need a favor

[thermalwind]

Hey, so, I need a favor or a few. Whether you're going to fight to defend the sun or not. It would be a good idea to pool favors together for first aid kits and better light sources.

With enough favors, we can get enough and have some to spare. I'm aiming to get as much supplies as I can so count me all in. - Keith

[ooc: Favors tallied over here. Make sure to toss up a comment with how many favors are going to this.]

And some people hunt a giant hog across the frozen land and kill it to make sure the sun comes back.

This is a thing that happens every year I assume, so shouldn't things work out as they must? A week of darkness is better than 67 days.

[thermalwind]

If you're not going to listen. Why are you wasting my time?

I did read it, but isn't it sensible to tho k about it deeper? I know this is a fantastical magical world, but, will the sun really have the potential to die and never return? It's strange to think about.

[thermalwind]

Yes, it's strange. But every bit of intell I've gotten here supports what they're saying. It could be the sun is a high-tech device that needs to recharge every so many years.

We don't know. We only know that they're preparing for a siege. No one does that lightly.

[despairing_hope]

It depends on perspective. Also, I have no doubt about the danger. But, do we know that the sun is truly in danger? To find out we would need to risk it, and the potential that it is makes the risk too high, so no one will do it. But, doesn't it feel like the sort of thing that would be fine? Otherwise how did it survive it's cycles before? There can't have always been someone to defend it.

[thermalwind]

True, but it has someone to defend it now. We're all going to find out just how much danger is out there when it goes dark for a week.

Were you going to offer up favors? - Keith

[despairing_hope]

That doesn't answer the question on whether it is truly needed though. But, regardless of the sun, I have no doubts it will be dangerous. The dark is the most dangerous of all.

In fact, if you think about it, the sun slowly dying, and the world going dark, is like the world falling into despair. Slowly enveloping the light of the world, but, the spark of Hope will always live, and again it will brighten and beat back the darkness!

I look forward to this week.

As for favors, I'll talk to Hinata kun.

[...

Hope didn't need to be capitalized like that?]

How can you look forward to this?
People are going to get hurt!

- Keith

[despairing_hope]

[Of course it did.]

Because, after the darkest hour, the bright morning sun will be even more beautiful than before. Great things always come after tragedy.

[thermalwind]

Let's focus on surviving first. You can be happy about what happened after that.

[despairing_hope]

Of course, of course.

[thermalwind]

Anything else you wanted to talk about?

[He's going to be here a while anyway.]
