There are no dumb questions... Part 1.

@ Cinjin and Min, you guys are hopeless.

No, hope doesn't abandon someone who knows their future is unwritten and that their actions are their own. Theres always the promise of change dictated by decisions that define the essence of who they are.
Hope abandons someone who relinquishes their free will to another, imaginary or otherwise. Their story is already written, their actions not their own. You are a slave, restrained by mind forged shackles. No more defined by your actions than any other puppet would be. There can be no hope for you as long as this is the case.
