It's easier when I don't really have homework or exams to worry about. [he admits. at least not in the same way of have to get into a good highschool, since you know. the trench.]

[jedies]

It is not simply a matter of homework. It's also about opening your heart and feelings and learn best how to manage them. Which can be taxing in its own way.

[centile]

[yeah it sounds it, enough for mob to give a tiny frown.] Did you have trouble with this kind of thing too once, Master Obi-Wan?

[jedies]

Yes. We all do, even if we don't easily admit it. We all sometimes succumb to feelings that make us want to hurt someone in anger or in pain. We have moments of doubt and fear that control us.

It is a part of life itself. But you can still decide for yourself. The choice matters.

Master Reigen used to say something like that. He said what matters is choosing to be kind even when it's hard to.

Sometimes I wish I didn't have these powers at all though. [not something he usually admits, but this discussion has been nice. enlightening, if a bit daunting. like talking to someone who really did get it.]

[jedies]

[ he nods slowly. ]

There's nothing wrong with that. Having powers isn't always a gift. Sometimes it feels limiting.

[centile]

I wish more people thought that. So many want to fight to prove they're stronger, or because they think it makes them special.

No one's done that here though. Maybe it's different when everyone is like this.

[jedies]

I think the caliber of people that come through here are different.

It doesn't necessarily mean no one in their own worlds desire power and strength. But ultimately, it's how you use your power that separates you from the rest.

[centile]

Do you think that's why people end up here? Because they're different like that.

[jedies]

It is possible. But I could not say for certain. We seem to gather an extraordinary caliber of people.
