What does "friendship" mean to you?

Comments

[obstinates]

Never giving up on someone, never leavin' 'em behind, and shouldering their burdens for them when they can't by themselves.

voice;

[onabluemoon]

And if they should give up on you in kind?

voice;

[obstinates]

Remind them 'bout what you guys are.

And if they still don't listen... well, the only thing ya can do is be their friend, even if they won't be yours.

[onabluemoon]

They won't listen.

[in which case, Naruto empathizes completely; he's quiet for a moment before answering:]

Gotta keep bein' their friend then. If you just give up, you might lose that chance to help them remember what friends are to each other, y'know?

It's no longer worth the effort.

[obstinates]

Havin' friends is always worth the effort. Nobody wants to be alone.

[lol Nobody]

Want has nothing to do with it.

voice;

[obstinates]

Eh? Whaddaya mean?

voice;

[onabluemoon]

'Nobody' wants. We are nothing if not that.

voice;

[obstinates]

Oi, I don't think I get it. You don't wanna be their friend?

voice;

[onabluemoon]

That's not what I meant.

voice;

[obstinates]

So... you do wanna be their friend? I guess that's why you asked 'bout friendship in the first place.

Oi, it's worth it to not give up. Especially in a place like this, y'know? Where everything's... gone.

Re: voice;

[onabluemoon]

Everything was gone long before this.

voice;

[obstinates]

Did you lose your friend before all this?

voice;

[onabluemoon]

Yes and no.
