Yeah, Yuzu's almost more unusual in that regard than not. Every cast needs an "everyman", though, doesn't it.

Miss Aihara is doing quite impressively considering the circumstances, even so. [good job special talents: none, you can climb the mountain!]

[speakveryclearly]

I'm really proud of her ability to keep her head above water. She's an inspiration to us all in that respect.

[souredsweet]

[a nod of agreement.]

She is a testament to the goodness that human nature can be capable of, I believe, in contrast to what the trials may show.

[speakveryclearly]

Human nature... the other players talk about that sometimes. I'm not sure what it means. I think that's the idea, though.

[souredsweet]

Mm. It's a difficult thing to explain to someone who does not already know of it... Many believe that human nature is capable of unimaginable good and evil alike; what wins out often depends on the particular person or circumstance.

[speakveryclearly]

When you put it like that... it sounds kind of meaningless, doesn't it?

Not to belittle your explanation... I just mean that in such boundaries it's hard to rule any particular behavior as within or outside the realm of human nature, if that makes sense.

[souredsweet]

I do not find it belittling. [a small smile.] It is the wide range itself that some might consider human nature. Not every creature out there is capable of displaying boundless grace and thorough wickedness.

Still, that is only one definition. There are some who may say that it is human nature to be kind, or others who say that it is human nature to be cruel, self-serving and foolish. To me, it seems as if this is set up to determine which is the "true" human nature.
