Reply to comment by Crystal1501 in [WP] An immortal has been locked up in a secure government facility for destroying several buildings in a city after losing control of themselves. They could easily escape the flimsy defences, but they have no desire to... until they sense a great threat approaching earth. by Crystal1501

Yeah, and he was feeling guilty because he promised himself he wouldn't, I think. I'm not very good at this yet, I'm afraid. Thank you for reading though, and for the prompt!

Not very good... LIAR! You just created a nicely written piece of work which flows well and ends with a thought-provoking statement! You're VERY good!

Aww, thank you! Your words mean quite a lot to me.

Actually, you did great. I'm a pacifist, but wasn't always. Even if I had a good reason, it never feels good when I feel it's necessary to hurt someone. It's a failure that it got to that point in the first place. It's almost worse when a would-be victim thanks you; I don't want to be thanked for hurting someone. Even if I know, rationally, that it was to protect someone else.
