[ wry, ]

You can at least have the decency to say, "That sounds stupid, Percy," to my face, instead of thinking it real loud.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

-?

That's not what I was thinking.

Re: day 301

[audacity]

Your face did the thing some people's do when they're trying to be polite but they're thinking, wow, okay, lame.

[Getting up to take his now empty plate to the sink to wash it.]

I was thinking it would be nice if you could make it back to your own world. That's all.

There's a lot of people who care about you, after all.

[ gets up after a moment to take his over too ]

It's a nice thought, but that ship's probably already sailed. Uh, no pun intended. There'll just be another world-ending war or reality-altering quest because Reasons.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

Then why go back?

Re: day 301

[audacity]

I mean, the boat's not giving me tons of reasons to hope being somewhere else would change anything. Besides, my mom's back home. My stepdad, my dad, my girlfriend, my best friend, my city. Camp. The places that I love, everything I need to protect. I wanna live for all that stuff, obviously, but it's worthwhile dying for too, if I gotta.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

So basically what I said to begin with.

Re: day 301

[audacity]

Yeah, except for the thing where I don't think it would be on you, if I don't.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

-Huh?

[With how confused he looks he apparently wasn't thinking anything along those lines.]

Re: day 301

[audacity]

[ with the tone of one who figured snow was either there already, or else going to get there sooner or later, ]

Juuuust something to keep in mind.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

I'd never prevent you from returning.

Re: day 301

[audacity]

Glad we're in agreement.

[ wry. then, after a beat, ]

Look, just ignore me if I'm wrong. But you seem like the kinda guy who'd maybe start thinking of it that way if other-me decides to, like, not go home or whatever. Just wanted to make sure you know I'm not gonna think of it that way if he does.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

[Shrugging.]

Whatever choice you make - either of you, or both - it's up to you.

Re: day 301

[audacity]

Glad we really are in agreement, in that case.

[ drums his fingers for a moment, then, ]

Prob should get back to it with the [ ugh ] reading, but...you got anything you wanna ask me before that? Dunno how long I'll be hanging around and all.

Re: day 301

[bondsofsuffering]

Hopefully it isn't too awful.

Re: day 301

[ thumbsup!

and gets back to it ]
