This is a question. Duh. JUST FOR FUN. And forcing you to think a little. So, any way. In Tales of the Abyss, the story revolves around an ancient prophecy called the Score, which details the entire history of the world from start, to finish. People tend to rely on the score, even using it to decide what they want to have for dinner at times. It is a major part of society. Now, lets say that our world had a prophecy similar to the Score. Would you follow it, or would you not? Think about it; the score gives you an entire timeline of what you should do with your life. With it, you could live free of the stresses of choices and decisions. It could give you a easy, prosperous life.

does the score guarantee that all events in it will take place, or is it a simple guideline? if it's the former, does that mean that you have no choice in what direction your life is going to head and that all your actions will inevitably lead to the same path the score describes? do all lives have generally "happy" stories and endings if they are lived according to the score, or are some people doomed to have purely unhappy lives? this kind of thing really isn't touched upon that much in games/stories that detail some kind of prophecy hoo hah which is kind of disappointing

Tales of the Abyss has a generally good explanation for the Score.

Wanna know the best way that you can show you don't care? By not posting.

Am I being an ass again? Dammit. *Smacks myself on the head repeatedly with a lamp* Bad Mega! Bad Mega! Sorry, rock. I stood up last night til one o'clock watching Earth to Echo. So I'm tired and grumpy. Also, my friends and I invented a new word. Blorange- To die, and walk it off. Or, it could also mean a cat that has fit itself into a fishbowl perfectly. Yeah, totally random, but that's what I spent my night doing. It was fun. But now I'm tired and grumpy. And sore. Did I mention that I did a walk for the cure thing? So I'm really tired out now. Although, TBH, me and rock both are butts to each other.
