[ Kasumi's preferred method of dealing with the network is much like her preferred approach to life in general: lurk in the shadows, occasionally emerge to poke things just to see if they're entertaining. But every now and then, she has something she actually wants to say. This is one of those times.
Everyone's been buzzing about all these puzzles and riddles that have been showing up, and she's been keeping an eye on it more or less, though she can't say she's particularly engaged by it. That shows in her voice when she starts to speak. ]
Since we all seem to be enjoying thought puzzles so much these days, here's one to try out: What would you do if you found out that nothing you did had any real life consequences? Not for you or for anyone else. Not now or in the future.
Would you still follow the "rules" or would you toss them out and have a little fun?

no subject
Take Moses- guy comes down off a freakin' mountain with some stone tablets and even now, people are still following those rules, because some touched bearded guy said God gave them to him. It's got some fair points. I'm not into murdering people- consequences or no, that's where I draw the line- but why all this judgment about coveting and... what if your parents don't deserve to be honored?
no subject
But here's the thing, even if it was one guy who went up the mountain and came down with a bunch of rules, it wouldn't have worked if everyone around him hadn't bought into them. Rules aren't worth much if you don't have the resources to enforce them somehow.
no subject
[He lets that sit for a minute.] So what would you do in that situation? No rules, no consequences...
