It's a little bit of both actually.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Considering.]

[Then again, he's also a compartmentalizer, so maybe it's just easier for him.]

I guess I could see that.

[ Considering ]

... let's just say time bomb is more accurate than you realize.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

....considering how many headcases are on board, I would be very surprised if that's the case.

And mildly terrified.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

Headcases?

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

There are people who act like having a pleasant conversation is more terrible than torture.

Or a bit of kindness is some huge thing either good or bad.

A lot of people don't know how to take care of themselves.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

Different sorts and all that, I guess. You get used to it. Or you help them get used to it. We're all in this together. And some of us come from some pretty sucky places.

[ Not going to comment on the taking care of himself part ]

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

Yeah, see, it'd be a lot easier if people got we were all in this together. [S I G H]

[Oh, don't worry.]

[That fake it comment already got Felix on his Watch List.]

I think they do when it matters. It sounds like they all helped each other after the bad trial. It's just harder to break a pattern that you've probably lived your life by. It's scary, you know.

[DUSK IS NOW A DAD FOR ALL.]

I'm not saying everyone is like that. I'm just saying there's enough like that it's incredibly worrying with how low the population is.

And I know, but you still have to try. Especially because it's hard and scary.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

Maybe that's why we were chosen. We're the most desperate for bonds.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

...and I guess having the other side of the spectrum is to have people bully those types into bonds.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

Balance in the force and all that.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

It sounds exhausting, honestly.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

I thought extreme socializing is your thing.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

More like I know why trying is important from first hand experience.

Not scary and I like friends, but that much aggressive socializing is really draining.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

That's why you're not doing it by yourself.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

It is pretty hard to socialize by yourself.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

[ Laughs and bumps his leg with his head ]

You know what I mean.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

I kmow. [More ear scratches.] I just think I'm more introverted than extroverted. I just also have an insane need to do what needs doing even if its personally tiring.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

[ Wags his tail again ]

Now that does sound like a lot of work. Me, I just like the attention.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

Attention can be nice, I've found. [Mostly because he's been under a Charm affect until day 40 to thimk everyone is ridiculously charming, thanks Vampire.]

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

Yep, makes you feel all special and fuzzy inside.

Re: [Bond ]

[schrodingerscockroach]

... [blushing now.] Yeah, true.

Re: [Bond ]

[malignstar]

Aww cute.
