To all of you here with some sort of... power.

Why do you think it brings you strength? It is a crutch that will do nothing but hinder the development of your own strength and skill. Find yourself with out it and nearly anything can take you down.

That's subjective, isn't it? Power and strength, Kenji. If you lost your skills, wouldn't that have the same result?

I think the true strength is emotional and mental. The one that comes with maturity.

To some people, these powers are like a natural thing, you know? Like an arm or a leg or a heart. It's part of what they are, but what matters is who they are. Some of them aren't even humans and shouldn't be hold in physical standards of humanity.

If there's a resource available, what's the point in not using it?

Aren't you just being elitist? Sure, it's important to be able to take care of yourself regardless of the situation, but skill is skill however you look at it.

You sound like one of those guys who likes to brag about how he can fight blindfolded and with a hand tied behind his back, but worse, because you want everyone else to do it all the time too. Some of us don't have the luxury of working under a handicap just to prove some kind of point. As long as I have things to fight for, I'll fight with every weapon I have.

Jealous?

[whackanarche]

Then what's the point of your little spiel?

[tanukiryu]

I want to know what the point of gaining power from an outside source is. Build your own strength.

[obliviomancy]

It's not a crutch. And it's definitely not that easy to lose.

[tanukiryu]

[obliviomancy]

But that doesn't mean you will.

[tanukiryu]

Why take that chance?
