So we've had a few acts of villainy and a call to band the heroes of Kanto and Johto together in a valiant attempt against the machinations of evil. Another game begins, and both players have made their starting moves to varying levels of success. I wonder what the native inhabitants make of us outsiders and our grand plans for this world, be it its subjugation or its salvation. This world has long existed, thrived even, without our interference. Law and lawlessness co-exist in equal balance with neither the police force or Team Rocket achieving the upper hand over each other. But the locals do not seem particularly bothered, almost accepting even, of the continued existence of our not-so-enigmatic criminal organization. I'm curious to see how this chessboard will withstand the influx of new rules and pieces that we bring to the table. Will it embrace and adapt the coming changes, or crumble under the weight of our foreign dreams and desires to recreate a world that functions not unlike our own?
Musings aside, one has to wonder: if a recruitment drive has been made to bolster the ranks of the heroes, then how does one enter the other side? I ask purely out of curiosity; I don't have any plans of being an active player.

Date: 2014-01-10 07:09 pm (UTC)as for the answer to all those pretty words i'd say that this place has been holdin up well enough for so long. whatever we bring it probably won't crumple easily. like to think it's better than a stack of cards anyway.
personally i just hope that either side doesn't bother me. can't say i'm interested in all this good and evil business.

Date: 2014-01-11 01:35 am (UTC)Worlds are fragile creations. My travels had taken me to quite a few, and yet all it took was the presence of foreign intruders to throw each and every one of them into chaos. They weren't prepared to play by the new rules, and thus succumbed to darkness and nothingness.
If this world is truly different from the rest, then I would love to see what we will make of it.
A wise choice. Lady Luck will see to the both of them; I would rather look to my own affairs.

Good and evil are irrelevant to a well-earned victory, so I don't have to bother about them. In the end, it's all about the cards you're given and how you choose to play them.
