YOU'RE WELCOME. ]

Greetings! My name is Kyuubey. I've been here for some time now, but I need advice from you all... Well, primarily from the humans amongst you. Namely, what should my purpose be in this universe, when my job was to save mine? If I am the result of a failed line of causality, and this a place that collects the detritus from inadequate realities, what is the purpose of our continued existence? We cannot cease to exist from our own desire, which would imply that we are meant to be, but can anyone claim to have contributed something to this reality? Does anyone believe they have a future, or any potential whatsoever, as long as they exist in this tower?

I'm asking only because as unbalanced, emotional species, you are much more likely to produce a rationale for your existence! The logical answer - that we have no future and no present - doesn't really work, does it? We're gonna keep going anyway... I thought I'd find out what you thought, and see if there was something I can do.

Well, it doesn't matter much. Since I have as little meaning here as you guys, let's all be friends!

The conclusion you are all reaching seems to be a mutual delusion of use. That is, as long as you are useful to another being, you have a reason to exist... which is false, isn't it? If none of us have a reason to exist, then there is nothing to be gained by assisting anyone else.

and your argument is full of holes too
there's a reason for us to exist and another reason that we got sent here
even if that reason is just because the administrators are assholes
just because you don't know that reason
doesn't mean there's no reason
perhaps the reason for our existence
is that we just want to exist

You're sure lucky that an inadequate reason like that is enough for you. It's correct that I should really be asking the administrators about this, though...

[puppy_lancer]

then what sort of reason do you want
for your own existence?

what
you have ways of contacting the administrators?

[The few times he had spoken to them, it was when the administrators contacted the people of the Tower.]

That's what I was asking you, but I suppose I was asking too much. [ hm? ] No more than anyone else. If I addressed them directly with something that interests them, I have a small probability of receiving a response.

[puppy_lancer]

it doesn't sound very logical to ask another
for the reason for one's own existence

then use the request box

I don't need a reason so much as a justification. I am going to exist here regardless of my own thoughts, after all. But, thank you for your suggestion!
