#'aww youre going to die and you cant prevent it' NEITHER CAN YOU!! what now

[valtsv]

question because i think it’d be interesting to hear your thoughts: let’s say in theory you go to an oracle who gives you a prophecy that states how and when you will die. would you rather:

spend the rest of your life attempting to change your fate, only to die in the exact manner that was foretold due to your own actions (pros: you have hope that you can avoid your own death up until the end, cons: you waste away your life fighting something that cannot be changed instead of enjoying the time you have left)

lock yourself away from the world and hide from anything that could harm you (pros: you manage to avert the prophecy, cons: at this point, your life can hardly be considered one worth living anyway)

accept your fate, and just try to live your life to the fullest before you die (pros: you get to live peacefully, with no struggle or despair before the end, cons: what if you could have changed things, had you just tried?)

some secret fourth option

i would make the oracle fall in love with me just to psychologically torture them back
