[ friends; written ]

[ the writing is a little messy because she scribbled it down while falling asleep. ]

It's Uru and I'm alright. I'm sorry for worrying you all.

[ ADDED IN AFTER: ]

A man named Two-Face was holding me [ there's a long pause here. ] hostage. But it's resolved for now.


[ ooc: so sorry for this being late everyone! backdated to saturday evening and replies will be delayed ICly. also she's in the clinic so it's technically open to anyone who would be there. ]

Maybe not enough.

[payback.livejournal.com]

Uru... [A pause. She understands this feeling.]

You have to take care of yourself too.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

I know. [ she sounds firm but understanding. ]

I just... no one grows up with the thought they want to do bad things.

[payback.livejournal.com]

It's not something that you should have to take on alone, though.

If a person doesn't want to be helped... or doesn't think they want to be helped... than I dunno if they really can be, without infringing on them in a way that'd make you hypocritical. [general you, she does mean.]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ that gets her to think about a lot of things. after all, the only thing she wanted to do was making people happy. to help them find happiness in some shape or form. ]

But why should we not help them when they need it?

[payback.livejournal.com]

I think to really be helped, people also have to be willing to help themselves... maybe he is. I dunno. Maybe it depends on the hold his other half has over him...

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

But there's no way to help him here. [ that's a psychological issues, right? unless there were psychiatrists in the castle... ]

[payback.livejournal.com]

Why do you say that?

1/2

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

How do we help someone with multiple personalities? Do we have psychiatrists in Paradisa?

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ a long pause.

then a frustrated noise. ]

What am I...

No... there's still a way, isn't there? There's always a way...

[payback.livejournal.com]

What about telepaths?

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

People who read minds? Do we have any here? [ or is nita forgetting if uru knows one... @_@ ]

[payback.livejournal.com]

Yeah we do. Maybe one of them could help him somehow.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

How would that work?

[payback.livejournal.com]

I don't know, I'm not a telepath - but some of them should surely be able to work with a mind split like that... it's worth a try, at least.

[Joshua comes to mind immediately, but Rin doubts he'd be a help.]

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

It sounds pretty dangerous, too.

[payback.livejournal.com]

We don't really know, do we?

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

Yeah... but first, Two-Face would have to get caught.

[payback.livejournal.com]

I hope he does, then.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ a small sigh. ]

So do I.

[payback.livejournal.com]

Uru - don't feel bad about what you do, or what you've done, okay? The fact that you care about helping him now says a lot.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ a pause. rin's words remind her of a conversation she had a while back. ]

You think so? [ she laughs. ] It's all I want to do... to make people happy or help them somehow. Even if I can't do what others can do here, there's still something I'm able to do.

That's how we should always see it, isn't that right?

[payback.livejournal.com]

Sure - but it's not your duty alone to take on, either. You'll get tired eventually, after all.

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

[ another pause.

then her tone is quiet and gentle: ]

Thank you, Rin.

[payback.livejournal.com]

[Her breath catches a little. She's hoping that Uru didn't feel patronized, here.]

That's all, really. It's noble to want to help.. but everybody gets tired.
