Nathan tried to reply, but found that no sound came out of his mouth '[i]so, that's her game; just shut me up with magic. Does she really not feel like she can fight my words with her own words?[/i]' Nathan snorted as he shook his head '[i]why are there always people like this; people that just expect everyone to roll over and bow to their whims just because their stronger? Nothing but a bunch of bullies, the whole lot of them.[/i]' However, he had been angry too much for too long, and his anger soon burned out into apathy. '[i]You know what? Fine. Let them throw around their weight, see if I care[/i]' He then turned a lazy eye over to Reala '[i]but what I want to know is why she thinks I even want to be with Meria? Why would I want to be involved with someone who could so casually lie to me with such easy, and about something pointless too? I've had too many bad relationships with people like that. So much that I have no reason to believe that I'd ever be able to have those kind of feelings for her. Hell, I don't even believe that girl who claimed to be my daughter from the future anymore...[/i] he continued rambling to himself mentally like that for awhile.
