so..

I was cleaning earlier. Not because I felt like I was supposed to or anything, but I couldn't find a book I wanted to read. But my dorm is clean now and it's kinda nice.

Also, it seems like the old Panda's here too now. Stalking me to make sure I'm doing my studying and other Bookman-type things. Urk.Oh, well. At least Nana can meet her "grandpa"

I'm not stalking. I'm supervising.

[itz_hammertime]

...That's like the same thing.

[notapanda]

Get your facts straight.

[itz_hammertime]

Okay, sorry: When it comes to you, they're the same thing.

[notapanda]

We need to talk.

[itz_hammertime]

..Yeah, I figured.

[notapanda]

I already know what's going on between you and Kanda. That much is obvious. Who is this "Nana" girl?

[itz_hammertime]

Er. Yeah, that. Obvious? You could call it that...

Nana is, er. Well. She's a 6 year old girl missing her arms and legs. Komui made prosthetics for her. She was living on her own in the streets of Japan, so I brought her back to the Order. She calls me her papa, but she has a foster father too.. Uh, I think that covers it?..

Rabi. I've told you to not let your emotions get in the way many times. I'm beginning to think you're not suitable for the position of the next Bookman. Not only is this relationship with Kanda disappointing, but now you're getting attached to children. You never acted this way with your other alias. What's changed?

Re: [private to Rabi]

[itz_hammertime]

I know, old man. Too many times. I know I'm too attached to Yuu. I don't have an explanation for that, and I don't know what to do about it either.

She's not my child; I won't get too attached. I'm just taking care of her. I'll never have my own family, and she's got nothing to do with the war. Is it really going to hurt to look after her?

I don't know what's changed. This alias feels... a little different sometimes.

Re: [private to Rabi]

[notapanda]

Either way, all of it needs to stop.

Re: [private to Rabi]

[itz_hammertime]

Stop? ...Completely?

Re: [private to Rabi]

[notapanda]

I believe that's what I said.

Re: [private to Rabi]

[itz_hammertime]

What do you mean? What exactly do you want me to do?

Re: [private to Rabi]

[notapanda]

Attachment is a liability. You're forgetting what's most important. I want you to stop loving, Rabi.

Re: [private to Rabi]

[itz_hammertime]

Stop loving? Attachments are a liability?

..I'm sorry. I let myself get carried away. I'll... try to take care of it.
