pretend there's a subject here

It's been awhile since this kind of therapy was offered so we do it now. Tell me a secret OF YOURS, Fandom. Tell me something no one else knows. Tell me something you haven't said out loud to anyone yet. And if you don't have a secret, well then, confess something truthful that might not be a secret but you'd still like people to know!

I'm glad that circle worked itself out.

It's not you. But people here don't like what I can do and him reacting like that just... makes it a bit worse, I guess. Trusting people. I'm already banned from using most of my other skills here. He told me 'bout killing Ravens and stuff. That's when I slipped up.

... I can't imagine it, honestly, and most of what I could say isn't sympathetic, not 'cause I don't think it's horrible and awful--'cause I do--but because there's nothing for me to say but 'at least it's over' and that's trite and ridiculous.

It's hard when you let your guard down, trust someone, and then find out that they're not okay with some of the pieces of you. I wasn't there for a lot of the mess with the Ravens, but I heard about most of it, I think. Those were pretty dark times, and that might be why it's a sore spot for him.

It's okay. I mean, there isn't a lot to say. It makes for awkward conversation on so many different levels. And I'm not sure what any of it means, or why I do want to talk about it, which is unnerving. Ugh.

Did you at least have fun at the party? I'm sorry you'd had a rough night before.

It's just weird, I don't know, back home it's not exactly common knowledge but enough of the clans know about it that it's not really a surprise either. My family--we're first in the village in espionage 'cause our methods aren't... orthodox.

Reno doesn't like mind control.

Maybe because, in talking, you can move past it a bit more?

I did have fun at the party! Even though I crashed and burned the next day between the booze, the excitement, and the lack of sleep.
