~57th Dance~

Are the unattached masses really so insecure about it that they have to be fretting over Saint Valentine's already? By having the forethought to insist that you don't care two weeks ahead of time, you're being contradictory. And of course, mind-numbingly irritating.

As for me, I only wish that I could be home for it. My father tends to brood.

It's a dumb holiday and kids become dumb because of it.

[donttelldaddy]

I don't think it's stupid, but certainly not important enough to warrant feeling sorry for yourself if you can't participate.

[yukimi_mama]

What else are they gonna think about when they're being surrounded by couples and all that love business.

[donttelldaddy]

What I think about is how much better off I am without another person trying to tell me what to do.

[yukimi_mama]

You don't seem the type to let anyone do that as it is..

[donttelldaddy]

I do, on occasion. I'm very picky.

[yukimi_mama]

You could've fooled me.

[donttelldaddy]

Meaning what, exactly?

[yukimi_mama]

You certainly act like authority is a problem. I can't imagine you letting someone control you.

[donttelldaddy]

I'm always willing to listen to a reasonable person.

[yukimi_mama]

And how often do you think someone is a "reasonable person"?

[donttelldaddy]

Not very. Why, are you wanting to join the ranks?

[yukimi_mama]

With how often we butt heads, I don't see that happening any time soon.

[donttelldaddy]

Butting heads? I'm afraid I can't recall~

[yukimi_mama]

Not like it doesn't happen every day.

[donttelldaddy]

Provocation isn't the same thing.

Speaking of which, have I been forgiven already for the Quidditch loss?
