, then you’re out of luck.” “Well isn’t that a problem,” Seyka said. “Maybe you could just take a break from whatever that creature is and let the rest of the team handle it?”

    Seyka shrugged. “Nothing really. I’ll go back to the same thing I’ve been doing for years. Although- I have wanted to take a vacation by myself. Maybe I’ll do that. My world doesn’t have anything going on in it like here.”

    “Mmm. The past is the past,” Seyka said quietly. “Do you think that the ones left behind... should be considerate of circumstances they were unaware of?” “More to the point- who is responsible for resolving something like that?”

    Seyka tilted his head. “Sounds like an imprecise metric. If only you could choose what you wanted to remember, but then there’s no meaning in forgetting, huh.” “You still have options I suppose. If you don’t like what you remember, just hit yourself until you forget again until you remember...

    “Well, that’s not too bad,” Seyka replied. “If you forget, but you’re in the same place, you can bury your money in the same place. Then, when you forget again, you can feel like you found a secret treasure.” “I’m positive too that you would keep going to the same place because it’s not like...

    Seyka nodded. “Maybe you should start charging a fee. I know it’s unethical in your rule book and all that, but when you put it like that, it only seems like a fair compromise.” The Skarmory made a face. “Does you group have a healthy community outreach program? You know, you can teach self...

    "I was more thinking along the lines of a nonnegotiable situation where you and someone else random must die for others. You know, sharing in the burden!" Seyka sighed. "I guess you're right though. You did find another way to say that it's context dependent anyway, haha." "Your reality...

    "If that's what you choose to do, then it's fine!" Seyka tilted his head. "Do you draw a line though? Like, let's say you die for someone. Would you rather die for two strangers or one friend?" The Skarmory stuck his tongue out. "And I know the answer to these questions is always that it...

    "I'll admit, being admired by strangers is a concept lost on me," Seyka said blankly, "Likewise, being remembered by a stranger is like being perceived by the rain." "Actions without meaning still have a result- that much is true. The benefit of helping someone without reward is in itself the...

    "Theoretically? I'm wondering about us being sent off to kill that- well- whatever that thing is. It was already pushing it on the moon, but it's a different dimension now? How can we guarantee it's not a dimension filled with hungry ghosts?" Seyka smiled. "Realistically though? I haven't been...

    "I'm risk analyzing," Seyka replied, not looking at the two. "So I guess that makes me fairly alright. If I wasn't thinking about risks, then I might be scared of the unknown and feeling bad. But I also might be happier not thinking about it because if I judge a risk to be dangerous, then I...

    Threadmarks: R17? Paraprosdokian [Owen & Seyka]

    Sprawled out on a bench, Seyka stared at the sky. The Skarmory frowned. "A blade that has been raised to strike must be allowed to finish its stroke? I read something like that," he said to himself. "That... thing, isn't even here anymore. Even if it comes back, didn't we finish what we came...

    Seyka nodded. "It's good to see them, because even if you don't, they're still there." The Skarmory paused. "You don't have to worry about me though. The thought is nice, but save it for someone who needs it." He smiled at Icetales. "Live a long time if you want. No one's judging."...

    Seyka paused. “I don’t know, I haven’t really met any other Skarmory. I’m just kind of old I guess. And I suppose I’ll get older for awhile. Maybe if I’m lucky I’ll just stop.” “If you live a long time for no particular reason, then you might as well use it.” Seyka shrugged. “The circumstances...

    Seyka blinked. "It's inevitable that you will or won't act. I don't know about you, but the balance of the future isn't something I'd feel obliged to." "Anyway, if the world ended, but no one died, then I don't see the problem," the Skarmory said. "Nor do I see why millions perspectives I'll...

    "We made our choices," Seyka replied simply. "It doesn't matter to me what could have been, I'm fine with it either way. All that really matters is that something happened." "It is fun to imagine though," the Skarmory admitted. "Could anyone really hold it against us if we failed? Our...

    "Boring? Mm, if you think about it that way." Seyka's face was blank. "Tides are something that those pokemon live with, not for. Sure you might lose things like estuaries, but they'd adapt. The darkness, the stagnation- if you had to live with it, you would." The Skarmory shrugged. "Reality...

    Seyka followed the Ninetails' gaze. "I suppose it's something like that. Can't say I feel any particular way about it." The Skarmory tilted his head. "I'm sure someone would argue that some good came out of this though. I wonder what it would be..." "As it is, it's only kind of destroyed,"...
