genessia | 008: An Upcoming Change [Anon Text]

[Since Weiss' party, the issue of how many people really just wanted out had started to get under Zelos' skin. He knew, hell, he'd known since he got here, that there was literally no way for him to get home - and even if there was, he'd sooner stick with his life in Genessia over his life back there. Weiss had said she'd keep him in mind, but...how many other people really did? What about all these self-righteous Guardians who were vowing to get anyone and everyone back?

Finally, he'd had enough of pondering (well, seething would be a more accurate world), so he sent out an anonymous message to the whole of Genessia.]

So, I've been listening in on some of the speeches the wannabe Guardians have been making. Also, been here quite a while, and the ton of 'wah wah wah how do I get home' comments is really starting to do my head in.

Throw me a line here. I can't seriously be the only one who can't or doesn't want to go back to my old world, can I?

[Once he'd sent it out, of course, he immediately regretted it - especially as he half suspected the people who knew him well enough would be able to recognise him from the way he typed. Well, it was too late to do anything about that now.

...Damn, he could be such a moron sometimes.]

I might've done the same a while ago, but sometimes it's important to realize that other people don't have the same perspective as you. Hopefully those people will someday realize that their opinion isn't the only important one, and not always the only correct one. As much as they may like feeling like they're right.

Yeah, you'd hope so, but a lot of them seem pretty stuck in their ways. However hard you try, it's near impossible to change some people's minds once they've made it up.

I know I'm pretty biased on some things, as well.

We all have our own biases and anyone who claims they don't is a liar. I've learned as long as you don't let those biases run your life or ruin someone else's and you're willing to improve, things can get better though.

Once those people see that it's possible to stay and that there are people who are willing to in actual practice, perhaps they won't make such a fuss about it.

Huh, that's a pretty good take-home message, I guess. Been trying to work on that whole 'bias' thing, but...guess it doesn't really apply to anyone here. Not that I know of.

Well, you never know. I'm hoping that so long as us sticking around doesn't get in the way of other people going home, they'll quit their whining.

Maybe not yet.

I have no idea why anyone would think it could possibly impact that. No one here came in at the same time as everyone else, there's no reason that everyone should have to go home at the same time. That kind of thinking is beyond bias, it's idiotic.

Huh. That's an interesting way to put it...you've got a point though.

Of course I do!
