Once upon a time, there was a little kitten.

[A picture of a kitten appears.]

The kitten loved to play, and she spent her days running around the city, trying to find other kittens to play with. Instead, she found a little girl.

[And the picture of the little girl appears.]

The kitten loved the little girl, and the little girl loved the kitten. But one day a group of bullies showed up.

[This picture of bullies could be better, but shh.]

They teased the little girl, and taunted her for taking care of something so small and weak. They ripped the kitten out of her hands and tossed it down the alley. The kitten was okay, but they beat up the girl.

The little girl had to recover for a long time, and the kitten found her way home. She sat outside the window of the little girl's bedroom, but her father had forbidden her from letting the kitten in.

[Sad kitten in the rain…]

By the time the girl could get out of bed, the kitten was still there. But the kitten was dead.

So who's the wrong one in this story? The kitten, for trying to reach out for help? The girl for not being able to protect the kitten? The bullies for beating her up and hurting the kitten? Or the father, for not letting the kitten in?

...that's a terrible story! :<

[aurathread]

Well yeah. A lot of stories don't have happy endings.

[celebrity_commentator]

But this one went out of its way to contrive a sad ending. That's fine for a soap opera, but don't bring poor kittens or bullied girls into it if you're just going to end things terribly!!

Erp. He's replying Anon I forgot to put that whoops.

[aurathread]

It's a true story, though. Or very close to one.

[celebrity_commentator]

Well then, the only reason to repeat it is to make sure little girls don't get beat up for no reason and small animals aren't left alone in the rain.

Obviously society is to blame for allowing kittens and little girls to be harmed at all! When Desco overthrows all the world's governments, she will make sure that the dumb bullies and the worthless father are sent to labor in the salt mines!

Don't worry, your kitten will be avenged!

[Okay he has to take a moment to laugh at that. Desco's enthusiasm about it is kind of heartwarming in a weird way.]

It's a story. I never said it was mine.

[tyrantball]

Desco thinks you are lying about that, but that's okay. You didn't imply Desco couldn't or shouldn't conquer the human world, so she doesn't mind!

Just remember, all you have to do is say the word and Desco will throw them in the salt mines!

[He is not going to even argue on the conquer the world thing. And not going to comment on the lie thing because la la la...]

I think the little girl would appreciate that.

[imthegoodguy]

Your story for being so messed up. Is there even a point?

[Anon]

[aurathread]

Yes.

THe point is that the world is selfish and cruel and people who think differently are just refusing to see it.

[imthegoodguy]

That's just one way to look at the world. It's much more complex than that.

There's a few good people, but other than them, I haven't really found a lot of good people.

[honordyne]

The bullies.

[Anon]

[aurathread]

Even though the girl should have known better than to try to take care of something she couldn't keep safe?

[honorlao]

At least she tried to do good.

5ever anon

[aurathread]

She did. She was still stupid to do it, since she should have known something like that would happen.

Destiny is to blame for setting up such a tragic turn of events. Life is unnecessarily cruel.

[Text] [Anon 4 ever]

[aurathread]

Right, because destiny is a thing that exists.

[terra_nullius]

Just as I'm sure this is a completely hypothetical and fictional story. Why else would you hide your face for its telling?

[aurathread]

Because I don't need people feeling sorry for me. It's a story. You can treat it like a story. But if people knew who told the story it would change their opinion of both the story and the person who told it.

Goddamnit Tsukasa-Anon.

The girl wasn't in the wrong for trying to help the kitten, and the kitten isn't in the wrong for wanting a friend. The bullies are in the wrong for being straight up assholes, and the Father is ultimately in the wrong for being a horrible parent and not letting her have her friend.

The entire story is sick, to be honest.

Anon forever. Also Bear and Subaru aren't here, so... ;;

[aurathread]

The girl should have known something like that would have happened, and the kitten shouldn't have stayed so long without doing anything.

Should I add a disclaimer at the bottom with sparkly text or something that says 'based on a true story'?

HASEO SHALL FILL IN FOR THE BOTH OF THEM! PARENTAL SUBSTITUTION JUTSU!

[not_that_scary]

Bullshit! Both the of the reasons you give for the Girl and the Kitten for being wrong are based solely on what the Bullies and Father did! You can't make them responsible for the actions of others! It doesn't work like that! [Owning up to your own issues is one thing, but thinking that the people who try and stomp on your spirit are because you were just trying to be nice? That's got self-worth issues written all over it, and he won't stand for it.]

[Anon + Based on a true story = Happened to Anon, right?] Listen, whoever you are. Those kinds of issues, that kind of 'Being wrong', isn't your fault. The actions of others are based solely in their decision-making, it's not your job to please them. You can't apologize for something when the thing you apologized for wasn't the result of your actions, but the failings of other people.

/hops in don't mind me-

[bladedskies]

Gonna have to agree with this white-haired idiot here.

[aka sup otherself?]

It isn't the girl's fault the bullies and her dad were assholes, it's their own damn fault, and I sincerely hope someone kicked their asses for it.

[Haseos are reel mad, bullies and mean parent.]
