It always helps to get perspectives.

It does indeed, but most seem to value some perspectives over others.

[fallenpips.livejournal.com]

Oh, of course I do. But I'd like to gather all the perspectives first before I decide the value of an indivdual one.

(ooc: finally saw that episode of Doctor Who. Isaac is now 10 times creepier to me.)

[brightbutler.livejournal.com]

And how do you decide which ones are worth more?

((OOC: Harry Lloyd (the actor) did a great job, no?))

[fallenpips.livejournal.com]

Based on relationships and trust, mostly--who do I know will give a perspective that's valid?

[seatofemotion.livejournal.com]

Some people'd say it's my only job, to provide that.

[fallenpips.livejournal.com]

One of the most important jobs, but I'd say, by no means, the only. You also provide a safe place to talk, cry, express yourself.

[Not that he would notice. Plenty of people don't care to visit him, or otherwise prefer his opposite number in the Spades.] I try t'be what people ask of me, when I can. Helps in the long run.

[She raises an eyebrow.] I've certainly always thought so.

[fallenpips.livejournal.com]

So, what's your perspective on the Deck as a whole?

[headfollowheart.livejournal.com]

[...Really. This is how we strike up conversations these days.]

As a whole? It's an interesting system. Less effective in some places than others, I think. But interesting all the same.

Perspectives on anything in particular, or just perspectives?

[fallenpips.livejournal.com]

Perspectives on the Deck today. [She grins, tousling his hair.] I want to talk to you, sometime. Like, alone.

[He puts up with those gestures for appearances, but he'll never get used to them.] ...Shouldn't be too difficult to arrange. Something on your mind?
