I've been advised against using my real name, so I suppose for now you can call me Jack. As a relatively recent addition to COST, I'm curious to learn more about my fellow recruits. What led to your decision to join up? What has your experience been like?

And maybe most pressing at this moment: do any of you have advice on how you dealt with your near-death experience and the recovery following it?

I hope you've had better success than I have.

Did no one witness what happened to you? The footage of my arena fight was apparently replayed for anyone to see.

[murdocksboy]

i haven't really talked to anyone about whether they actually saw it

eyewitness testimony can be notoriously unreliable anyway regardless of what people believe

[doublejumps]

But seeing it with your own eyes would be something else entirely.

[ Maybe Genji shouldn't be pushing this, but denial isn't a healthy way of coping either. ]

[murdocksboy]

thankfully that's not something i'll ever have to experience. i'm blind


[ Look at all this issue avoidance ]

[doublejumps]

[ Oh, well, that's a bit awkward. But Genji can't help but think that this man is blinding himself to the truth of what happened to them, as well. ]

Yet you went into the arena? [ Granted, so had Mamoru. ]
