Hey, Sasha, you around? I totally need to talk. About my boyfriends. Because I just don't know what the hell to say to them about this.

I'm around. You could have called, I'd always pick up for you.

What's going on?

Yeah, right. You'd be all, "Oh him. That emotionally stunted guy I'm sick of listening to" and totally screen that call.

So. I think my boyfriends want to be superheros. In fact, I know they do. And I hate it. And so now they probably won't because of that, and that's wrong.

Damn, you caught me.

...Aren't they already superheroes? We're not going by my definition here. Why do you hate it?

I knew it. I'm gonna have to send you a bunch of annoying texts, just to get you for it.

Well. I mean. They have powers, yeah. We all do. But they want to be on a team. Like, organized superhero crime fighting and all that shit. It's different.

I don't know why. That's the part I'm supposed to be figuring out, and have to tell JP. I... well. Reacted badly. I think I hurt him. I didn't mean to.

I'll turn my phone off, thanks for the warning.

Okay. So signing up for the cause. Got it.

Whatever you said, he already knows you didn't mean to hurt him. So you're figuring it out, before you talk to him about it again. That's smart. I wouldn't want Peter to join up or anything like that, either. I'd be afraid of him getting hurt and stuff.

Well, shit.

Not exactly the best phrasing to use, Sasha. But something like that.

I don't think he wants to talk about it. He just wants to give it up, cause of me.
Well, it's only partially smart. I already fucked up with it, so I'm trying to think it through. But I don't know how to explain it.
Yeah. The getting hurt and stuff, that's a worry. So is Saj becoming a target.
And, you know. I've been on teams before. It's... well. I don't know. It's not all it's cracked up to be.

...Sorry.

You're afraid they'll get in over their heads with something the way you did?

No worries.

Yeah. Maybe. It won't be quite the same. They'll be good guys.
I mean. There's some good things about being on the team. Depending on the team. And they think they'll be doing good, and that's important.

Isn't that what you thought? I'd word it differently but, yeah.

john_movinon June 24 2009, 01:24:53 UTC
Well, yeah. I thought that. Turns out it wasn't true, and no one else thought that either.
It could be different for them. That's good.

Anyway. I still don't like the superhero team idea. I don't even want it to happen. But that's stupid and selfish, because they do. JP, he... so how the hell do I tell them that? "I don't want you to do it, but go ahead and do it!"

You learned how to really do good things though, after that.

I think you have to pinpoint what it is that bothers you. You need to be able to explain yourself. Maybe you're not there yet, and no one is saying you have to be.

john_movinon June 24 2009, 01:39:28 UTC
Yeah, I guess.

Yeah, I know. And I don't think I can pinpoint it. Not yet. I mean. I just know that I don't like superhero teams much. Or, like. At all.

Why not?

john_movinon June 24 2009, 01:43:53 UTC
I don't know. I just don't.

I mean. They're supposed to be, like. My opposition, right? The Other Guys. The, to be over dramatic... nemesis.

That sounds so fucking stupid.

You think they're all against you?

Reply

john_movinon June 24 2009, 01:50:30 UTC
What? No. Not at all.
It's just a stupid trip up in the back of my head that, like, reminds me that I'm supposed to be against them.

But I'm not. Anymore. I'm not like that anymore.
