A Point in Chaos
Quod erat demonstrandum(QED) --
which has been shown
(Point Proven)
Watanuki is always getting into arguments (a good majority of them are one-sided but they are arguments nonetheless.) Watanuki feels as though he must prove a point in order to be sure of his existence. As he is slowly pulled into the world of the fantastically magical and possibly clinically insane he believes he must cement himself in all that is "real." His hopes, his dreams and his opinions must all be stated boldly. His own justice must be doled out accordingly with impressive dramatics. This is what he believes as he finds himself pushed into the contradiction that his life is becoming. Slowly, he finds his opinions wavering, his hopes changing, his dreams expanded and he doesn't have to tell them because they already know. His justice has served him in ways he never considered, that silent justice he never knew he had. And suddenly he finds that he doesn't mind so much, those things he thought he hated. Things do change.
Entropy--
A doctrine of inevitable social decline and degeneration
A measure of the disorder or randomness in a closed system.
(Theory of chaos)
Watanuki knows what entropy is. But even if he acknowledged it's existence, that doesn't mean he has to like it. Watanuki refuses to be anything but well-mannered and polite. Watanuki refutes clutter and disdains destruction. He thinks that such things are simply unnatural, no matter what any scientist says. Then again it is in his nature to simply deny anything he dislikes. So he uses polite language in a world of rudeness, he creates organization in a sea of chaos, simply because he believes it is right to do so. But even if Watanuki rejects the existence of Entropy, it hardly means Entropy will be kind enough to do likewise.
Were Entropy a storm and life it's avenue, then Watanuki would be the center, the opposite, the focus, the balance. Those around him are pulled in, harbored safely in the eye of the storm. At least its how they see it.
