I don't know what to do with myself now.

Do NOT, under any circumstances go out after dark for like two weeks. I'm not even kidding.

[deep_red_bells]

...At all?

[no_substitution]

No. Because then you'll be strolling along, contemplating life's mysteries and someone will STAB YOU TO DEATH and the person with you will pretend it didn't happen at all and quitting will have been for naught.

I just said for naught...

[deep_red_bells]

...Wow. I'm confused.

[criminal_issues]

You mean, after you quit slaying?

[deep_red_bells]

Yeah.

[ineed_therush]

You should do something you like to do.

[deep_red_bells]

Yes. I just...gotta figure out what that is.

[monticello_tj]

What did you do with yourself before?

[deep_red_bells]

Honestly? I can't remember.

[monticello_tj]

Then why do you quit - to run from that which you fear beyond reason, or to rediscover the root of who you are?

[deep_red_bells]

It's probably a bit of both. Mostly, I wanted to break the cycle? But I don't think it's in me to just do nothing. I never used to think of myself as driven, but for the last couple of years I've had this...quest. I think I need to find something to keep me busy. Something to work towards.

[whattingawhat]

You do whatever you want. That was the point of quitting, right?

[deep_red_bells]

I guess, I just have to figure out what that is.

[whattingawhat]

Maybe something you couldn't do as a slayer?

[deep_red_bells]

Maybe. I could go back to school. Volunteer somewhere since money's really not an issue.
