Forgiveness.

[Hello, fellow Vatheonites. Jacob hasn't spoken to you in a while. He gazes at the camera with pensive eyes, pausing before continuing to speak.]

Forgiveness is a rather complicated subject. Everyone knows what forgiveness is, but when it comes to actually thinking about how to use it in a situation, there are no clear rules about it.

Everyone deserves a chance? Tch. If they screwed up once, they're screwed.

[He smiles, as if amused.] So, if you made a mistake, then you should expect nobody forgiving you with that logic, am I correct?

Whatever they want to do, it doesn't matter to me whether they forgive me or not. It isn't my job to care about what other people think.

So, you go through life, doing your own thing without listening to other people's advice?

You're a rather independent spirit, I must say.

Gotta be independent sometimes. People can't hold your hand forever, y'know.

voice;

[nos_servabit]

It is not always about holding hands. It is just having people around you who you love and trust.

[foodchewing]

Love, huh...

[She's thoughtful for just a moment.]

Hard to find stuff like that, these days.

It may be hard, but that doesn't stop people from trying to find it, does it?

voice;

[foodchewing]

Usually. And then you get the people who just don't care.

Just because you meet one hundred uncaring people doesn't mean you will never find the one who cares about you.

And take a chance on the uncaring people too. They may shut themselves in at first, but may prove to be valuable acquaintances in the end.

[...Heh.]

Right. Well hey, what happens when ya never find that one person?

[She is kinda dead after all, and she has no interest on finding anyone here.]

You talk like ya know what you're talking about, but that stuff was never true for me.

Well, I didn't have any people around me back home, but that doesn't mean I was alone. There is always someone out there who will care and respect you for who you are. We are not born to shun others- we are born to rely on them.

If you don't find them, keep trying. Keep talking with people. Never give up.

[foodchewing]

I probably would've believed that, once. But whatever, it doesn't matter anyway.

[There's the sound of a plastic wrapper perhaps unwrapping a sweet of some kind on her end, as she thinks about it for a minute.]

What if you don't really care to find those people?

[Video]

[nos_servabit]

Then you'll be alone unless someone caring tries to force their way into your life.

voice;

[foodchewing]

Guess so. Doesn't matter much to me, though - I work better alone.

Some people do. They do better by themselves than in groups. Doesn't mean they don't need people, though.
