So, because of a few things.. and people; I'm curious.

Where do your fears come from? I don't care if you say what they are and all of that - but I'm curious where they come from. When you were little, a traumatic experience - what... exactly. And did you ever face it or are you still living with it?

While we're at it; would you rather find a way

You.

brb acting oblivious

[vilf_fuckyeah]

That's odd. There's no reason to fear me. Or to.. gain fears from me.

[platycodon]

Do not make excuses Kensei Muguruma.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

I wasn't making excuses so much as stating, really.

I'd be a fucking horrible liar if I said I didn't have my fears, but I guess most of mine come from experiences.

And I'm more of a believer in confronting it directly- avoiding the situation tends to make things worse.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

Yea, avoiding these things usually doesn't make it better.

Experiences. Like just general life experiences?

[tyrantraved]

For the most part. Things I'd rather not remember at this point, mostly.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

I suppose it's good that you're more willing to face them then. You won't have to look back on them at all after that.

[noirnoshirayuki]

I would say mine have come from personal experiences. However- most of them I have overcome in time.

Though that doesn't mean they don't try to come back and frighten me once in a while. It's hard to beat back at times, but I've found my reasons as to why I do.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

I suppose they all come back sooner or later. Fears are there for a reason, right?

Reasons why they come back; you mean?

[noirnoshirayuki]

Of course, we won't grow stronger otherwise. It's part of being an individual.

Well, more like reasons I've found to keep them at bay. When the fears come, I can remind myself of why I beat it, and what for. And- who helped me there, if that's one of the causes as well.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

Sort of. A lot of people have the same fears though - but I know what you're getting at.

Seems like you've got it worked down to a system then?

[maraihi]

I think mine are normal. I don't see how I could "fix" them.

They're there to make sure we react the way we should.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

I think all fears can be faced some how. Maybe not 'fixed' but at least dumbed a bit. Unless its... I don't know. A death fear.

and what way is that?

[maraihi]

Like a fear of losing my children. Having that fear helps me protect them and watch out for them.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

...I see. But you'd do that regardless wouldn't you?

You must have a certain restraint not to let it affect you too strongly.

[stripping]

My fears come from experiences, I think. I've had to face them before.

If it were just a little fear that showed up occasionally, it would be fine to keep it. If it were something debilitating, I'd think you would have to face your fear.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

Huh. Do you feel stronger because of it?

[stripping]

...I can't say that I do, actually.

[vilf_fuckyeah]

really? Do you feel anything for having faced them?
