[ For Silco, it's a rare thing. It should be conscious. He can make that deal, weather it and calculate it, and then make the conscious decision to accept it. He did so with Set, with John Silver. Even with Mel. He'd done so because it was a necessity. Because it was meaningful.
With Hugo, it had been incidental. Accidental.
That didn't settle well with him. Did he mind that it was Hugo? Not particularly. They were similar enough, and had similar goals.
It was that he hadn't been given the choice. ]
I do not doubt that they will. Perhaps they think that we need to be closer, first. Perhaps they do not see it as necessary yet. They will, and I think we will pay as a whole, because people cannot restrain themselves like they should.
[ He doesn’t like to think about it. It’s painful to think about, partially because of the imprint truly insisting that he carry every connection like it’s part of his own soul, but also because he doesn’t like when he has to face those kinds of decisions. He’s softer than Silco, and they both know it.
However, it doesn’t mean he wouldn’t make the decision. You simply can’t be a criminal without that resolve. You have to be able to condemn your conspirators, coworkers, friends. He has before. He will again. It just always weighs more heavily on him than he’d like. ]
It’s a day I’m not looking forward to. To put it lightly. I think the best I can hope for is that a contingent of rational people remains whenever it comes.
[ You can almost hear the sigh in that text… ]
Well! On that happy note, I do think that’s just about everything I wanted to talk about. And more, as usual. So, I’ll leave you to your evening~
