{FORWARD-DATED} to after both her ongoing RLs

[bentflame]

I've been strangely social lately. I've had people over, I've gone to visit others, and I've apparently been invited to join in on some sort of movie night. Not only would this not have happened three years ago-- before I joined the community-- I don't think it would even have happened one year ago.

I haven't really changed that much, have I? I don't think I have.

I don't know. It's just weird to think about.

i kn0w h0w y0u feel
i think

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Oh?

[deathfangirl]

well i have g0ne thr0ugh a l0t 0f changes lately
im n0t sure h0w i feel ab0ut them m0st 0f the time

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

... That's right. And your changes have definitely been bigger than mine.

[deathfangirl]

well thats pr0bably true

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

And they probably made more sense.

[deathfangirl]

why w0uldnt y0ur changes make sense?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

They're just... strange.

[deathfangirl]

maybe its s0mething that y0u havent t0ld me ab0ut yet
but if its what im thinking 0f
i d0nt think its strange at all!

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

It's a few things, but mostly what I'm thinking about now is what I talked about in this entry. Being more readily social. To use the same example, when I first came here I would never have accepted an invitation to watch movies, either with one person or a group.

[deathfangirl]

well see
that makes perfect sense
ribbit!
y0u have pe0ple y0u want t0 spend time with n0w

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Even a long time ago, I liked spending time with my old friends Mai and Ty Lee. But it's different now, somehow.

[deathfangirl]

m0re
hm
general s0cialness?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I guess.

I get closer to people now than I did back then. I love Lisa and Lilith more than I ever loved them.

[deathfangirl]

i think being friends and l0ving pe0ple is a kind 0f skill
y0u kn0w like s0mething y0u can learn
maybe y0ure just getting better at it

[emberandash.livejournal.com]

... I guess. I'm not sure I like the idea of having too many friends.

[deathfangirl]

whats t00 many?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I used to think any amount was too many, and that it made me weak and vulnerable. Then I upped it to one. Then two.

I should probably just stop counting.

[deathfangirl]

i think thats a g00d idea
besides having friends d0esnt make y0u weak
i mean s0metimes it makes y0u d0 kind0f stupid things
um n0t y0u specifically but pe0ple
but y0u als0 have pe0ple wh0 can help y0u and make y0u happy
its nice

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I suppose I can sort of see it your way now. I know that I'd never give my new family up for anything.

[deathfangirl]

thats g00d
because i kn0w at least in my case
im n0t g0ing anywhere!

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... You're a good friend. I always wonder why people like you want to be friends with me.

[deathfangirl]

and by that y0u mean y0u d0nt think y0ure a g00d friend t00?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I'm a good sister and daughter.
