Prompt 2: "dilemma"


Sasori often found himself drawn to dark corners. He liked to muse there, to be left to himself. Often, in spite of himself, he contemplated himself and his comrades - about life and death and age and time and wood polish.

He figured (though he wasn't one to simply 'figure') that this place where he was now was somewhat satisfactory. He had lodgings (though he didn't exactly need them), funds to keep himself in shape (literally), and plenty of opportunity to add to his beloved collection. More than once, he deliberated on taking a bold step and… "solidifying" an associate or two.

The question was this - go ahead with the plan and risk the loss of the benefits he had here, or stay safely within the confines of a dull existence?

Decisions, decisions.
