Philosophical story, who is free?

They're both free, unless you want to argue that their decisions were consequence based (along with the many natural drives) and therefore determined; they each made a separate choice. However, in each scenario, their physical expressions of that conscious freedom is limited by the forces of nature, but that hindrance is a necessary constant. For example, my freedom (if you want to call it that) is always obstructed when I desire to fly but cannot by the physics binding this universe. I'd say their choices were both autonomous and thenceforth "free."
