{FAILED LOCK TO KANAYA} YOU KNOW THINGS ARE GETTING WEIRD WHEN *AZULA* IS MAKING FRIENDSHIP SPEECHES

First of all, I don't really have any major problems with you. I don't even dislike you, and I meant it when I said that you seemed like you were probably a good friend. But we need to clear something up.

I may not be a good friend or "moirail" or any of those things, but the idea that I'm attempting "pale infidelity" or trying to steal anyone away is completely untrue. You don't need to protect Aradia. If she has a problem with me, she'll tell me herself, and the fact that she hasn't means that she doesn't need to. I don't like Vriska because I want to be her moirail or take her away from anyone. I like her because I know what's going on with her, or at least I think I do. I know what it's like to do things that make people hate you, and to be dismissed no matter what you're saying. I know what it's like to grow up as a fighter, and even though I'm glad I was raised the way I was and I largely don't regret having my father or doing what I did, I know what it's like to not have a choice unless you want to be killed, punished, or banished. I know what it's like to have a parent who would destroy you if you failed them. And I know about a lot of other things that might not apply to her, but may in the future-- being made strong at the expense of everything else, not knowing how most people work, hurting people you like (even by accident or with good intentions), and sometimes even being really lonely.

I don't really care about most people, and I understand even less. But she's like me, and I care about her, and I'll help her out anytime she needs it. She's not my "moirail" and I'm not trying to make her be. She's like a younger sibling or a smaller version of me; I don't know.

Just quit worrying about it; everything's fine.

I can be charming if I wanna be.

And I was just being honest!

I'd like to see that.

You're ridiculous.

You're not someone I want to be charming toward.

You agree with me, don't you. She is pushy.

She's pushy, you're obnoxious.

[personal profile] pandorabox 2011-07-03 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
She didn't call me obnoxious.

[personal profile] pandorabox 2011-07-03 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. Your opinions don't count.

[personal profile] pandorabox 2011-07-03 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
The fact that she didn't call me obnoxious invalidates your original point, anyway.

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2011-07-03 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I think the fact that you're being obnoxious is pretty obvious.

[personal profile] pandorabox 2011-07-03 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Not everyone thinks I'm obnoxious.

I know; plenty of people have bad taste.

[personal profile] pandorabox 2011-07-03 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Like when it comes to bad Fire Nation fashion?

That's one example of your bad taste.
