    To kill or be killed? The path is crimson. Will you be dyed by it or will you be the one to dye?

    Any scenario procured by your imagined mind. Fully immerse in it. Recall anything your likes. Your dislikes. Recall happiness. Recall sadness. Remember who you are and what you did from birth up to this moment of truth.

    Look before you and in seconds you will die. The person in front of you desires your death. Desires to end your life. You will die and you will end up forgotten by those dearest to you. You will die and you will end up forgetting those who earn your ire.

    Your love and your hate will disappear. Your memories an illusion to time. Your corpse a litter by the road. Your goals will become dreams and soon will you. Your body tenses. Knowledge binds you not to kill. Experience tells otherwise. Hesitation leads to your death.

    The end of you. Not just you but all of you. The you in your dearly beloved. The you in your friends. Your acquaintances. Family. Colleagues. Rivals. You'll lose them all. The home you have or wanted. The life you desired to accomplish or did so already. All of these will perish with you.

    Someone will take your place or maybe not. Doesn't matter, because you will die right there and now. Forget about miracles. Forget about fate. Decide it here and now. Will you kill or be killed?

    It's self defense, nobody's going to question it. Not you. Not heaven nor hell. Survival for the fittest. Strength will not betray you, friend. Grip it strong. Reel it hard. Hold. Steady. And aim forward, friend.

    That's right, friend. It's me, your friend; a very old, old friend. Death. Remember Death. Remember you can and will die. Remember me. I don't have all day or night, friend. Pick your Death. Will you welcome me now or have someone else do the favors? I have all the time in the world, friend. The clock is ticking but your heart won't be soon. Remember the path, friend.

    Life is crimson. Modor... lacrimosa... Aba... nil...

    You trying to write a novel? OwO Also to be grammatically correct you should change your title to either What's Scarier? Or What's more Scary?

    My response to threats has always been to eliminate them. So if someone’s trying to kill me, I’d much rather kill them first. No kidding.

    As for my friends, they’re all sweeter than honey.

    Sounds like I'd finally have justification to go for the kill. Canadian law on what constitutes justified self defense is rather limiting, so knowing I'd get away without charges would definitely be a good position for me.

    It depends on your mentality. But for me, it's to be killed. You can only try this once and won't be able to get used to it. Even the most psychopathic person would feel like there's a hole in them when they are about to die.

    I am a selfish a**hole (look NUF! I self censored! Now give me credits.) Or that I am a sane person who just wants to live, if the mfer wants to kill me and the only way I can live is to kill him, too bad.

    A few years in therapy and some monthly pension for my mental health and I am good to go.

    The scarriest thing is not meeting our supreme cat master's standards.

    Both are scary, the difference is that once you died (or be killed) you won't feel a thing afterward, but once you killed someone, you have to live with that for the rest of your life.

    As for friends... how about sibling?

    Die now or die then, either ways we still die. Everyone you see has either died or will die, it's nothing new. We will inevitably be forgotten no matter what, it's just matter of when.

    Also, my answer will depend on why I'm about to be killed or how I'm gonna get killed.
    The law doesn't work that way.

    None of them do. You think the law is working but it's not. The law forbids things but people commit things the law forbids. The law works only when there is punishment met and reward given. Anything else is just words etched to some paper. If you are punished, then the law works for you. If you aren't, then the law isn't working for you. It's that simple.
    I shall applaud you for such fine memery; thus, I shall grant you such a meme as this. Behold, my random encountered meme for a fine night like *Kotomine's English dubbed* Fate/stay night~

    I couldn't find the Lord El Melloi meme about decapitation in context with your meme, so I had to settle for this.

    The law doesn't listen to sophism and mental or philosophical gymnastics. There are established dos and don'ts.

    Made by humans for humans. I'm not saying the law is useless, but it's definitely not effective by case to case.
    If the law were that effective, then crime wouldn't still be a large social issue in society, yeah?

    The law works only punishment is met and reward given. The law works if karma works. The law is law in action and not in words alone. The law is lawfully a law if the law is followed and upheld by the lawful lawmakers of the law.
