Given that my element is of darkness, I find the idea of illumination an overkill. Still, thank you for your kind words.

[priforprince]

Here's to an irreproachable Paradise.

[cloakedinruins]

I don't believe in a paradise.

[priforprince]

That's your loss.

[ All shall believe, once they see: Hibiki's sure of that. Provided they aren't completely hopeless, in which case, her time is wasted even thinking about them anyway. ]

[cloakedinruins]

A paradise for one may not be a paradise for another. Some enjoy a beautiful life of little complications, while others thrive on chaos and complexities. Placing them all into one form of a paradise shows a lack in understanding human diversity.

[priforprince]

"We're all friends, we're all idols", correct?

[ Look, it makes sense to her. She's been offered this argument before.

By an elementary schooler, except the child didn't put it as eloquently as this gentleman, so Hibiki's more inclined to continue conversing since he actually seems to know what words mean. ]

[cloakedinruins]

That would be a far too simplistic and erroneous way of saying it. 'Friends' would not include those who by their natures are not inclined to actually like a lot of people or who do not understand the meaning behind it, while 'idol', well, as a job description it barely compares to the situation we are in now.

No, just a single paradise may not work for all the people around you. Some people may accept it because they have taste aligned with you but others, not so much.

[ Well, he had been a teacher and a scholar before the change in his role, so he was inclined to actual words. ]

[priforprince]

[ Thank everything for that. ]

Your precision is refreshing.

[ And she can't bring herself to type her counterargument, because it involves verbally admitting said Actual Child who Could Not Words had a point, and that's a bridge she's not ready to cross.

To wit: she knows a multifaceted prism shines more brightly than one with a single side. That's why all shall be accounted for in her Paradise. She will just. Remain in one corner of it, herself. And watch. From afar. Where no idiots can harass her.

Yes. ]

Then, shall we agree to see whether your opinion holds when my dream comes true?

[cloakedinruins]

They do say that theorizing can only get us so far. So then we will see what occurs during the practical.

[priforprince]

I anticipate it.

[ The last word is the only kind of "last" thing Hibiki accepts having! ]
