My ability to go back has no relation to whether I regret the wish I made. I will never regret it, myself.
[ everything she did, she did for Madoka. that's enough to make it all worth it, even if ultimately... ]
I asked simply because I've seen the outcome of hastily made, poorly thought out, or essentially coerced wishes far too many times. They regret paying the price they did. They resent the people they made their wishes for. They become self-destructive, guilty, blaming themselves for not making the wish that could have saved their loved ones alongside themselves, if only they'd had the forethought to think of it while they themselves were dying.
It is a familiar pattern, wishes turning to poison once made— even if you assume the best of intentions from all involved.
[ but if he says he can't afford to regret— good for him. neither can she. ]
3/3
