It’s possible, I suppose, when we were very young. I don’t remember.

Mmmm.

In any case you should get used to it.

Re: 2 of 2

That sounds like a terrible idea. An invitation to some kind of ambush.

Dear brother, always so suspicious.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Also suspicious: you haven’t mocked me yet. Are you feeling well?

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ormbreaker]

Would you like me to?

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Not especially. It’s just something I’m used to, as you seem to enjoy it.

I'm trying to cut down on my gentle ribbing.

This from the man whose near-instant response to learning about Valkyrie’s and my involvement in the first place was ‘which one of you is the horse? is it both?’ That’s unsettling.

What can I say? People change.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Clearly. Ah well.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ormbreaker]

You sound disappointed.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Oddly, I am a bit. I’m not fond of being mocked, mind you, at least not when the topic is already fraught. But on the other hand, I’m used to your aggravating brand of enthusiasm. ‘No reaction’ is unsettling, in that light.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ormbreaker]

I had faith everything would work out between you two.

That's why I'm not surprised.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Yes, well, when it falls apart you’ll have to deal with that. I intend to put that off as long as possible, but I am still me.

I don't think that's going to happen.

You've changed since coming here.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Much to my frustration at times. It's going to be difficult re-adapting when I go back.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ormbreaker]

Why not let change be change?

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Because this might surprise you, brother, but I don’t actually enjoy grief-fueled homicidal insanity. I prefer rational murder.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ormbreaker]

This isn't about death, it's about life.

Re: 2 of 2

[st_ratagem]

Hence my need to re-adapt when I leave here, so I can live with something resembling stability of mind and other people can just live.

I did say it’s only frustrating at times. Take that as a win.

Win taken. :)

I do want you to be happy when you return, even if you stubbornly refuse the path to choose it.
