*Winces*
Would you be comfortable not doing dangerous things like that?

@Fractured

I'm trying. If it helps, I can switch to one of my softer knives and promise you it can't hurt me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Oh yeah. That’s familiar.

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

I smell some kind of shenanigans. Just don’t know if I wanna stick my nose in it yet.

@Heroic

Really? Where'd you hear about it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Whatever helps is good, I suppose.

@Fractured

Yeah. Whatever helps. *Fingers my knife* Sorry. Sometimes I want to talk about it, sometimes I don't. Thanks for listening, anyway!

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Can you put things on rotation?

@Fractured

I have. Training, exploring and fighting, and music stuff.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

You could increase the amount of time you spend doing that.

@Fractured

The relief fades after a while, if I increase the time. Even when I don’t, it fades enough that I have to do something else.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

You could always do something not as good.

@Fractured

I already do. There’s music and poetry. Concerts, too.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Why do you have to do the best thing?

@Fractured

I... uh, I'd rather not answer that question.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

That doesn't sound very healthy. Why not forget another way?

@Fractured

I... can't say anything about whether it's healthy or not. But I've tried to find other ways, and this just works the best. Even better than fighting itself.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

I don't think I follow.

@Fractured

I forget about the anger for a while, when I'm hurting.
