It really isn't worth trying to avoid these influxes, and I don't feel like wasting the effort.

Who's come by this time?

I'm not sure if the lack of confusion this time is a good thing or a bad thing.

Mrs. Kirk, it's nice to see you again. I hope you've been well since last time?

[mamawallbreaker.livejournal.com]

I have. And you, Dr. Cameron? I see you've dyed your hair. Felt like a change?

[as_damaged]

It went back during a curse, and I figured I may as well leave it that way. I'm doing well enough, thank you.

[mamawallbreaker.livejournal.com]

Your hair color changed during a curse? That's odd. Well, I think you look just as beautiful as a brunette.

[as_damaged]

Stranger things have happened, I suppose. It was a nice change while it lasted, though.

[There's some clicking and static down the line, someone's forgotten how to work these things. After all that, the reply is faint.]

Broad statement.

[Long, long, very very long pause. o hai.]

How so?

You don't know yet what you could have been avoiding.

Then I'd be left wondering, and left to wonder I usually assume the worst anyway. I don't think it's any better.

voice ][

[cushylife.livejournal.com]

Right, because when you know the worst you handle it so well.

voice ][

[as_damaged]

Damned if I do, and if I don't.

[cushylife.livejournal.com]

Sounds familiar.

[as_damaged]

You do remember that I have no idea why you're angry at me.

I'm not. [The reply is quick but then he pauses like he's trying to get his thoughts in some kind of order.] I'm not... angry at you.

voice ][

[cushylife.livejournal.com]

This was a mistake.

Maybe it was.

voice ][

[as_damaged]

But I don't think it would have been any better if you hadn't come.

[cushylife.livejournal.com]

You 'don't think'. You're interested. Maybe there's finally something for you to fix.

voice ][ 1/hissyfit

[as_damaged]

Why wouldn't I be interested? Obviously this concerns me.

voice ][

[as_damaged]

It has nothing to do with fixing anything.

voice ][

[as_damaged]

Now you're just lashing out, pushing me away by dragging up old insults? And you say you're not angry.

voice ][ done, she is not in great spirits sob

[as_damaged]

Why did you come? Do you even know what you want?

Come on, of course it has to do with fixing things. It's not a bad quality, it's just who you are. You're always going to care the most about the people you think you can help.

Except when it's too close. I might have done the worst thing anyone can do, and you want to sweep it under the carpet. Act like it's not there.
