What would you do if you were given a second chance?

What would you feel?

QUADRANTS ARE ALWAYS SERIOUS BUSINESS FOR TROLLS.

WHAT ABOUT YOU ANYWAY.
WHY ARE YOU ASKING THIS SORT OF QUESTION IF YOU'RE ABLE TO ANSWER RELATED QUESTIONS?

kirei no don't ask about quadrants

[structuraldefect]

What would the other three be? I'm assuming one translates into romantic love?

I wanted to hear what other people thought. It seems to be a rich topic for discussion, apparently.

it's a trap

[papshooshing]

ALL OF THEM ARE ROMANTIC IN NATURE.
FOR HUMANS, UNLESS YOU ARE SOMETHING OTHER THAN THAT THEN OOPS, LOVE HAS DIFFERENT MEANINGS
HOWEVER YOU GUYS ONLY HAVE ONE TYPE OF LOVE THAT SEEMS TO CORRELATE TO ROMANCE.
THAT'S NOT EXACTLY THE CASE WITH US.
OUR ROMANCES ARE DEFINED BY VARYING DEGREES OF HATE AND WHAT YOU WOULD TRADITIONALLY THINK OF AS "LOVE."
I COULD GO ON ABOUT THIS TOPIC, BUT ABOUT NINETY PERCENT OF THE TIME, NO ONE GIVES A DAMN.
IT'S A SHAME, REALLY.
QUADRANTS ARE BEAUTIFUL THINGS.

Hate? Over here, it tends to be thought that the two should be opposites.

[papshooshing]

THAT'S BECAUSE MOST OF THE TIME HUMANS ARE TOO PRIMITIVE TO EVEN UNDERSTAND THEMSELVES.
PASSION IS PASSION JUST LIKE LUST IS LUST.
YOU CAN PASSIONATELY "LOVE" SOMEONE JUST AS MUCH AS YOU CAN HATE SOMEONE WITH JUST AS MUCH FERVOR.
OF COURSE OUR HATE-ORIENTED QUADRANT IS MORE OF AN ETERNAL RIVALRY SORT OF THING.
ESSENTIALLY, THOUGH, IT COMES DOWN TO THIS:
DOING SWEET THINGS FOR THE PERSON YOU "LOVE" SENDS THE SAME KIND OF RUSH THROUGH YOUR SYSTEM THAT GETTING ONE UP ON SOMEONE YOU HATE DOES.
HATE AND "LOVE" ARE SIMPLY TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN.

Sometimes there are rules we can't allow ourselves to break, or a line we can't cross. Following a passion once will lead to doing so again, and each one becomes easier to allow than the last. You are taught that all passions are equal, whereas we are taught that some are more acceptable than others.

[papshooshing]

BUT WHY NOT?
WHAT'S THE HARM IN CROSSING OVER SOME OF THESE METAPHORICAL LINES.
FROM WHAT I'VE OBSERVED, MOST OF THE TIME IT JUST MEANS BEING OSTRACIZED BY THE POPULACE
IT'S NOT A LIFE OR DEATH SCENARIO.

[structuraldefect]

There's usually harm beyond that. If not to yourself, than to others.

[papshooshing]

EXAMPLES WOULD BE REALLY NICE
ALL THE VAGUENESS AND GENERALIZATIONS DO NOT HELP WHEN SOMEONE'S FROM A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MINDSET.

[structuraldefect]

Let's say it's anger. Wrath. Is it worth yelling at someone you're angry with, if it might hurt their feelings?

[papshooshing]

IF YELLING HURTS THEIR FEELINGS WHEN THE ANGER IS JUSTIFIABLE AND GENUINE, THEN THE OBVIOUS SOLUTION IS TO GET THICKER SKIN.
EITHER THAT OR IT CAN BE TAKEN AS A BLACK SOLICITATION.
