Really, the most irritating thing isn't his words. The opinions of others mean absolutely nothing; I'm certainly never lying when I say that. He'd like to think that he can get under my skin, and I'll admit that I've slipped up a couple of times in that regard- but that has been taken care of; it won't happen again. No, the most irritating thing is that he's right.

I doubt that it's fear. It would be characteristic of her, I suppose, to fear me- but for some reason, she doesn't. I also doubt that she's just "waiting to see me fall"- that could easily be done from the sidelines. It's that third theory of his that I've considered before (I hope he doesn't think for one moment that he planted the idea in my head; that I allowed him to create such an... insecurity). That she really, truly hasn't realized yet that I am a monster. At some level, I'm sure she does (why else would she have said...)- but once she starts listening to those other friends of hers; really listening to them...

Ty Lee has always been easily convinced of things.

I am a monster. I always have been. I've never denied it. But I don't know why the idea of her recognizing it and calling me out on it is so... tsk.

It's an inevitability. I shouldn't bother deluding myself into thinking otherwise.

...

That smug detective really does need to be taught a lesson.

There's no problem. Everything is fine.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

No, is not.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You don't know.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Neither is you if you don't ask her why she refuse to talk about that.



(OOC. I think that we are having like 4 conversations about the same thing XD)

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I know why. She doesn't like to think.

OOC: XD I think you're right... and that RL, too, haha.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Uhm........Why if you ask her nicely? I mean, making her understand that you care for her opinion.

(Occ. he rock harder XD)

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

She won't discuss it, end of story. Stop talking about it.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

It's not the end of the story. The story have a problem now and not talking about it it's not going to help. You have issues, and she has them too.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

The only "issues" I have are extremely useful to me. I wouldn't want to be any other way.

She, on the other hand, is perfectly normal. Don't you dare try to insult her.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Such as?

I'm not, and there's no a good definition of 'normal'.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

It isn't obvious?

Hm.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be asking.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Think of every characteristic of mine that most people would deem despicable.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Your neck is not in that category, that's for sure.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to bother with this.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

You're too easy sometimes.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

"Easy"?

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Easy to annoy.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You say a lot of annoying things.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

A lot of people do, but you need to learn how to deal with them.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Don't patronize me. I know how to deal with them. For minor, childish offenses I usually just ignore the offender. For more severe accusations, however...

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

...You tsk'ed or glare ad them? because you do that a lot.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

A minor reprimand.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

I see.
