Game 049 [Written/Voice]

[ Sometime in the early afternoon, the following question goes out over the journals. The camera is covered, and the handwriting is disguised. ]

Let's have a thought experiment. Say you were dying, and the only possible way to save yourself is to get help from someone very close to you. However, you don't know for sure that this help will indeed save you, and whether or not it does, there's a chance that it will damage the one helping you. Trying to help you might even kill them.

Do you ask for their help anyway? Would you accept their help if they offered it?

[ Later on in the evening, Joshua makes a separate post from the previous, this one voiced and not anonymous. ]

[ Filtered to Neku, 100% ]

Hey Neku, are you busy tomorrow?

In that case, does me asking for help even matter? If they're willing to risk saving me in the first place, then there's no need to ask them, right?
penetrated: (i don't care)

If I can't do anything to save myself, do I even have the power to stop them?
penetrated: (neither is this)

Then... I wouldn't like it, and I guess I'd try to stop them?
penetrated: (if i ever see)

[personal profile] penetrated 2012-01-26 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
That might be what they want, but it's not like that's what I want, right?
penetrated: (enough to fear)

I'm not sure... in the end, it would just come down to a conflict of interests between us. I don't think I'd change my mind either.
penetrated: (and my whole body too)

If they're someone I care about, then yes. Definitely.

...

I think I'd still try to help them. In both scenarios, I'd try to avoid someone I care about being hurt.
penetrated: (i'm turning back)

I'm not sure. I know being too stubborn is one of my bad points, so... I don't think I would?
penetrated: (the affliction of the feeling)

'Both sides'? ... Doesn't that make it a question of whether I could stop myself?
penetrated: (much less colourful)

[written]

[personal profile] penetrated 2012-02-03 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, if it's two of me then... isn't the best option to do nothing? If 'I' don't try to save myself and don't call out, then one of 'me' has a 100% chance of survival, right?

... Sorry, I just brought some really silly logic into an ethics question.

... Probably, I'd be saved.

That's... one way you could interpret it?
penetrated: (much less colourful)

I'd probably say something more positive-sounding like 'it's more important that someone is helped'?
