Questions [closed @ DIO]
He was unsure what brought him here. Obviously Dio was not here to confess, he felt that there was no reason to. He had no regrets, none at all. Curiosity is what drove him here. Dioās gaze fell on the stained glass windows, the statues of the saints that lined some open crevices by said windows. Of course, the main showcase was the standard cross and crucification scene behind the tabernacle. It was quite a sight. The pews lined up in a standard fashion, lined to perfection. It was a rather beautiful sight, why hadnāt he been to a church more often? Well, he had but it did not interest him for too long nor did he enjoy the audience around him.
ā Dio found himself in one of those confessional booths. He was sure as soon as he stepped foot in a holy place heād probably burst into flames, quite literally. But that did not happen which was slightly disappointing. Did he want to burst into flames? Not really. He genuinely wanted to know the power of god. Unfortunately that would come at another time just not now. In this place the children of god were an odd bunch. They were often referred to as āflocksā because their lord was their shepherd. Sheep were a little dull anyways. What a childish thought, he was never thinking of it that way again.
A maleās voice spoke through the screen that separated them, as if he were having some existential crisis. Dio was not here for a confession. Perhaps he could listen and give his two cents to the man on the other side. āIām not here to confess. You seem to have a lot on your chest. Maybe youāre the one who needs a confession?ā He tried to stifle a laugh; it was ironic in several ways. However, he had time to kill. It seemed like his conversational partner had a good head on his shoulders.
Despite the other manās wordiness he was intrigued, letās play a little more into this. Dio chimed a response to his mystery priest.
āYou started a thought. You should finish it. Also, donāt apologize. Iām sure youāve heard enough for today.ā
For a moment surprise stills any words that Pucci would deliver. He never expected them to listen such sudden, whimsical words. Eyes turn to the direction of the voice slightly familiar... He can't trace track it to anyone specific just yet but it seems to hold a calming effect.
Finally a chuckle escaped Pucci. It seems that it was a good choice to speak out for once. Perhaps by a chance or maybe....
"Hm. I suppose. People tell me I think too I think too much or give me boring answers..."
"...well, I'd rather do that than not think at all like many seem to do."
For now he would refrain from taking a better look at his guest and simply concentrate on the thoughts quietly spinning inside his head. He nods to the other's words before realizing the other can't see him doing that.Ā
"Pardon me, I wouldn't have expected you to listen but... fair enough" he admitted, Ā "although, I'm afraid I have less answers than questions... but very well...Ā Where was I..."
He pauses to gather his thoughts better to be able to present them in clearer manner.Ā
"....ah yes a purpose. Take any event in a persons life - what kind of purpose does any kind of injustice serve? A punishment? Or a test from God...?" he slowly starts to unravel thoughts, "I've been thinking if they are there to lead us somehow. Then perhaps... If it's a punishment it should be taken as a push to the right direction."
"And well, that if that is a push to some direction. Then that direction should be somehow predetermined shouldn't it...? But then what is a right direction...?"
He pauses again. It'd be calming - to have a destination of some kind. There would be a meaning to mistakes he might make.. A pleasant thought somehow... Although it would be even more pleasant to know about it.
He falls to silence again for a while.
"....it's still an incomplete thought, I'm afraid", he finally says aloud, "I apologize, somehow I haven't been able to come to a clear conclusion. More generally speaking... I feel this world lacks something. I'm only a little disappointed I suppose."Ā
