<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

*Grits my teeth together and smashes my thumbs into your eyes*
[/quote]

*Lets you press against them for a moment as I speak, even though as you apply force it feels truly like I am more and more immutable*
I believe in someone else’s conviction. A belief that[i] you[/i] are worthy.
*Grabs your other wrist, forces your arms to the side and lets your fall forward into a hug from me*
And if she believes it, so do I.
