[ Plops her forehead back down on his shoulder. Deep breath in ...

Slow breath out. Calms the angry buzzy bristly feelings as best she can. ]

Sorry for startling you. I didn't realise I was doing it.

[ Hhhhhhhhh. Huff. Sits back again slowly. ]

We both love Epsilon. The thought of someone hurting him again is -

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

You want to protect him.

[He squeezes her.]

Of course you're angry.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

Of course I am. But.

[ gives her wings a sharp flick of a flap ]

Gotta keep a cool head. Best I can. Best foot forward.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

[He nods.]

We'll see what we can do to help before we leave.

Plant?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

Plant.

[ On the usual three-count. ]

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[castaside]

You touch the dead plant, and pieces of it flake and crumble.

You feel yourself getting lost in someone else. That pull of the one you love which inspires you, but also tempts you to bury parts of yourself you think they would have distaste or disgust for. You wonder if this makes you a liar, or devoted, or a combination.

They're worth it, of course they are, but you find yourself burying more and inspired less as time goes on.

Is wanting to be better for someone else supposed to make you feel this neglected? This afraid? This lonely?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

....

Oh.

Hm.

[On one hand, hiding parts of yourself bad.]

[On the other hand, he may have made a nuke by now if he didn't have morality brothers.]

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

Ah.





Mm. Hm.

[ L.

Looks. Looks at Donnie. ]

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

I think this is....

What is called a slippery slope?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

Mmhm. Yup. Yeah.

[ Nnnod.

Nod, nod. ]

Did it... hit you in the outsourced morality?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

....yes.

Did it hit you in the insecurity?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

The, um.

Insecurity, identity, and the morals.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

This room is terrible for us.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

I came out here to have a good time and I'm honestly feeling so attacked right now-?

[ WHEN IN DOUBT ]

[ M ... MEME ... ? ]

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

[He snorts.]

Real rude of Macdad.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

[ we interrupt these feelings for a super important segue ]

Papaque?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

Macdaddy is just actual slang.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

It is? For what?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

[There is a pause.]

Its usually used by rappers.

Soooo.....either womanizers or pimps.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

And a pimp is-?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

Essentially the guy in charge of a bunch of prostitutes.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

[ this is the face of an oblivious kid who has never thought about such a thing once in her life ]

Ohhhhhhhhhh. Huh. S'been a while since I had a martini moment.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

[He's from New York and sticks to alleys a lot. He's absolutely seen prostitutes.]

A martini moment?

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[bluediligence]

Uh huh. Kaito and I went on an undercover mission together to an 18+ pool bar run by yakuza to win back Kaito's friend's jewel-encrusted pool cue.

My, ah, my dad was there 'cuz they were about to bust the yakuza for weapons dealing, not that I knew that at the time, sssooooo I distracted him with sake to give Kaito time to do his thing.

And he bought me martinis, which I thought were juice.

Re: Level S (sub 1) - East Door cw: immolation

[othellovonryan]

I would think a jewel encrusted pool cue would make for a poor pool cue.

....how...

How did your dad not recognize you?
