[Private to Rex]
Can you meet me in my room? I need to talk to you there.
[And PUBLIC. Posted later, after talking to Rex.]
What happens in the span of two years? Or five? What can a man accomplish with nothing but time? When you can see nothing but eternity stretching out in front of you, do you cling to the past or move forward? Do you dig in your heels and resist the pulling of the tides towards that inevitable end? Perhaps that's what this place is. A river with a current constantly at your feet, dragging you to a destination you cannot predict.
I was once afraid of that destination. It was a terrible place of my nightmares. A place where I would no longer be myself. A place where my life meant absolutely nothing.
That's not exactly true.
Two years. Twenty four days. That's how long it took to get here.
[His tone changes to something lighter. More playful.] And you thought I never would. Graduate, that is.
Maybe we'll see each other again.
[OOC: OH YEAH! Sometime after this post, he's going to leave and be off barge. His room will return to barge normal during that time. BUT HE WILL RETURN. I'll throw up an OOC post about it when he does. I have no willpower, so it probably won't be long.]
