I found something interesting in one of the books tucked in the back of the library. For once, I think this is something that would be pretty interesting for all of us to do. So I don't mind Haruhi is making me announce it on the network this time.

It basically goes like this: I'll read a short story from this book, and you as the audience decides

Comments

That is an interesting question, sir. Ah... I would say, the Prince, the Bull, the King, the Princess. But I suppose all of them are guilty to some degree; the princess is merely the least among them.

[lunchpenalty]

Your reasoning?

[neutralityloli]

The prince had been the one who forced himself on her, responsible for her running away, and while the bull may have been the one directly responsible for killing her, was a mere animal, acting on instinct; the king, meanwhile, should have listened to the princess, like a good father does, and not allowed it to happen. The princess, she, of course, should have not ignored the danger signs; but in the end, if she had been luckier and not at the wrong place at the wrong time, would not have been killed. But this is a story, and going by the rules of a sorry, it is likely that she would have ended up dying no matter where she would have gone to.

I think that was a pretty good argument.

[ genuinely surprised ] Really?

Thank you.

[lunchpenalty]

There's no reason in me lying is there? Most of us have different opinions on something like this, but the fact that you're able to back it up so well is admirable.

You're welcome, though.

[neutralityloli]

Oh, yes, of course not. It is true that this is all a matter of opinion. I'm sorry, I was simply a little surprised that you said what your said despite our differing opinions. [ he said it's admirable he said it's admirable this is so flattering she was never told that before ] But I do prefer for others respect it when I state my views.

[lunchpenalty]

It should be a given that people's opinions should be respected, even if they're different from your own. Sadly, that's not always the case....

[neutralityloli]

Oh, yes. Unfortunately, it appears many disagree on that.

[lunchpenalty]

They do, don't they?
