Did your plans with your fiancé recover from my partner's...intervention?

[driftsintobuffetline]

I came home with a husband who didn't make me sleep on the couch. I think it recovered pretty nicely, yeah. Thanks, by the way.

[4thdimensional]

I'm relieved. I hope the two of you had a wonderful ceremony regardless of the hiccups.

[driftsintobuffetline]

We both showed up and said "I do." Honestly, can't really get more wonderful than that.

[4thdimensional]

That sounds wonderful. My congratulations to both of you.

If you could study a live specimen of any fictional creature - fictional in your world, I guess, just to be clear - what would it be?

[driftsintobuffetline]

God, uh.... shit. I think I need a moment. Cthulhu, maybe, though that sounds like a terrible idea, but I really want to say Cthulhu? Hermann would kill me.

I would have probably said dragons, but I've had the privilege of meeting them here. And before that, Godzilla or a Kaiju, but those are obviously not fictional anymore.

Can't I just catch them all?

[magnitudes]

Right? Good question, if I do say so myself.

Cthulhu's a good one. Like a bit of Lovecraftian horror, do you? Because "giant and scary" seems to be a theme. Great theme, mind you, not criticising.

Whaddya think of me?

Re: Newton "Newt" Geiszler | Pacific Rim

Hard to say. I kind of want to like you. But I don't think you like me much and that's normal for me, so...whatever. but you're hard to get a read on and I think you like it that way, so standoffish, that is what I think of you...wounded and bullied enough that Mako feels the need to protect you.

What do you think of me?

[dirtyredneck]

I like you.

[Daryl says it in a sad, almost hurt tone. He wasn't trying to be standoffish or hard to read. He just wasn't good at a lot of socializing.]

You're smart, but you make a lot of assumptions and you push real hard for people to listen to you and do what you think is right, but you don't listen back. You just barrel on through. Think you need to slow your roll a little, but that don't make not like you.

[driftsintobuffetline]

You. Seriously? You like me?

I have meds to slow my roll, but they only do so much. If I'm honest, listening is new for me, but if you're willing to be patient, maybe I'll get there?

I mean, I'll totally get there.

[dirtyredneck]

Okay.

[If the guy wanted to try, Daryl wasn't going to nay say that.]

[restingstitchface]

What do you loathe about your existence here?

[driftsintobuffetline]

YOU.

Honesty time: I guess I loathe the faulty impermanence of it, which, okay, impermanence is true of any existence, but the fact that we can lose someone--only to have them return without memories or different or whatever. It seems like it'd be worse than just losing them permanently. Like, Steve Rogers. I liked the guy, but if I had really known him? Then the Steve Rogers Revolving door this place had for a while could have been pretty devastating.

Hate that what happens here doesn't move forward with us, either, like a filler episode in an anime.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Also kind of loathe that it's pretty near impossible to find an imPort mental health expert I'm cool with. I don't doubt your guys' qualifications, but. Yeeeeahh.

[restingstitchface]

Yes, well, I am afraid you must make do. The risk is minimal. I assure you that I take good care of my patients.
