o28. i'm not one of your little toys;
[OOC: This is the rather more rational of Briseis' temper, carried over from the first part of the event. In all fairness, Electra was right; you can't just stop at the screaming. And yes, she is being mildly vindictive. AND WE'RE SORRY FOR THE SPAMMING.]
[Filtered away from Agamemnon and his kin (and Apollo; sorry).]
Achilles.
Ignoring, for the time being, the fact that you disgust me, you are also apparently completely incapable of noticing when there is something extremely wrong--and unnaturally wrong--with your wife's behaviour. Did the shrieking and violence throughout the rest of the complex not give you clue enough that I was not sound of mind? Or do you simply find it easier to argue with women who have no grasp on their usual selves?
Admittedly, I cannot imagine it is easy to realise that Electra knows more of my mental welfare than you do. Nor can it be easy to have people finally voicing their genuine opinion at the top of their lungs.
And maybe it did not occur to you that I do not filter my posts because I do not wish to appear openly affected by the things people try to throw in my face. Maybe you didn't realise that I like having acquaintances other than yourself and Patroclus. I don't care whether you dislike Andromache or anyone else I speak with; I have never asked for your blessing regarding my friendships and I will not start now.
I'm not living in a gilded cage.
