[Cissie's using text today, because she is cranky and wants some privacy.]

This flood sucks. The last one was better. [And yes. She was stuck with O'Brien for that one.] And Admiral, this had better be temporary. I don't need two inmates.

Rape and slavery. Neither I can make an exception for.

[Sent a moment later.]

Is there something bothering you? [Now he's concerned.]

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 30 2011, 02:02:02 UTC

...Those are good ones. [Darn, now her issues seem petty. SIGH. She would like to avoid part two of this comment. But he wouldn't believe her if she said no.]

This flood. I just need some alone time, but that's not so possible.

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 30 2011, 02:04:06 UTC

[At least she can let things go at all.]

You're trapped with someone who you can't forgive?

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 30 2011, 02:22:40 UTC

[That kind of depends on your definition of letting things go.]

...Could you maybe be a little less perceptive, Rhade? I'm going for nonchalant and unbiased, here.

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 30 2011, 02:28:02 UTC

I think I could be less perceptive to strictly hypothetical scenarios if the need should arise.

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 31 2011, 00:51:31 UTC

Let's say hypothetically you trusted someone when they asked you to, and later they admit that while you were trusting them, they did something they knew would betray and hurt you but they still want you to forgive them. Hypothetically, what should you do? Even though you hypothetically want to punch them in the face.

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 31 2011, 01:00:38 UTC

That's actually a difficult question. [Oh, Dylan.] Someone once said, "I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you."

But some of us that thought we were betraying people for the right reasons, have been wanting forgiveness. And the idea that we'll never find it tears us apart.

It's a matter of what would be better for you, really. Because someone worthy of forgiveness shouldn't expect anything of you anymore.

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 31 2011, 03:46:09 UTC

What makes it a right reason, though? I mean, who decides if it's right?

[TOPIC CHANGE IS RELATED, BUT PROBABLY SEEMS OUT OF LEFT FIELD]

How does marriage in your culture work again?

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 31 2011, 04:16:06 UTC

You decide if it's right. You are in charge of yourself, and you're in charge of the burdens and possible futures you want to be a part of.

[Oh my! Topic change.]

Female declares her interest in the male and one day having a family. She seeks the approval of a matriarch. She gives him a double helix armband and the relationship is consummated. If he's unable to perform as a husband or father, she's free to leave, and he's not entitled to argument.

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 31 2011, 04:28:30 UTC

...Are your marriages monogamous? Or do you have multiple wives or husbands?

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 31 2011, 04:33:18 UTC

Polygynous usually. Polyandry rarely, mostly for the sake of keeping track of who was the father of their children. I had three wives, but they all approached and chose me as a husband.

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 31 2011, 04:36:51 UTC

So... cheating's not really an issue? Or--I guess, it is? Given the fatherhood issue.

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 31 2011, 04:41:24 UTC

Not if we're okay with it.

I personally would have rather she moved on to another husband if I couldn't adequately satisfy her. Not that I bear any particular animosity to a woman sleeping with someone else, but in a committed understanding relationship there's a point where she would be insinuating I wasn't performing adequately as a husband and father.

I wouldn't try to hold her back from leaving, but I shouldn't be made to feel inferior to someone she desires more.

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 31 2011, 12:03:33 UTC

See? That's the key. Committed relationship. Feeling inferior. Would it matter if she came back and said something like 'it was for closure, so I could figure out how I felt, oh whoops, you're better after all'?

[Private | Text] majorum_pride August 31 2011, 13:55:33 UTC

Really, there are very few men I feel comfortable enough with to raise each other's children.

[That, is bizarrely specific. He has to think for a while before responding.]

My people are aggressively competitive. Every moment of our lives is a contest. But I would, at least, like to know if I was competing instead of being told after the fact.

[Private | Text] notarrowette August 31 2011, 23:48:58 UTC

See? Right. Yes. If you don't even know it's a competition, how is that fair?
