[Scar is discovering the magic of nightblogging. Perhaps not the best idea in the world, but his conversation with Ib a while back has left him thinking.

Is there actually a purpose to this second chance?]

I am curious. Do you view coming here as a bump in the road, or as a second chance for something?

[Because let's be real this can't possibly just be a giant afterlife serial killer rehab universe.]

Were we brought here for a purpose? For our own benefit?

Not big on fighting, are you?

Personally, I'd like to think there's a way to find out. I just don't expect it to happen any time soon. I swear, the mysteries here just keep piling up. The ledges are another big one.

[envy_the_sinners]

Special powers are unnecessary for fighting, and true violence is so rare here that fighting itself is unneeded.

[That, or the crime rate is completely normal, and Scar just has a very skewed perception of it thanks to the miserable state in which Amestris had placed the rest of his world.]

The ledges are ridiculous.

[islandshore]

Eh, maybe, but I still prefer to take care of myself. But maybe that's because I've already spent years training a team. It just isn't as fulfilling as it used to be.

[But then, Riku lacks Scar's harrowing experiences. He may be a few years older now, but his life's been so peaceful that it's easy to take things for granted. As for the ledges...]

You ever try to climb one?

[envy_the_sinners]

Yes, I have tried to climb one. It truly seems to be completely impossible.
