I feel as though I should be following the elections more closely, but at the same time, I know so little about the candidates, that any contribution on my part would be irresponsible and ill-informed

"Homeslice"?... That sounds like some kind of food dish.

[nightcrossed]

I'm inclined to agree with you. At first I thought perhaps it referred to a bread loaf recipe passed down by word of mouth, but I don't think that's quite right...

[throwtheroses]

Well, let's see, if it's a slang word, and if it's like food. Maybe it's like giving someone a nickname, like "lambchop" or "sweetie pie"?

[nightcrossed]

L-lambchop...?

Like a pet name. Yes, perhaps you're right.
If you follow that course of logic, it does make sense.

[throwtheroses]

Sure, do you like pet names yourself? I tend to use them a lot.

[nightcrossed]

To be honest, I try to avoid them.

Within the Oracle Knights it was always important to remember a person's full name and titles. I suppose the closest I ever got to using one was back when my brother and I shortened our names to make them more manageable, but I don't think that's quite the same.

By the way, I'm Tear.

[throwtheroses]

Oh well, then I'll try to be careful then.

Pleasure to meet you Tear, my name is Wolf.

[nightcrossed]

It's perfectly all right... I was only stating my own preference.

Yes. It's nice to meet you, Wolf.
Have you been in Paixao long?

[throwtheroses]

Oh yes, I arrived not too long ago. It's quite nice here actually, compared to where I use to live.

[nightcrossed]

I'm sorry to hear that, though I'll admit it's something of a relief to see one being so optimistic about the situation.

I suppose the city does have its advantages, though if I had the choice, I think I'd rather return home.

[throwtheroses]

Well yea, I think most of us do want to return home. I do too, but only for one reason. That involves someone I care about a lot, but I think I still need time to think about that...

/facepalms at self;

[nightcrossed]

I suppose you're right, though only for one reason...?

If it's about someone you care for, you may end up doing a great deal of thinking and realize you still haven't come to any reasonable conclusions.

*much hugs*

[throwtheroses]

...I suppose you're right.

I have already made so many mistakes already. I have a lot of regrets. Let's just say that.

[nightcrossed]

That's quite understandable. Everyone makes errors, most certainly when their loved ones are involved. It can be... difficult.

[throwtheroses]

Hopefully, Virginia....she's the girl I'm worried about, will be alright. I'm mostly concerned if she is ok without me, but I don't want her to be angry if I show up again. So... Yea, conflicted, but I still do care about her.
