[VOICE :: English]Well..I'm sure everything seems to be back to it's normal level of depraved sanity. Personally I think seeing the lot of you comatose was, admittingly, one of the er...more interesting little bits of excitement that's gone on in this wondrous city

People who need to see something to beleive it true, annoy the hell out of me.

[x_dilettante_x]

Not much favor for Doubting Thomases?

[kan_chyan]

None. Most people who need to see things first, no matter what, will come up with the most ridiculous excuses as to why something can't happen. And in most situations it's their own fault they can't see. Regardless of what you tell them, they will always think you wrong or stupid!

[x_dilettante_x]

Ah, but maybe they're playing things for their own safety. Ignorance is always better when considering some of the more ah....preternatural bits of the world.

[dividend]

Believing.

[x_dilettante_x]

You know...that answer does not surprise me as much as it should.

[dividend]

W-why's that?

[x_dilettante_x]

well, I've never really met a lawyer with a heart so- most things your do surprise me. Then I realize just who it is and all unnaturalness vanishes.

[He uses a very casual tone, your too nice a guy Phoenix.]

[prodigal_axe]

Could be wrong either way...

[x_dilettante_x]

Well, it's not really if it's wrong or right- just, which one do you prefer?

[prodigal_axe]

I meant...wouldn't wanna rely too much on either of 'em.

If I had to pick one, I'd go with instinct.

[x_dilettante_x]

There's an interesting pick- what third option is there?

You do strike me as a gut man, Shinji.

[theforceoncrack]

....Huh.

[x_dilettante_x]

Do you follow your gut on things, or believe things at face value.

[theforceoncrack]

You can't trust everything you see. But some people've got good instincts. It's something you develop.

[x_dilettante_x]

It's easy to say that, but sometimes what you see is hard to ignore. Classic examples seem to flood this place- specially lately.

Wait...develop a gut instinct?

[He's had his for years so- he has no idea what you mean :|]

[princelyrose]

Believing first...and working hard to make sure it's true.

[x_dilettante_x]

Mm, but that still sounds a bit like your not quite sure it's what it has to be.

[princelyrose]

It all depends on what, or who, it is, you know?

[x_dilettante_x]

I'm afraid not darling, I'm not much for particulars. More of a general idea kind of bloke.
