==> QW: See red
What is color all is red. [/center] CALI: This has nothing to do with me
CALI: I do feel bad for him
CALI: Because I hurt him
CALI: But I would have hurt him worse
CALI: That's what it's about
CALI: I don't want to hurt him that bad
CALI: Because I do love him!
oshi--what did you just say? [/center] |

==> FA: Have an epiphany, realize that Cali was right the whole time and you were just being unreasonable, then hug it out and declare yourself to be her best friend ever.You backhand her. Hard. CAEL: really.
CAEL: you love him.
CAEL: okay. You're still seething, but you're cold. Logical. You've activated LAWYER MODE. CAEL: do you love him enough to forget about ocia? just completely drop him as a boyfriend, no makeouts or anything?
CAEL: do you love him enough to not kill yourself for "the greater good" or whatever it is you're doing?
CAEL: are you in love with him?
CAEL: call me crazy, but all im seeing is a ton of guilt and pity and wanting to be right about everything you do.
CAEL: you cant.
CAEL: youre fifteen years old.
CAEL: youre not supposed to be right about everything.
CAEL: but being wrong about something and feeling bad about it doesnt make it okay to string a guy along like that.
CAEL: and you dont drop a bomb like 'hey i have to die soon' and expect him to be totally okay with that.
CAEL: not to mention that suddenly deciding that you love someone when youre angry and desperate to prove someone wrong is just
CAEL: it doesnt work that way.
CAEL: these places are weird and magical and nothing even really feels like real life, but that doesnt make it a feel-good movie. [/center] |

==> QW: Cry
You want to. Not from the backhand either, you hardly felt that. And you deserved it anyway. But it seems even if you manage to get away from Ross's home the confusion that he causes is going to follow you. Suddenly you feel less like screaming. [/center] CALI: You're right!
CALI: You're right about almost everything!
CALI: You know that
CALI: I know that
CALI: And it's not going to change anything
CALI: But what you're most right about
CALI: Is that I'm fifteen
CALI: And everything is confusing
CALI: And Ross is confusing
CALI: And Ocia offers clarity
CALI: You were fifteen once
CALI: How confusing was it for you?
CALI: I wish it could all work out
CALI: But what would you have me do
CALI: Right now if you could dictate my actions
CALI: With convenient little commands
CALI: What would you have me do?

==> FA: Punch something.There's nothing to punch but Cali, and backhanding her was bad enough. CAEL: girl
CAEL: growing up sucks
CAEL: you just do what you gotta do
CAEL: and you do it fast, quiet, and you get it over with
CAEL: and you dont mess around with peoples feelings
CAEL: you dont deserve ross
CAEL: and it sounds like youre just fine with ocia
CAEL: aside from the whole suicide thing
CAEL: but were not gonna worry about that
CAEL: because it aint happening
CAEL: and thats pretty much that [/center] |

==> QW: Sit down
Your legs feel weak. You're still mulling over the words that had escaped your mouth. So you just sit down. Not like you can look anymore the fool in front of Ross's sister. You're barely in control of yourself and you want to cry something fierce. [/center] CALI: Me or Ross
CALI: That's basically what you're stuck with
CALI: Because if I can't go through with what I need to
CALI: I'm going back there
CALI: To Ross
CALI: And no doubt I'll end up hurting him more
CALI: That's all I'm good at
CALI: Just a stupid and selfish little girl
CALI: Hurting all those around me
CALI: And I don't see any other way for that to happen
CALI: Either you cling to me
CALI: Interfere
CALI: But if you keep me from going back to Ross
CALI: Then you'll never see him again yourself.
CALI: So it's your call.

==> FA: Do something. What can you do? This girl's just sitting down not doing anything, and you're just half-mad, half-exasperated. You're not entirely sure if she's being serious or just seriously messed up in the head. CAEL: im sticking with you
CAEL: as long as ross is okay, ill be here
CAEL: i dont know why you think ill never see him again
CAEL: or why those are your only two options
CAEL: but whatever
CAEL: werent you doing something before
CAEL: shouldnt you be doing that instead of sitting around and sulking [/center] |

==> QW: Return to what you were doing.
There's little else to say at the moment, so you don't bother. You're going to have to handle Cael some way or other before you meet Ocia and it's clear she's going to shadow you for as long as she sees fit. Your previous threat would be too tedious to follow through with, so some more measures will have to be taken. You pull your goggles down over your eyes again and return to building up to Venn's portal. [/center] |
