*Smiles heartwarmingly, ever so slightly*
You know, I’m glad you’re thinking this through with me. It does show a lot of strength.

@Stratocracy

Why act nice like that? It won't help you. Just tell me what you think for real.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

You said you feel part of him bonded to yourself. You have no way to tap into that, and feel it out at all?

@Stratocracy

Not that quick. I need to think on it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I think you’ve got to stop thinking about it in terms of me. I could have left a while ago by now, never confronted you, and likely would have never had to meet you face to face at any point again in the future. And my life would be unchanged. For me? None of this is about me. It never was. Only one of us standing here matters right now, and it’s not me.

@Stratocracy

If I could turn back time, that would not make him regret or hate me. I need more.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

If it was in spite for them, do you think growing to be someone they care about once more would hage an effect?

@Stratocracy

*Thinks about it, clearly displeased with some of the implications*
That would be great for you, huh?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Well the first option lends credence to what I was trying to get at. But who would he be trying to spite?

@Stratocracy

All the ones who cared for me back then. Who else?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

*Pats you gently on the head as you feel a soothing sensation of innermost peace and comfort, as if you are truly cared for - then turns to leave while making sure the outer void is still unable to reclaim dominion by waving my hands gently to have a feel of the environment*

@The Multiverse

*It pulses more gently, relaxing*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Not even the absolutely insane do anything without some reason. Did he have any beliefs? Any desires?

@Stratocracy

To see if he could? Out of spite? For fun?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

That’s not something you do without purpose. It takes motive.

@Stratocracy

It's a thing he would do. That's why it makes me mad.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

If he truly didn’t care, then why did he do it?

@Stratocracy

*Shrugs*
To kill time?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

It’s new? Not something you’ve been pondering for ages?

@Stratocracy

*Shakes my head*
I thought he cared. This is way new.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Purses my lips and crosses my arms*
Hmm…

@Stratocracy

*Hops back and grabs my cup, moving it in a circle in my hand to stir its contents*
This is all new for me. Soooooo... I’m lost for now!
