[grandson...wants to talk to me? wat? Hopefully it is a good talking and not a bad talking.]

Ah?

[commentlog maybe idk?]

[ It's a bad talking, 'cause grandson wants not-grandfather out. ]

I appreciate the help that you've given me while I'm recovering, however I can take care of myself. You don't need to worry about me. Besides, I've got someone who knows his way around a bottle of disinfectant and bandages, so he can take care of me and I'll check up on you and Elysia back at Gohl.

[oooo well, what can you expect?]

Am I so troublesome to you?

[locked] a_lone_flame September 30 2009, 22:57:35 UTC

[ People to not be worried over me. D| ]

[...]

The one I live with... he and I have come to not trust people that easily.

[...]

Do you hopefully understand our reasons regarding such?

[locked] medanmyboy September 30 2009, 23:24:19 UTC

[he leans back, folds his hands in his lap.]

You have not told me your reasons.

[he doesn't say it coldly, or angrily. just stating the fact.]

Kai....

[how to say this. hrm.]

I want to respect your wishes. But I am worried about you.

[pause. he doesn't know your reasons, so, but he has some theories about it. no parental guidance as a child is his number one so far.]

Do you understand my reasons? Or do my actions seem strange to you?

[locked] a_lone_flame September 30 2009, 23:36:07 UTC

[ Kai looks away, obviously feeling his past creep up on him. Of all the things his grandfather inflicted on him, he definitely has his reasons to shy away from parental attachments. ]

My reasons... aren't meant to be known. [ Otherwise known as 'please don't make me delve into my past. I don't want to.' ]

[ He nods at the whole 'respect his wishes'. At least Meryl has the decency to do that for him. ]

It's... hard, okay? It's hard for me to accept this whole situation, alright?

[ He clenches his hands into fists, taking in a few breaths to calm himself down. ]

[meryl's bad feeling-ometer skyrockets. he...has to tread carefully, now. obviously this is not a good topic for kai. at the same time he has an urge to comfort the boy.

gently.]

Is being cared for such an upsetting situation?

[locked] a_lone_flame October 1 2009, 00:56:57 UTC

[ If Meryl tries to comfort Kai, he'll end up smacking Meryl's hands away and go hide in a corner or something. Sorry, Meryl. D| ]

I'm used to taking care of myself, Meryl. I don't lean on other people for my strength. Call it a pride thing, but it's something I've grown up to know. Expecting someone to suddenly change what they're used to is going to take time.

[...]

You understand, don't you?

[locked] medanmyboy October 1 2009, 01:07:27 UTC

[he frowns further. not angry at him - he just isn't sure what to do.]

I'm trying to understand. As much as I can.

[he looks away for a moment.]

I won't try your generosity. But give us to the morning to leave?

[locked] a_lone_flame October 1 2009, 01:10:11 UTC

[ Give him time to come around, Meryl. This is a difficult situation for him. ]

I appreciate that, and I do thank you for all that you've done. I'm not going to cut the ties I have with Elysia or you, and I'll still be around to come visit. Just... I need my space.

[ Kai nods his head. ] Okay. That works for me.

[locked] medanmyboy October 1 2009, 01:33:03 UTC

[he wouldn't expect the boy to "cut ties" with Elysia. he's seen how kai cares for her. little girls are perhaps less threatening than grown men. after another moment he looks back.]

There is no shame in leaning on another, Kai. Whether for need or want.

[...]

Thank you. I'll take Elysia home in the morning, then.

[... again.]

If ever you do need another...for whatever reason...I will be there for you.

[and that's all the mushiness for now.]

[locked] a_lone_flame October 1 2009, 01:42:02 UTC

[ For Elysia, I'd protect her with everything I've got. That, and she offered me a place to stay when I first came here. ]

Even so.

[...]

Don't mention it, and I'll assure her that I'll come over and play, or whatever big brothers do.

[...]

Thanks. I'll keep it in mind, Meryl.

[ Did Meryl just get a small smile from Kai? Yes. Yes, he did. ]

[locked] medanmyboy October 1 2009, 02:38:21 UTC

[he smiles a little at the "whatever big brothers do" thing. how cute. then...

w-wait, what? IS THE WORLD ENDING?]

Ah...

[s-smile!]

[locked] a_lone_flame October 1 2009, 02:46:18 UTC

... Don't get used to it.

[ And then, just like that, the smile dies. ]

[locked] dsgjjfg what a grumpy face medanmyboy October 1 2009, 03:42:22 UTC

[bam, so does his. except he is secretly smiling on the inside.]

Of course.

[and getting up.]

I won't keep you up.

[locked] He's the king of grumpy faces. a_lone_flame October 1 2009, 03:46:21 UTC

[ I downed an entire bottle of grumpy pills. ]

Alright.

[ Kai sighs quietly, happy that something ended peacefully for once. ]
