Some of them were high and mighty. Others have been less-studied. Cynicism in particular is of interest to me. I wasn't lucky enough to meet Diogenes, but he probably wouldn't have liked me anyway.
It would be rather egotistical for me to claim I wanted to do such things.
No, I'm only fascinated with the study and those that chose to spend their lives studying human reason, logic and morality.
Cynicism is an interesting one - the joys of living a simple life, virtuous life. I've studied some and naturally have moved on to Stoicism from it. Hegel has been of particular interest to me in recent days - up until our arrival to this world, I had been reading his work. I don't prescribe to any particular viewpoint myself though.
You’re a teenager, egotism is usually expected to some degree.
But they definitely were interesting people. Often misquoted, but it’s fascinating to watch the effect they had on history.
I also don’t prescribe to any particular viewpoint like that either. I suppose some might call me a dystheist or misotheist, but unlike most of them I have proof of my reasoning. In terms of philosophy though… I quite like Sartre, though the man definitely needed an editor.
[This is exciting. Rarely does anyone match his own knowledge, let alone exceeds it. Akechi's heard the name, but knows little about the philosopher himself.
But his stomach churns, chest aches. He can hear Maruki being an annoying presence at his door.]
When this situation blows over, let's talk more about it in person. I'm intrigued about your viewpoints and want to hear all you have to say on the matter.

Of course, I still follow and abide by the rules and laws society has deemed a requirement. However, my justice is its own path.
As for traveling-
Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. My job requires me to stay in Tokyo at all times - even school trips are off limits for the time being.
Perhaps in the future that door will open to me.

[There's no hesitation. No pause. No thought given because it's a question he's mulled over before.]
Among many places, of course. If I were given only one opportunity to travel - that would be my first choice.
As of this moment, at least.

Is it the history, the culture, or some secret third thing?
[Give him information, Akechi.]

I've had a fascination with the study of philosophy for some time. That is, essentially, the working area of many prominent figures in it.
To stand where they did - I can think of nothing better.

We'll talk soon.

Don't die.
