Maora is starting to think that maybe it would be a good idea to be more honest with people. It's not like Maora wants to lie, or hide anything. But it's a lot nicer to be natural without great surprise. Such hard decisions, though concerning the current situations, maybe it would be better to think on it later. It's not a very good time to do

Just be yourself.

Maora is always Maora! Just, sometimes people get the wrong idea.

[hamonatrix]

I would think that is as much their own fault for making assumptions.

[misformail]

Perhaps, but then, Maora can't blame them for it.

[hamonatrix]

You may fool the eye somewhat, but there are four other senses. Sometimes even five.

[misformail]

That is very true! But it still dosn't change that Maora hasn't known a single person who wasn't surprised.

[hamonatrix]

I imagine that would be frustrating.

[misformail]

Not really, as long as they don't react badly, or get upset. So far the few times that mattered, the person was okay.

[hamonatrix]

That's good, then.

People are always surprised when the find out I'm a lot older than I look.

[misformail]

Oh? How old are you?

[hamonatrix]

Would you believe it if I said I was fifty years old?

[misformail]

Really!? Well, Maora has run into a lot of different things here, so it's not overly surprising considering.

[hamonatrix]

Most people don't think I look much older than my son. Not that I can complain.

[misformail]

He's your son? Sort of want to apologize for you having an asshole for a kid. Well, it's a good thing to look that young, right? Youth is worth a lot!

[hamonatrix]

Yes, that's my son. But he's only half my fault. And I apologize. I don't know where he got his attitude. At least I won't have to worry about not being able to keep up with my grandchildren ...if we ever get home, that is.

[misformail]

Oh, you know boys, they can be like that sometimes.

Maora is sure you will return one day! After all, others have before.
