[k]

＠Chiron
Good question. Good and evil are notoriously difficult to define, and can rarely be applied in blanket fashion.
[k]

[charaFace E 4]

＠Chiron
Still, that being said...there are times when we are confronted with clear and undeniable evil.
[k]

＠Chiron
It would be one thing if such evil were relegated to the subconscious mind...
[k]

[charaFace E 0]

＠Chiron
...but in his case, he is unmistakably both aware of, and acting upon it.
[k]

＠Chiron
He is in many ways much the same as young people who purposely act wicked, or as those who deal in violence for a living and label themselves wicked...
[k]

＠Chiron
...but his wickedness is on[sr]a completely different scale.
[k]

＠Chiron
It is also not uncommon for evil people to go around pretending to be good or just.
[k]

＠Chiron
Indeed, they often have to in order to survive, for society is not kind to individuals who knowingly practice evil.

Fabulous. Do you see what you've done? I'm so worked up, I've gone and started talking about myself in the third person.

[charaFace G 0]

＠Moriarty
In spite of this, I am most decidedly evil,[sr]and so refer to myself accordingly.
[k]

＠Moriarty
So tell me, in your opinion...
[k]

＠Moriarty
...which do you think I am?
[k]

？1：Is this a trick question? Evil, of course.

[charaFace G 2]

＠Moriarty
You didn't even think about it for two seconds!

Though of course, that's not to say you're wrong.[sr]James Moriarty is indeed as evil as they come.

＠Moriarty
I am, without a doubt, an evil man. That is a fact,[sr]and it is one that I am fully aware of.
[k]

＠Moriarty
However, let me ask you this: Do questions of good and evil truly matter when humanity is facing an existential crisis?
[k]

[charaFace G 1]

＠Moriarty
...No, wait, that came out poorly.[sr]Let me rephrase it.
[k]

＠Moriarty
It is precisely when humanity is in peril[sr]that malice becomes necessary, my dear Master.
[k]

[charaFace G 0]

＠Moriarty
Indeed, I'm certain you've[sr]already seen as much yourself.
[k]

＠Moriarty
Everyone has malice in them, even heroes can betray their cause, and the line between good and evil remains hazy and ill-defined.
[k]

＠Moriarty
Our history[line 2]Proper Human History, as we define it now[line 2]may as well be hell itself.
[k]

＠Moriarty
Even so, you and your compatriots have been making every effort to bring it back, believing that for all its evils, it is still the greatest good to which we can aspire.
[k]

＠Moriarty
Right and wrong are therefore of no concern to us. We won't win because we are fighting for what's right.
[k]

＠Moriarty
Rather, it is only once we have won that we must strive to be right.
[k]

？1：So that's why we have to fight?
？！

[charaFace G 1]

＠Moriarty
Exactly.
[k]

＠Moriarty
...Still, there's no need to worry. We are all here precisely to ensure you emerge victorious.
[k]

＠Moriarty
Even if that means we have to pull out every evil trick in the book.
