...Although, let's face it, how would I know if I wasn't?
I'm standing down from Defcon 4. Or 1. Whichever. And not because I've suddenly decided I agree with Anakin Skywalker. Or Rory, for that matter. I still think Anakin is a dangerous guy, and I still violently disagree with his ideas about memory-erasure and the Jedi approach to it.
But since I can barely remember how this whole mess started-- not in a brain-blank sense, but just in a 'what the hell were we fighting about, exactly, to begin with' sense -- and since Rory's chosen to believe in Anakin no matter what I say, there's no point in saying anything more. There's nothing to win here. Or if there is, they've won already. Skywalker pointed out that if this fight wasn't enough to make him erase my mind, there probably isn't much right now that will. I hope. I'm checking in with you about it every once in a while, though, because I don't know for certain what could set him off.
Yes, I am just that paranoid. No, I don't care what that says about me. Although Jack was right, tact might've helped at least make my point. Maybe. And Jarod was probably right too, I should've just made up with Rory. Let it go, not felt like I had to defend what I said or did or felt.
It didn't work like that.
Hope the demon killing is easy and the fees are high. Stick your tongue out at Logan for me, will you?
As ever,
Parker
