It's been a while, but I suppose I'm curious—and it's hard to do much for curiosity, once it's born, is there? Some feelings can't be snuffed out, once they exist, no matter how much you might wish for it.

[ The voice is that of a young woman, somewhere between late teens and early twenties, lower-middle pitch and a steady cadence. A little tired, perhaps a little bored, but not irritably so. ]

Darkness, Earth, Water, Light, Wind, or Flame.

Choose one, please. But, before you do, know that there's no right answer, or wrong answer, and there's no moral component to any of them. "Light" doesn't mean good; "darkness" doesn't mean evil. Only whichever suits you. Something a little trivial, perhaps, but I'd like to hear your answers.

Thanks.

There might not be a moral component to them, but they still stand for or symbolize something, yeah?

Very well. Then for me, darkness.

It was the first I was drawn to on the list. I didn't check anyone else's responses. Should I have done so?

I see. So, what happens after someone answers?

[personal profile] hisheartsdesire 2015-06-20 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Worthwhile for you, or for those who've replied? I mean, I ought to say, I don't mind—I'm still trying to acclimatise and get used to the tiny phone.

That wasn't an answer. [He sounds amused.] But yeah, I only arrived here earlier this month. There are some things I'm not quite familiar with, though I'm sure I'll get things sorted. Eventually.

I'll withhold judgment for now. After all, we've just met. Though, I must say, how forthright your opinion of yourself is.
hisheartsdesire: (ltj 3)

[personal profile] hisheartsdesire 2015-06-20 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, that's fair. Well, out of the things you'd mentioned, which happens to be your choice?
hisheartsdesire: (crush 2)

[personal profile] hisheartsdesire 2015-06-20 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
And what does the choice of light mean to you?

[personal profile] hisheartsdesire 2015-06-21 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
That—certainly is all true, that I know of, when it comes to persistence, truth, and justice. [Though her words have given him some pause.] And what of darkness, then?
hisheartsdesire: (ltj 2)

[personal profile] hisheartsdesire 2015-06-21 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, right. I'm sure people have been asking you the meanings this whole time, so it's only fair to shed one's own thoughts on the matter.

[Humming in thought.] Light and darkness, eternally at play. They always touch but never mingle, yet the darkness always recedes, gives way, or relents in the presence of light. The darkness only ever stays as close as light allows. Its methods are obscure and unknown, and it takes but a beat to change shape or form or course. It may make or build ones dreams as quickly as it collapses in despair. At the end of darkness is the beginning of light, but the opposite is true as well.

And so, darkness is yielding, mysterious, whimsical. Start or finish, it is the end. It is finality and resolution, but it also is innovation and revolution, heartache and depression. It is necessary, absolutely vital.

I once reached a point of finality, one might even consider it absolution. But now, I find myself at the beginning again, and the cycle continues. Still, always in the darkness. It suits me, I think.

[Somewhat sheepishly:] Ah—no, you're all right. I have died before; I should've guessed putting it that way would make it pretty obvious.
