Game 042 [Written/Action] - Play Like There's No Tomorrow

[neverplaysfair]

[ The following goes up on the journals later on in the morning. ]

A rather large collection of sheet music appeared in the shops some time rather recently. If you were looking for any that you'd hoped would follow you to Luceti, I might have picked it up.

[ Soon after that, the sound of a violin can be heard coming from in front of House 38. If you're quiet, it can even be heard all the way from the town center. What's he playing, you ask? Well, anything.

Maybe your favorite song. Maybe something hauntingly familiar. Maybe a rousing song. Maybe it's even battle music!

Seriously, he'll be playing anything if there's someone with that canon here. Who needs a fourth wall.

Joshua is sitting out in front of House 38 on one of the chairs from inside, sheet music on his lap has he sight reads it. Care to stop by and listen? ]

I want you to get over your own damn ego and realize that your way isn't the only way.

[neverplaysfair]

I never said it's the only way. But it's certainly the best way.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

That's your ego talking.

[neverplaysfair]

More than just mine. I'm not the one who designed the system.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Change it.

[neverplaysfair]

Why would I?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Because maybe I'm not the one who needs to learn a new way to think.

[neverplaysfair]

What do you think would be better, hmm? Let's hear your uninformed suggestion. Hee hee.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

What do you mean, "uninformend opinion"?

[neverplaysfair]

You don't know the way my world works.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You've already told me everything I need to know.

[neverplaysfair]

I haven't. But go on. Guess what you think might be able to improve it.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Murdering for fun needs to stop.

[neverplaysfair]

That doesn't happen anyway. Next?

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You obliterate people's souls and call it a game. How is that not murder?

[neverplaysfair]

They're already dead, of course.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

Death doesn't damage a soul. You know that as well as I do.

[neverplaysfair]

Any change a person's code undergoes threatens to disperse their Soul. If it weren't for the Game, only a slight few would ever experience the afterlife. With very little exception, human Souls can't remain intact when their code tries to change to that we now call a Player.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

[....What.] That makes no sense.

[neverplaysfair]

I told you, you don't know the way my world works.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You make it sound like a math problem. [Stupid math. There's no spirit in math.]

[neverplaysfair]

It is a math problem, but we haven't even gotten to that yet. Hee hee.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

I'm tired of your riddles.

[neverplaysfair]

I'm doing my best to be perfectly clear here.

[aphephobic.livejournal.com]

You're doing it badly.
