10th

It's a shame winter doesn't last longer. I would like to see more snow, don't you think, mom?

[Merem and Ciel are taking a walk in the park, enjoying the warm weather like a normal family. Keywords there on normal. Unfortunately, there's an interloper here in the form of Arcueid, the Princess of the True Ancestors.]

IDIOT NUN!!

[The White Princess takes a hefty swing and nails Ciel right in the stomach. Even though she should be in horrid pain, she's still smiling. And she keeps smiling after a few more punches go to her face, which causes Arcueid to pause.]

What are you doing, Princess? This kind of thing is useless, you know? Watch and see.

[Merem grabs Ciel's arm and without pause, pulls her down and bites her neck. All the way through. Her head rolls off in a small spray of arterial blood and Merem grabs it before it hits the ground. The Crown starts to spin the head around on his finger struggling to balance it like a basket ball.]

See? It has to be like that.

I didn't want to kill her, I just wanted to beat her up for being stupid. I guess she managed to run away by getting droned because she knew what was coming. Or I guess maybe she didn't. Either way that shell is useless so you can do what you want with her.

[WELL. At least one of them is impressed with Merem's mad skillz.

Arcueid and Merem will be replying separately.]

The drones do not always stay at such so harming them is the same as harming a proper life. I will not comment on wishing for a fight, but how did it come to this?

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Merem is Merem. He eats humans, it's really simple.

It's a drone anyway, it's only human in biology.

[yamaxanadu]

Eating humans is fine, being overly destructive about it is not. Disregarding the life of the drones also is not. These actions are all Black.

You're pretty preachy...it's really boring.

I've killed a whole lot of people, most of them related to me, because I was supposed to. So what's that make me then?

[yamaxanadu]

I am a judge, it is within my nature. [Though she didn't really like being called preachy.]

If you were suppose to than that is acceptable.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

But it's still killing, right? I mean, I killed a lot of them...I think. It was pretty fun, and I think it was all to protect the world but it's still murder.

It's okay as long as it's convenient? [Oh yea, she's in a bad mood, so she's being a HUGE bitch right now.]

[yamaxanadu]

No, but the reason is not at fault and there is more balance involved. The effect of the action is measured against the action itself. In the case of doing what is suppose to be done and the well being that action causes good deeds can be in more abundance than sins and the verdict would be a more positive one. Hardly a ruling deserving of Heaven but perhaps a ruling that involves reincarnation of some sort. It is the difference between allowing reincarnation and damning straight to Hell, or even a lesser sentence in Hell.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

[Arcueid looks pretty confused by that information.]

I'm not sure I know what you just said...but it still sounds pretty convenient to me.

[yamaxanadu]

Hardly, it is a very involved process. Judgement needs to be fair and consider all aspects of a persons life and the effects of their actions on others. Though one may do various sinful acts if their acts bring greater good it must be noted, it also must be noted on how they carry themselves while doing those acts. If the results are an accident resulting from a maniac who isn't considering their actions in anyway then those good aspects are not counted as highly as those who understood their situation.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

That sounds really dumb, and still really preachy.

You shouldn't force your views on other people, you know.

[yamaxanadu]

It's how the system works, it's the same for all who die. I'm not forcing anything I simply uphold the balance of the system.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Or does the system work that way because you force it on everyone else?

[yamaxanadu]

No, it works that way because without it the cycle of life and death would halt.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

That really doesn't sound like how it works, though.

Maybe in your world?

[yamaxanadu]

And you are familiar with how things work outside the world of life and death? You know how the dead are processed?

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. I don't know everything but I've seen enough.

[Yea she's just straight up lying now.]

[yamaxanadu]

Do not lie to me.

[Since Eiki got back her ability to see in Black and White, she is again a walking lie detector.]

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

[Arcueid grins.]

Either way, I know we don't have somebody judging us and sending us to heaven or hell, though.

Right now you're just a preachy person telling us how to live...kind of like the church does.

[yamaxanadu]

I'm not telling you how to live, I'm simply telling you what is going on right now is inappropriate.

[makemebreakfast.livejournal.com]

Well, you can tell that to him if you want, but I think you'd probably have even less luck of convincing him.

I think he knows everything, or something.
