you guess?

so if i came over to kill you right now you'd be cool with it? interesting

[godcards]

You wouldn't make it into the dorm.

[duranduel]

i wasn't saying it as as genuine threat

just as example

but i don't think you should just lay down and accept fate or whatever

[godcards]

I'm not.

I just know it might happen.

[duranduel]

so

you're always waiting for potential death

[godcards]

I have one specific purpose. If I do not fulfill that purpose I will die. It's an agreement that was arranged before I came here.

While I do not intend to fail, my options are very limited. This place is unpredictable with the way it controls people. I'm not here to play along with this charade, I'm here to graduate and go back to what I need to do. Either someone could kill me of their on volition or this place orders them to.

Death is inevitable, but I would rather it be on my own terms.

[duranduel]

so its either fulfill your agreement and leave

or die. either through this place, or not fulfilling your agreement, or just because someone else decides to get rid of you

i admit. the odds aren't stacked that well against you

gives you more reason to fight for your life though

[godcards]

It's not much of a life. But it's all I have.

[duranduel]

then why not let others help you

isn't there strength in numbers?

[godcards]

[ there is a long pause before this message is answered. ]

I do things my own way, and that is not usually agreeable with others.

[duranduel]

you're that kind of person

but i think in terms of getting your goals in a logistical sense

you need people to support your plans. but not those who will push you from how you want to do it

i think that's possible

[godcards]

[ ANOTHER PAUSE god he doesn't want to go here, but: ]

Mandricardo.

I'm going to tell you something very important.

The Item that I had today at trial gives me immense power. I do not need outside help or influence because of it. At least, before coming here... I cannot regain these abilities at this place, so I have been stuck waiting things out until I am able to graduate.

I have everything planned. This is something I have spent years of my life pursuing, and I am very, very close to my goal. I have never needed anybody to help me of their own free will.

I just need to graduate and be able to go back to where I came from.

[duranduel]

[Independent entrepreneur Malik...]

i see

but i also see you are in a position where you are stuck

graduation isn't a guarantee at this point. we're all just clogged up in the same quicksand that is the world of this school

if you let someone help you out for the moment, you'll save yourself a world of trouble. right now we're just watching all of us sink deeper

[godcards]

[ imagine being 16 years old and having your own crime syndicate ]

And how do you expect to help?

[duranduel]

[He may be ?????? about emotions right now, but deep down he still just wants to help.]

just lend a hand

i already have your memories on my body

and i think it makes sense for someone to take the burden off your shoulders for a while for a breather when you need it

[godcards]

I just don't know how you'd do something like that.

[ malik is ????? about emotions ALWAYS ]

[duranduel]

well tell me

what things do you need to make happen to make your goal happen

[godcards]

We need to finish the story.

[duranduel]

well we are working on that

but i'm speaking more specifically for your goal

[godcards]

You're not going to like the answer.

It's going to complicate things.

[duranduel]

complicate what things, malik

1/2

[godcards]

If anyone finds out. I know not many people like me. But if one of us dies and they read through my messages I would rather

Nevermind

[godcards]

I want to kill the Pharaoh that has ruined my life.

[duranduel]

[Ah. That's one of the things on his arms, isn't it? "The Pharaoh".]

[Now, he knows that's not a memory not of a beloved one, but quite the opposite.]

i see

[duranduel]

considering i died in my life while attempting to get bloody revenge for the man who murdered my father

i certainly can't talk
