You always think you're making the right decision at the time.

[Until it's too late does someone realize it's the wrong decision.]

[nofarplaneyet]

It's true. The thing is, with our kind of decision, other people would keep on making the same incorrect choice. Forever and ever in Spira, always stuck believing there was only one choice.

So I had to fix it.

[sonicblade]

Did you?

[nofarplaneyet]

I did but I wasn't really the one who came up with the idea. Between me and a friend, we realized that this problem was bigger than the both of us. So we had to get help and get more people involved to find a better way.

I'm not saying you can't solve your problem your way, Cloud. But I am saying that sometimes you can be so absorbed in how you see something that you make yourself think there's no other solution.

[sonicblade]

I guess.

[But he didn't believe it. What other solution could there possibly be? He did try to control the Darkness and look where it got him. Keeping it suppressed was the only way.]

[nofarplaneyet]

[Not like he can help a man solve his problems in one shot. Still, he hoped that at least he gave Cloud something else to think about. Even if it took a while for him to accept.]

Just wanted to give you options, that's all. There's probably a lot more people than you think willing to listen to you if you wanted to ask for more help.

Don't ignore it. Lecture over. [Now his tea's at the perfect temperature to drink.]

[sonicblade]

[Cloud just gave Auron an unamused look over his tea, but he really was thinking over those words.

It wasn't that he didn't want to ask for help, he just didn't want anyone involved.]

...thanks.
