[Ken, wearing a blue apron, is standing in what appears to be the stockroom of Nectar.]

So...

[He hesitates for a moment, gazing around himself apprehensively, clearly worried he might be overheard. When he turns back to the screen, he closes his eyes briefly and takes a deep breath, as if steeling himself for something.]

What would it take to make you decide you couldn't be yourself any more?

I can see how maybe you'd have to for a time, but it'd be... if it was dangerous otherwise. Can't you just stop when the danger's over?

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

How can you know the danger has truly ended?

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

[When everybody who caused it is dead.

[... of course, not everyone has such a permanent method of getting rid of their troublemakers as that. Ken hesitates.]

I guess it depends what the danger is.

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

When one danger ends, another arises usually.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

They can't all want you to go around ignoring who you are, though.

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

Perhaps not.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

Sometimes it's gotta be less dangerous to face stuff as yourself, right? Because it's gonna be dangerous to forget who you are, too.

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

Such is possible.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

I think it must be. You forget who you were, aren't you gonna forget why you thought you had to change in the first place?

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

Not all do if the reason is strong enough.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

I guess...

[Man, this is all way more complicated than he'd thought it'd be.]

Do you think that'd make it easier for a guy, then? Or worse?

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

That would depend on the person.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

Yeah... man, this is tricky. I kinda thought there'd be a more obvious answer than this.

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

There usually isn't in cases like this.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

[Well, that makes Ken feel a little better for not finding it himself.]

Oh well... guess I'll just have to see what happens. Try to help, that kinda thing. Thanks, though.

[seiryuu-warrior.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.
