[05] || [Video/Audio] || [Regarding Naivete]

[ Regarding Jason's recent post and the, sad and pathetic, attempts he has seen to yet again beg Jason to cooperate with them, Ganondorf reacts. After all, he has not accepted to assist the foolish masses last months only to see them ruin everything they accomplished. ]

I see a number amongst you are still trying to beg Jason for his favors. Still trying to convince him to work alongside us. Clinging onto the hope that everyone can live together and work without any ill thoughts. This is all very beautiful in theory.

However as a matter of fact, you are only building more illusions on top of those that make this tower what it is. Jason does not desire to work with you. All he wants is to use all of you as test subjects for as long as he can. If anything, he will exploit your naivete to reach his ends and make the tower he dreams of a reality.

Of course, in certain situation people will work together. Yet, Jason appears to be under the impression we broke his precious tower-- Which indeed happened. He will never accept to work with any of you. If he does, he will only be deceiving you to reach the aforementioned purpose.

You have to accept the fact he is an enemy and will have to be defeated. Not everyone can be swayed away by your optimistic and delusional speech. This is a reality that you have to accept if you truly desire to survive.

What happens in this tower is not some sort of fairy tales for children. There are no higher beings guiding your every steps and ensuring you victory at the end of the road. This is not a story written by a benevolent author who will it to give everyone what they want in the end. There are no Gods who will save you.

And even if all of this were nothing more than a story, believe me when I say those writing it would have proven to be particularly cruel and sadistic people by your standards.

[ For once, he can't be bothered to teleport around and speak to them individually. Kiryu is on the list as well, even though he's spoken to him earlier. ]

Was the explosion the work of any amongst you?

If not, I doubt Pandora or anyone else in this tower could have accomplished it. Meaning we have a problem on our hands.

Though it would have been satisfying to twist another blade in Jason's side, this was not my doing.

Indeed, such powers would have to have crossed into reality, as our illusions cannot damage the Tower.

Indeed. Jason appears to think this is the doing of the residents. However, the only time when they could have gotten such devices was the infiltration and I doubt any of them found explosives.

If this neither us nor any of the other residents, and if Jason truly isn't behind this, we have a problem, as interesting as it is.

A problem in that there is an involved third party that until now we haven't even been aware of.

Indeed a possibility, and a strong one. If Jason is to be believed, we will find out the results of their doing soon but we have yet to discover those behind it.

Then it is best for us to keep our wits about us in the coming days. In results, reasoning always becomes clearer.

And reasoning will be much needed what ever happens.

Though I am most curious what was broken. I'd rather not have to suffer any more suprises.

I think you do already be knowing I did no be having anything to do with it. I would no even be knowing how to be blowing up the elevator. [Okay so she has been hanging round Kiryu, but not enough to actually understand how to make bombs when he hasn't even gotten that far yet]

I do no be thinking Pandora do be being involved either, mostly because there did be residents in the elevator, it did no be harming the administrators past irritation, that do no be being their style.

I agree.

[ They were on the same line here. Other residents maybe? But aside from themselves, few would do that... ]

This means it can only be the work of other residents, Jason himself or an unknown force.

I do no be liking the idea of an unknown force.

It could be being Jason, but it do no be like he do be actually needing an excuse to be punishing us...

Not to punish us. To divide us, or rather to divide Pandora by making them look like terrorists in the eyes of the other residents. It is a tactic that may work, it won't affect us but the results should be amusing to witness.

I do not like the idea of an unknown force either, however we have to consider it.

I can be seeing why that would be useful, maybe us 'working together' did be worrying them.

[She frowned] What other force could there even be?

It is indeed a possibility.

We cannot know yet but if that is the case, we will need to learn about it soon. After all, this tower was inhabited by people other than the administrators long ago, who knows what may have awakened as a result of the core breaking.

[She hadn't thought about that] We will need to be learning this.

And also what did be breaking this time, Jason did be sounding like it did be being serious.

So either he did be lying, or things will be getting interesting.

You have to be ready for every possibilities.

But I suspect things will get interesting soon enough.

I always do be.

Why work with the jailor beyond what is necessary to survive? Anyone who wishes to assist that foul xeno-breed after the revelation of his true form is nothing but a traitor anyway.

[ Someone's got a hate-on today. ]

Edited 2013-08-09 14:23 (UTC)

I could not agree more, but this is something many in the tower do not appear to understand.

[ Though, Ganon can't really say much of anything about Jason's true form given his own demonic form isn't much better. ]

There is a line between nobility and foolish naivete, and unfortunately many of our fellow inmates cross this line twice over. I am a man of honor, but I know my foes when i see them. [ And then he destroys them utterly. ]

If what you say is true, then maybe you live to see and write the final act of this story.

As long as the others do not compromise it all with their futile attempts.

I suspect many would not like the final act as I would write it. [ Mostly because of the sheer depth of the violence he would unleash upon the administrators, should he gain access to his real form and all his weapons. He would be the Emperor's fury unbound. ]

I think most can be convinced of the need for decisive action, in extremis, and those that cannot are easily ignored.

Then it is their duty to write it their own way. If they cannot, then they have no saying on how it shall be written.

I doubt most can be convinced. I have tried, for a long time.

I have encountered enough people here who can be convinced to think otherwise. They are mostly knights or other kinds of soldiers, however.

I have encountered such people as well, but they are very limited in numbers.

Honestly, I think you overestimate the truly suicidal idealists a bit. Most people have a somewhat realistic view of the world, though at least some are so cowed and afraid of our captors as to cooperate.

Some probably just apply the same logic they use while justifying working with you.

[Light knows what kind of logic that is, because Riku thinks both notions have DO NOT EVER EVEN GO THERE written all over them in red, bold impact font.

Though if someone who'd exploit certain people's naivety without a second thought has to call them out on that very thing, something really is just utterly going wrong.]

You are omitting a very basic fact.

I am a resident like yourself and share your purpose to revive my world and leave this tower. Not to mention for a year only I acted in that sense. All Jason share with you is the time spent on his surgery table.

While the similarities are there, they're two radically different situations.

[ That was your daily dose of hypocrisy with a bit of exaggeration and salted with half-truths.

But in all seriousness, Ganon is just getting more and more surprised at the depths of foolishness people can reach some times. ]

So what, you'd never work with others only in to deceive them in the end?

[Try again, Ganon. Riku does have first hand knowledge what the evil alliance's plans for the kids would have been after all.]

For radically different situations the result is similar enough.

If I pursue the same ends than those I work with, I have no need to deceive them.

[ He only wanted to show them the right path, rude. ]

You were amongst those who took part in my infiltration. You can testify that I did not deceive you at any point.

Edited 2013-08-09 18:44 (UTC)

Until the moment that changes that is?

['Right' path. Of course. >.>;]

Should I send you a gold star for one time of honesty then?

[Because even if working together - if it could even be called that - worked out once, he still won't ever trust Ganondorf further than he can throw him. Or you know. At all.]

What's wrong with thinking this place is fun? The experiments, the monsters, the lack of annoying woodpeckers... I love it. ✩

There is nothing inherently wrong with that, I suppose.

There is something wrong at continuing to believe Jason will be fo any assistance.

He's keeping me entertained. That's assistance enough!

Humans cling to hope, even when there is none to be found. In times of bleak despair, they will invent their own reasons to be optimistic. You of all people should know this.

It does not mean I will stand idle and watch the fools crush what could be achieved. Among the mindless masses, a few may react at least.

It would have been a long time coming. Perhaps now the will have finally learned the lessons they have failed to learn thus far.

'Jason' is dullard running Tower, yes? Then, is waste of time. Talking with it never works.

Is lie even if says it likes you.

Given the description you've given of him, you got the right person.

Why assume Dullard would help anyway? Is his Tower.

It was not my work.

Jason does not strike me as the sort to attack the tower and then blame the residents. There's something else at work here.

I wouldn't be so quick to rule Jason out. His world is collapsing, that has a tendency to change people.

But I agree we need to consider another force. Which is particularly worrying to say the least.

Perhaps so.

A force that has access to real explosives. I cannot imagine anyone on our side or on Pandora's have such materials.

Heh. It'd be nice if that was how it worked. He's not the kind of person that'd be swayed by flowery words, especially not coming from people who he thinks are gonna drop dead in a few months.

If you want a guy like that to work with you, you've gotta be able to convince him through other means. I dunno what's so hard to understand about that. Probably, the only reason he's on Ruana's side is because she acted. She even went as far as to killed his senior.

All we to him is a study in "learned helplessness."

[There's a delay, and then she adds--]

Anyway, if he's gonna openly rebel against her, I don't want him on our side. Only a complete idiot would do that.

As much as I was tempted to cut the cables before anyone went down the elevator shaft?

It wasn't me.

And my idiot roommate would have said something if it was Pandora.

The people who think they can reason with that monster are fools. You're not likely to sway any of them, so you're just wasting your breath here.

We really need another "Jason's an asshole" sermon? And here I thought that was the phrase of the day.

Anyway, before anyone starts pointing fingers at the obvious suspect, I didn't do it. Wish I had, though, I'll give you that.

What a kind soul you are to explain things so bluntly. People can be rather thick-headed, can't they?

It was not my work. It was absolutely not my work. Were it my work, I would not have been killed in the resulting explosion.

Or perhaps the fall.

Either way, it was unpleasant and I would not voluntarily subject myself to that.
