I think that's the question we all came to at the end of the last trial. Who to vote for. Catra and Otome both. . . killed someone out of different theories of what would be for the good of all of us.
It seems like Otome's vision must have won out, because we killed Catra.
Sometimes you must split hairs, because we have choices to make about who to side with when both are a little wrong and both are a little right. I want to help whoever will cause the least harm and do the most to help. I certainly didn't want Catra dead for what she did; I understood it. But these are decisions that have to be made.
I was a bit surprised. I voted for Catra, but for reasons that were a bit selfish, because I wasn't sure what the right course was.
But it sounds from talking to you that your inclination - and the inclination of the dead it seems - is to protect Otome and the others for a little longer.
I don't think some people are going to accept that. They don't want to die, even if there's some kind of promise of being helped.
[Which is fair.]
I'm sure this place won't let us get away with coasting so easily. Letting them kill to help, making sure they don't kill too much. It wants a story, doesn't it?
That's boring. It's going to cause problems no matter what.

I don't like splitting the hairs about who was wrong or less wrong.
It helps. I'll take that much. Even if I don't enjoy the outcome, I have to face that sort of truth, too.

Were you surprised, when Catra won the vote?
no subject
Not... exactly. I think what Otome said swayed everyone's opinion, even though Catra may have been trying to help.
