... I think so.

[ which is maybe a phrase to use about a relationship he is in but. he figures nico will get how commitment is weird when your memories are a mess and you are starting to doubt your own life ]
resumed: (depressed ♕ what else is new?)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-07-31 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[there's a slow nod.]

It's weird. But if they want to stick around, all we can do is let them after a point.

[ huffs ]

... Stick around's about the right word for it.
resumed: (hesitate ♕ I'm not sure what you mean)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-07-31 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Knowing the people you've associated with--[not just here, but back home]--I think you'll be stuck for a while at least.
skyagain: (144)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-01 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
They're stubborn. [ all of them. horribly. ] ... I guess I'm alright with that.
resumed: (neutral ♕ repeat that back and slowly)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-01 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Keep them. [why?] Making new friends is a pain in the ass anyway.

[friends. relationships. all of that.]
skyagain: (312)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-01 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ he kind of huffs out something close to a laugh ]

That the only reason?
resumed: (smile ♕ turn the tides)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-01 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you really need another reason? [he's obviously just kidding.] ...I've come to find that if they're still hanging around even knowing you have a few problems, they're worth it.
skyagain: (144)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-01 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
... I don't know much they ... know.

[ technically speaking. he says it a little hesitantly. sometimes you keep all that shit to YOURSELF ]
resumed: (neutral ♕ seriously?)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-01 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[there's a thoughtful noise.]

How much do you want them to know? There's still a lot I haven't told Will or Hazel and they've been around for a while.
skyagain: (70)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-01 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
... I don't know. I don't want any of them to... [ think less of him? ] Worry.
resumed: (depressed ♕ what else is new?)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-02 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
[staring at the ceiling...]

I've come to find that the most stubborn ones tend to worry even more when you don't tell them anything at all. But there's still a key in not saying too much either.

[when you don't want to give people an excuse to treat you differently. or leave. or think you really aren't as much as you want to be.]
skyagain: (pic#15789618)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-02 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
... Yeah. Kind of a tight line to walk, though.

[ but also, it is very clear he is doing that too, so. i hate that they are same hatting this. ]
resumed: (sad ♕ close-kept)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-02 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
And you'll probably fall off of the line a couple of times. [they really are same hatting this, it's horrible.] ...there are still times I'm not quite sure why Will's still around. Or why he still wants me around. But whatever his reasoning is it's been a while.

[so. you can fall off of the line but still make it work is what he means.]
skyagain: (312)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-02 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
...

[ he looks at nico then, a little wryly ]

... Probably because you're not nearly as bad as you think you are. [ he's aware this can be turned back on him but LOOK ]
resumed: (neutral ♕ repeat that back and slowly)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-02 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[there's just...a very quiet, calm stare that seems to say "that goes for both of us if you really think that's true.]
skyagain: (204)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-02 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he shrugs a little because he knew this stare was coming but LOOK he doesn't KNOW if that's true because he apparently doesn't know himself and that's terrifying it's FINE ]

... Just saying.
resumed: (closed ♕ I don't want to talk about it)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-02 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. I'm just...you know. [it's hard to like verbally say "yes that goes for both of us" but ALSO.] I can't speak for everyone else, but I'd like to think we're actually...

[...they are both allergic to the word friend, too.]

You get it.
skyagain: (160)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-02 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ listen it's the end of things he'll say it. he's pointedly looking at the ceiling but he says it; ]

We're friends too. [ a beat ] Means maybe we're just as stubborn as those guys, huh?
resumed: (smile ♕ softly)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-02 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[...there's a smile.]

Yeah. Maybe we are. I never doubted my own stubbornness but as long as people can deal with that. [he's not going to change, thanks.]
skyagain: (271)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-02 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ a bit of a smile back!!! gasps ]

We got at least a couple who've managed so far. [ wryly. ]
resumed: (smile ♕ fondly)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-03 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
A couple is really all you need. I'll take it.
skyagain: (207)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-03 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Be too annoying if there were too many.
resumed: (unsure ♕ =\)

[personal profile] resumed 2022-08-03 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know about you., but if there were too many I'd probably just leave permanently again.
skyagain: (68)

[personal profile] skyagain 2022-08-04 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Least you didn't have to attend most group meetings here. [ people....too many..... ]
