    Summary

    I'd like to think that my intentions were noble. That my actions were justified somehow. That my choices, on a cosmic scale, can be weighed as a net benefit rather than a negative.

    Hubris.

    Or... maybe it's necessity. We tend, as a whole, to paint ourselves as the victor in our personal histories...

    Perhaps I grew to used to being the hero.

    Perhaps I should have stopped to consider that I might become the villain in someone else's story.

    Summary

    Honestly? None of them take mystic as seriously as they should. Sure they respect it and are fascinated by it (excluding Donnie), but none of them really considered the dangers that it may hold for the four of them.
    A fight with a mystic user is going to change that forever.
