Mugi’s First Act of Cruelty

“Why did you do such a thing, Mugi-chan? Giving into your feelings over such a small matter. They would be better served elsewhere. The Force binds all things. The smallest push, the smallest touch, sends echoes throughout life. These acts of cruelty may have more severe repercussions than you know... or can see. Listen--feel the echo. Cruelty leads to suffering. And when one suffers, it is the way of life to spread suffering. The suffering within builds, until its sound is all one hears. When a kindness is offered, it is punished, and a greater darkness is served. From one act can come tremendous power, when the echo has traveled as far as it can. Send a great echo and power will come to you. The day shall come when you can test your strength, Mugi-chan--I promise you.“ Right, so this was a silly thought that crossed my mind. One of the quirks of Knights of the Old Republic II was that whenever you gained Light or Dark Side points, a little musical stinger played. The Dark Side one in particular felt pretty exaggerated. So it occurred to me that it’d be funny to use that stinger to accompany an infinitesimally petty wrongdoing. Like the sort of thing that would happen in a cute-girls-doing-cute-things anime. Like K-On. Like when Mugi took Mio’s strawberry, to everyone’s astonishment. (Which, since people have been asking, happened in season 2, episode 14: “Summer Days“) Thus this video was born. The two music pieces I used are from the KOTOR II soundtrack. They are: “Aboard the Ebon Hawk“ () “The Dark Side“ ()
