005 ※ VOICE (dated to a more regular hour in the day)

Jun 19, 2011 02:11

I had hoped a city with as ridiculous a power as granting wishes would be able to relieve me of my boredom, but it appears not. Really, you all ought to be ashamed of yourselves. Is it really so difficult to keep a single lady entertained? Truly, it is a pity ( Read more... )

"Every moment yields a new copy of who we are. There're infinite possibilities."

That's what some people think.

voice; silpheeding June 21 2011, 06:11:39 UTC

A new copy? I believe I would word it a bit differently, but I feel rather inclined to agree with it.

However, what do you think? Is it safe to assume you are not included within that "some people"?

voice; claim_my_place June 22 2011, 02:45:31 UTC

Potential, alternate, whatever.

[To a degree he's witnessed some of this. On the other hand, there's a theory that was presented to him by someone from his own world that bothers him.]

...Depends.

If you took someone out of a moment and put them somewhere or sometime else at random, are they the same person as the one who continues down a linear path or someone else?

voice; silpheeding June 22 2011, 08:46:50 UTC

As far as I am concerned they are the same person. Perhaps they will become a different person than if they had never been placed elsewhere, but that is difficult to say for certain as well.

voice; claim_my_place June 27 2011, 02:25:32 UTC

[Asch makes a considering sound in the back of his throat.]

There's more than one path, of that I have no doubt. The problem's where they end up.

voice; silpheeding June 27 2011, 08:56:48 UTC

Again, it is hard to say. Perhaps the paths will lead to the same destination, or perhaps they will go on completely separate journeys. Without a way to view them all simultaneously, it's all just conjecture.

[Which she had the power to, to be honest. But that was a bit different from this.]

voice; claim_my_place July 2 2011, 21:56:51 UTC

If the paths all lead to the same conclusion, then free will is meaningless.

[He's parroting something he's heard for almost half his life.]

voice; silpheeding July 3 2011, 06:56:42 UTC

You believe so? It has been my personal experience that free will and determination can change a numerous amount of things. [a beat] Of course, I can only vouch for my own world. Perhaps yours works differently.

voice; claim_my_place July 5 2011, 04:25:29 UTC

If you end up in the same place no matter what choices you make.

The only way those things would have any power, and the only way that change would be possible is if an opportunity for more than one outcome already existed.

voice; silpheeding July 5 2011, 11:40:24 UTC

Countless possibilities always exist, sometimes even leading to the creation of parallel worlds and timelines.

voice; claim_my_place July 6 2011, 00:38:06 UTC

Have you witnessed this firsthand?

voice; silpheeding July 7 2011, 07:29:54 UTC

Yes, I have. [Though it's not exactly pleasant being able to.]

voice, private; claim_my_place July 10 2011, 18:11:21 UTC

How? [He wants to know, not that he expects an answer.]

voice, private; silpheeding July 11 2011, 06:56:09 UTC

A position granted to me through the power of another. [She'll answer alright, but it's not like she'll be specific.]

voice, private; claim_my_place July 13 2011, 03:25:14 UTC

[Well.]

[Not that he's unfamiliar with being granted powers through other beings or anything. If you want to call Lorelei a "being". Not at all.]

A birthright or something earned?

voice, private; silpheeding July 13 2011, 11:26:54 UTC

A little of both, I suppose.
