::So if you're passing by the harbor, you'll see Niyo near her bike, with coffee, leaning on a rail, sipping on coffee. Though while she seems wistful, you get the slight sense she might toss herself into the tides at any chance should she wander in her thoughts too long.

Talk to her perhaps?::

I did not say "pathetic", I said pitiable.

You would be "pathetic" if you managed to succeed in your intention.

[isdragonlady]

And how am I pitiable?

[memoryistime]

You are considering ending your own life.

That is the most pitiable thought you could hold.

[isdragonlady]

My life is empty and meaningless.

[memoryistime]

*he tilts his head*

No life is empty and meaningless. Even when you are at the pit of despair, it will turn out that there is something necessary.

[isdragonlady]

... What

[memoryistime]

... What? Is there something baffling about my statement?

[isdragonlady]

How am I necessary in the slightest?

[memoryistime]

I do not know. After all, I do not know you.

But I know well enough the folly of considering one's life to be "meaningless".

[isdragonlady]

Well you'd have to prove it isn't meaningless, then. Because I sure as hell don't believe otherwise.

[memoryistime]

Why?

[isdragonlady]

Take me out of the equation and everyone would be a hell of a lot better off or no real change at all.

[memoryistime]

And what basis do you have, to state that anyone would be "better off"?

That is assumptive and self-demeaning. The statement that anyone would be "better off" is only an excuse created to rationalize such a decision.

[isdragonlady]

Because my life has been one fuck up after another.

[memoryistime]

Why is that?

Have you attempted to determine the reasoning for your troubles? The source? Solutions?

[isdragonlady]

It's called "I'm cursed".

[memoryistime]

Then break the curse.

This is an unusual city. Is that entirely out of the bounds of reality?

*he does seem unusually pushy about this*

[isdragonlady]

I've tried. I keep getting more soul crushing curses. And what the hell business is it of yours if I off myself, anyways?

::Finishes the coffee and tosses it into the ocean.::

[memoryistime]

*... he looks away slightly*

I feel obligated that no one repeats my mistake, if I come across it.

*... what.*

[isdragonlady]

What.

::She says that pretty flatly.::

[memoryistime]

... I have stated it clearly. I wish for no one to repeat my mistake.

[isdragonlady]

... Well, your mistake obviously failed if you're still here.

[memoryistime]

It is odd, is it not?

*he turns to look over the ocean, tilting his head slightly*

It did not fail.

[isdragonlady]

Well, if you're here, it failed.

[memoryistime]

*he sighs slightly*

Well... I suppose in a way, it did fail.

While I am certainly dead, due to a contract, my spirit was forced to linger within the confines of Makai.
