"Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable."
"Do you truly see yourself in such a way? Truly a pitiful sinner- one of the two greatest sins; believe yourself faultless or believing yourself nothing but fault."
"If you want any hope of salvation, you must be accustomed to change. You wish to know my verdict? A verdict is something only to be dictated upon the end, until then it is only righteous to for me to offer guidance. Whether you're right or wrong at present is entirely irrelevant- a conviction now would only lead to self-assurance that you need not grow."
"Instead, ask yourself- what is the way I can change now? What are the good deeds I can do today? Even if it's but a mere speck, even if it's simply keeping yourself alive- we are more than the sum of our actions and thoughts- but it is actions that sins and virtues are established. Settle your head, steady your hands- and do your best for the coming time."
#eiki touhou#eiki#shikieiki touhou#touhoutivations#shikieiki#mod yuyu#i've never written eiki before and i know she tends to be a tad misinterpretated- i hope i did a good job of someone that is resolute#and patient in their sense of judgement. preachy but someone who genuinely wants to see the best in the world#i sometimes think that as much as i hate it sometimes self-flaggelation is a way for your brain to trap yourself into improving#i have an odd habit of fretting over whether i'm a good person and all that- so i don't want eiki to come across as 'your anxiety makes you#selfish actually' and moreso 'this judgement is unhelpful and shuts away a chance for you to be good both emotionally and to others'
