Entry tags:
Day 151 | Open
Who: Ryu and anyone who will humor him with questions.
Open: Open
When: Day 151
Where: All around the Bastion.
What: Ryu has some difficult questions for people.
Format: Either
Warnings: Possible mention of death/war/other upsetting topics. His questions today are running on the existential side.
After all the excitement of the day, Ryu is still left with questions. He just doesn't understand why people hurt each other, or go to war. He doesn't understand why people have to fight. None of this makes sense. And his heart hurts at thinking about all of these things, so there's really only one thing to do.
In the evening, Ryu approaches people, gently clearing his throat or tugging their sleeve if it doesn't look like that will provoke violence. It doesn't really matter the age - he knows he's one of the youngest in the Bastion anyway, even if he doesn't look it. Still, the worry in his eyes is evident as he speaks softly.
"... Do you mind answering some questions?"

[He thinks about that for a few moments.]
If everyone has what they need, like food and shelter and things like that, it'll be easier to have peace. And if we can talk out the problems, maybe we can... at least stop some of the fighting.
[Don't mind Ryu, he's an idealist.]
no subject
[He doesn't want to burst Ryu's bubble, or even really contradict him; The Kid wants to see how he'd handle the situation, maybe even a little of him was hoping he'd have a good answer to come back with.]
no subject
[It... doesn't really make much sense to him.]
But... if that happened, maybe we can ask them why they feel that way? It seems kind of strange to me.
