(fallen london stamps by in-system relationships ask game/questionnaire, question 5
Are there any people who absolutely don't get along? Feel free to share why!
Not anymore! Obviously, we still have our interpersonal issues, but not to that degree.
I'm not going to expound on the hatchets we've buried (if anyone was going to, it should be the people who they belonged to) but pretty much all of us agree that our old grudges were due to 1) being poorly socialized thanks to our shitty family, and 2) being trapped in an ongoing Bad Situation for the majority of our life, from which we had no escape, little support, and no great choices when it came to coping. And once we got out of that situation, it was just... what was the point of fighting now? Everyone involved had just been doing their best to stay alive.
There are a bunch of ways that we differ, but one similarity we all have is that we're fairly pragmatic people. We saw a chance for us to have something better, and we took it. It didn't mean all of our bad feelings cleared up overnight, but it was like... it turns out that if we're given a chance to remove the knives embedded in us, and we're given a place to rest and recover at our own pace, we heal very readily.
And I think it helped that we made this agreement early on: no one would be obligated to like anyone else. The only things we asked was that folks made an effort to be civil, to not inflict harm on each other, and to not get in the way of people doing things that needed doing. (So, basically: Don't Make Us Turn This Car Around.) We did come around to liking each other, but that was an effect of working together, not the cause.
