Looks at him with an ironical smile
Greetings, Cupid. I have noticed something unusual in my behaviour recently and have thought, whether your Bliss was engaged in his former innocent pranks again.
strokes her chakram keeping smiling

You know Xena, love suits you, but I am afraid it looks like this falls into the "it just happened category". *Grins*

xena_warrior September 5 2005, 19:56:07 UTC

Her eyes were angrily narrowed, but she continued to smile
You know my opinion about love, Cupid. My way of life is not compatible with such romanticism. I admit an opportunity " it just happened " but... If someone on Olympus has decided to manipulate my feelings...
does a deep breath
I just wanted to tell... It was very bad idea.

5min_freestyle September 5 2005, 19:58:08 UTC

Of course, Xena. I can say this time safely, that it was not from me or mine. *genuine honest look*

xena_warrior September 5 2005, 20:06:50 UTC

Xena looks at him steadfastly, trying to understand as far as he is truthful, and then nods
All right...
frowns
But then...
rubs her eyes with hand and thinks scaredly
"Then I have problems... Damn't! "

5min_freestyle September 5 2005, 20:09:12 UTC

Why? He doesn't look like he wants to kill you--if anything, looks like he might make an excellent match...

xena_warrior September 5 2005, 20:18:02 UTC

She sighs again. And speaks unexpectedly frankly, knowing, that will not hide these thoughts from the god.
Oh, it frightens me most of all, Cupid.
I am afraid... that...
Bites her lip
My life is full of dangers. And I do not want to subject my friends... and beloved to these dangers... I hope, I have clearly stated my idea? I have no right to become attached to somebody. For the sake of their safety only.

But then you take away their freedom to choose their own path.

xena_warrior September 6 2005, 05:37:37 UTC

I just want to protect them!

5min_freestyle September 7 2005, 01:03:44 UTC

"Of course you do, but at the same time you reign them to a loveless state. Not much of a life."

xena_warrior September 7 2005, 04:13:43 UTC

She bites her lip, understanding the bitter truth of his words, then starts to walk around.
But what should I do? Look, Cupid... You know... you know why I act with them in such way. I know, that it will be better, if...
sighs
I always lose my fight if I get involved in love affair with men. They use my love as means of influence for me...
becomes silent, having realized, that she talks to this artful god too frankly.

5min_freestyle September 7 2005, 04:59:47 UTC

Do you want the truth Xena? You are strong, a fighter to the end and that is probably how you will go--if you ever do. Do you really want your entire life to hold absolutely no joy of love found even if it means the end. Those people you protect will eventually die one way or the other and there will be people to miss them because they were loved.

*smiles gently*

xena_warrior September 7 2005, 05:16:19 UTC

nods, but still refuses to agree with him
Cupid... I... loved them... I loved Caesar and Borias... But it was different love. It was passion, lust, not true love. I believe, you understand it. I loved them and behaved as if I have only one day. But I have changed since then. That is why I doubt now... I cannot act how would act in the past... But I... not sure, that...
sighs.
Yes, all of us shall die sometime... But I do not want to accelerate this process. Especially for those ones who are dear to me.

5min_freestyle September 7 2005, 20:10:03 UTC

Then I feel for you Xena and hope that your time spent with this new love is treasured before you send them away. *smiles sadly*

xena_warrior September 8 2005, 10:55:04 UTC

Xena frowns, having heard his answer
Do you try to pity me? Tell me, Cupid, really you would act differently on my place? You would began to endanger those ones whom you love? Yes... I agree, time which has been spend with them is precious, but the price... Would you pay such price?

5min_freestyle September 8 2005, 14:36:58 UTC

No, I just truly wish you as much time as possible before you send them away. That is all. No pitying here, Xena.
