If it's not too much to ask, I'd like to make a humble request. Namely that if anyone wants to say anything about me, they at least have the decency and humanity to say it to my face. I'm getting very tired of whispers and people saying things next to me, but not to me

Comments

people say things
it is only your narcissism which allows you to believe it happens to you more than the rest of us

or is it paranoia?

[bootme]

Just because you're paranoid don't mean they're not after you.

And I never claimed to not be a narcissist.

[luna_see]

no
that was me

[bootme]

I suppose you did, then.

[luna_see]

may i ask you a
blunt
question?

[bootme]

If you wish, I suppose you may.

[luna_see]

what are you playing at?

[bootme]

Something I very much hope I can win.

Understand?

[luna_see]

i learned some spells
after they attacked the twins party
the kind they don't teach in school
my wand tore through steel like a paper doll
wolfman called me a natural

but instead of thinking
i know something new...
i am safer now...
i thought
they have known this all along
they can reach me through a suit of silver
what else do they know?

[bootme]

I suppose that's a difference between you and I, then.

I've learned new things, too. And as I've learned, each time I've gone 'I know this, now, what else is there?'

'What's the next step?'

[luna_see]

but with regards to playing and winning
there is always someone who is
many
steps
ahead

for me
each step is more frightening
and satisfaction never comes

you look very unsatisfied
lately

[bootme]

For me, each step is nothing more than an opening to another step, I suppose.

And the point is to keep moving and keep breathing.

And when you play to win, if you gamble with what matters most or for what matters most, the steps don't matter as much. You're thinking about the roll of the dice.

And it's an illusion.

[luna_see]

then i can only say that your skill
is crafting illusion

that must be what you are always looking up in the restricted section

[bootme]

And I can only say in return that I thought you would have figured that out a very long time ago.

And I'm looking up many things.

[luna_see]

then every answer is refracted like a million points of light
and we arrive back at the beginning which is the end

will you use what you learn to help or to harm?
i cannot be more plain than that

[bootme]

Help or harm who, exactly?

And you might want to start looking at your angles of refraction if you want to find an answer.
