[private entry]
Oh my god, I can't believe I posted that. I know Gust is behind me on this, and Corey probably will be, too, but I'm scared anyhow. What if nobody believes that we really do want to make things right? What if people just think I'm an idiot for wanting to try leading a team? I mean...I'm not brave. I still stutter around everybody except Grampa John and my adoptive family. Even though I can fight, I don't like it. Helping with natural disasters and accidents would mean a lot less chance of fighting, but I don't know if I can do it.
I guess I'm just sick of being afraid, and knowing that there's something I could do, if I'd just stop being a coward and do or say something.
I always wanted to blend in with everyone else, but with the way I look, that never happened. I got picked on throughout school, and then I met Aristotle and the Dragons. Aristotle, Gust and Corey - they were the first people who made me feel comfortable showing my hair in public. And then I made more friends. Ophelia, Terra, Starfire, Kole, Lightning, the other Titans, Aya, Mokuba, and, of course, Seto. And maybe now, I don't really have an excuse to want to blend in anymore. I'm not going to blend in...and I know some amazing people who all stand out in their own ways.
Maybe it's time for me to stop being afraid of standing out. I can't help but be nervous, but anyone who's really my friend will support my decision.
