[ Spoken quietly, as if never meant to be said at all. ]

A lucky man is someone who doesn't know what's waiting for him after the end.

Why do you think that?

R PRIVATE || UNHACKABLE

[fatespoken]

[ The longest pause ever. ]

A story's no fun if you already know the ending.

PRIVATE || UNHACKABLE

[oshutup.livejournal.com]

But that doesn't sound like an ending.

More like another beginning.

[fatespoken]

You believe in God, don't you, Peter?

PRIVATE || UNHACKABLE

[oshutup.livejournal.com]

Yes.

What about yourself?

PRIVATE || UNHACKABLE

[fatespoken]

No.

But I believe I would if I had the choice.

PRIVATE || UNHACKABLE

[oshutup.livejournal.com]

Mind telling me why you don't have the choice?

[fatespoken]

I'm not being beaten and brainwashed, if that's what you're wondering

[ A beat. ]

In my world, I know the truth. And the truth is that while a causality does exist, She's hardly what you'd call a God. But it's an indubitable truth, an axiom too obvious to be shaken, and because of that, I don't have a choice.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

I'd have to say that's very true...

[fatespoken]

Guess I'm not the only one.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Well, hearsay isn't quite enough to prove the veracity of what I learned. Still, I must keep it in mind as a potential... setback.

[fatespoken]

Worried you'll burn somewhere dark and sulfurous?

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Oh no. Nothing like that...

Are those concerns that you have?

[fatespoken]

No.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Oh, well then! General philosophy it is.

[fatespoken]

Not sure what you mean by that.

So are you a lucky man?

[fatespoken]

If I was, or if I wasn't, why would it matter to you?

|| audio

[sempreadagio.livejournal.com]

Curiosity.

|| audio

[fatespoken]

You first.

|| audio

[sempreadagio.livejournal.com]

Well I'm not a man, for starters. And history says luck isn't my thing either. And I can honestly say I don't know what the endgame is.

|| audio

[fatespoken]

Luck is mere chance and coincidence. You can't foretell that, history can't dictate it.

|| audio

[sempreadagio.livejournal.com]

Well I'm pretty sure my life breaks that rule. So, your turn. How about you?

[never_very_good]

Same thing's waiting for all of us.

[fatespoken]

Yeah? And what's that?

[never_very_good]

Death.

[fatespoken]

Don't believe in life after death Frankie?

audio

[never_very_good]

Course I do. Lived it a while, even.

audio

[fatespoken]

City doesn't count. It's just a holding pen.

audio

[never_very_good]

Not what I meant.

[srsbusinessk.livejournal.com]

Amen.

|| audio

[fatespoken]

I'm almost surprised at all the agreement.

[srsbusinessk.livejournal.com]

Really? I mean, place like this, I've kinda grown to expect it.

[fatespoken]

That people are willing to speak openly to complete strangers, even without a curse? You don't get this kind of honesty in real life.
