Well, I always assumed we weren't all getting in. I didn't think there'd be a limit, just that... if the bar were that high, clearly we wouldn't all end up making the cut.

I wouldn't have thought anyone would resort to murder, but it would be a competition either way.

[ontrend]

Well, yeah, but like... it's a party invite. That's, like, the most low-stakes thing ever Sure, if you don't get invited this time, you might have to wait a little longer to try again, but... not getting invited once doesn't mean you won't get invited ever.

Total bullshit that someone would react like this.

[voidshift]

Low-stakes situation with a very high-stakes outcome. I think that ends up making it seem more serious.

[he needs more beer, this is doing nothing for him.]

[ontrend]

Guess so! But I still don't think I'll ever accept that any kind of stakes would be worth killing a freaking sixteen year old.

[voidshift]

You have that much going for you, at least, even in hell. Apparently only so many of us can say the same thing.

[ontrend]

I'm choosing to believe Soldier Boy was an outlier, and most of us would say the same. Like, we're in hell, but that doesn't automatically make us chill with child murder.

[voidshift]

I'm not sure why some of us are even here, honestly. Hunter included.

[ontrend]

Yeah, me either! Like, sure, we're probably not saints, but don't get the feeling that most of us are that bad.

[voidshift]

It really doesn't seem like all of us would deserve eternal punishment... that might depend on their standards, but how high would they have to be?

[ontrend]

Fuck if I know, man. Religion is weird.

[voidshift]

It's definitely... different from the ones I know.

[ontrend]

Yeah? I guess Jesus wasn't really a thing where you're from. There aren't any elves in the Bible.

[voidshift]

In-- what? Who is Jesus.

[ontrend]

Uh, son of god or whatever, I don't really know, I'm not Christian. But there's enough Christians in Tokyo that I've heard of him.

[voidshift]

Of what god? Don't tell me there's only one.

[ontrend]

According to Christians, it's just the one.

[voidshift]

Dedicated of them. Even the people who only worship one god in my home at least know there are more.

[ontrend]

Where I come from, people believe in gods but I don't think anyone's ever, like, seen one. So who knows if they're actually a thing.

[voidshift]

I can see how it might be easier for some to just believe in one, if they're not going to be proven right or wrong, but that's still-- a lot of faith to put into something.

[they're out here blindly believing in gods, huh...]

[ontrend]

Yeah, a lot of religion's about just believing, even when you don't have any proof, I think.
