Hey, everyone. It's... been quiet. I know it's sort of a complicated question, but... how is everyone?
[ As usual, Link's presence in Communion is humble and mild. Where he would normally be accompanied by the smell of morning dew on grass or the sensation of cold wind pricking one's cheeks, today is different — it's warm, like you're sitting next to an indoor fireplace, and there's a strong scent of expresso mixed with a hint of dusty paper. ]
Something has been on my mind lately. If you don't want to talk, you can tune this out now. It's fine.
[ Link usually does not manifest a physical, visual image in Communion, but there's a slight, soft imprint of the ridges of his fingerprint scraping against the edge of a sheet of paper. ]
Have you heard of "fate" before? Um, I guess most of you probably have, but it was sort of new to me. Not something I ever really thought about until I came to Kenos.
It's this idea of... everything that has happened, was always going to happen. And everything that will happen in the future has already been decided on, and can't be changed.
Do you think it's real? And what about... "destiny"? Is it different from fate, or the same thing?

Yeah, man. Sure, like... things were probably different where you were from and all that.

You sound like you don't believe me...

[ Link sighs, exasperated, but he knows Atsumu well enough not to get too offended. ]
I'm not lying, though. I had a role to play. And I started thinking, could that be a thing here in Kenos, too?

[ He doesn't really buy it, but... ]
If it's fate, then fate ain't exactly being clear right now what it wants from everyone, given people keep sortin' themselves on different sides of things. You know, our side and the wrong side.

[ He mumbles, sounding a little defeated. It sounds like Atsumu isn't the best person to get a deep answer on this. ]
But... it could be someone's fate to be on the wrong side. Fate can be bad, or good, or neutral.
no subject
What's the point of fate if it's gonna be shitty?
no subject
[ Link sighs. This is going nowhere! ]
Nevermind. I get it, you don't believe in it.
no subject
Yeah, can't say I really buy into it. I've always been a make my own destiny kinda guy.
