  <title>Twenty-Seventh Shooting Star - voice;</title>

  <description>&lt;small&gt;[It&apos;s been about four months now since he had his talk with Lea. Most of that time he&apos;s spent trying to keep his spirits high. Socializing with friends, going on with his day-to-day routines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But a recent talk with Masaomi and the whole lantern ceremony a few weeks back smacked him in the face and brought those words back into the forefront of his mind. The fact is, his future&apos;s far from pleasant. All signs point to one massive failure for him and his friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here he is, journal in his lap. Maybe it&apos;s time to finally air those thoughts.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, um... I know at least a couple of you guys have bumped into people from the past or the future, but have you ever been hit with some &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; bad news? Like, say you had this goal to save a friend. Keep &apos;em from losing themselves, but it turns out you failed. That friend doesn&apos;t just lose themselves: they become somebody else&apos;s vessel. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If something like that &lt;i&gt;did&lt;/i&gt; happen, what&apos;d you do? &apos;Cause for me, knowing really hasn&apos;t helped. I&apos;m stuck with the fact that I couldn&apos;t save my two best friends, and when I get back, I&apos;ll probably forget that I ever found out. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just hate feeling so &lt;i&gt;helpless.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[There, he got that off his chest. That&apos;s the first step.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But it got me thinking about something else, too. Say we find a way to get back home without forgetting everything. Do you think it&apos;d be wrong to try and change that future? Because I feel like I &lt;i&gt;should&lt;/i&gt; so that my friends don&apos;t end up suffering, but doing something like that means changing the futures for everyone else, doesn&apos;t it? And I dunno if that&apos;s really fair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[Sigh. What a mess.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dunno. It&apos;s all way too complicated. Makes me wish they were here now so I could ask them about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=risingwinds&amp;ditemid=14244&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
