FEARS

[bitten_notshy]

It is BDE eve and I am bored, so it feels like time for Therapy.

What are you afraid of, Fandom? What keeps you up at night?

I am afraid of succumbing to my father's heritage and turning evil and destroying this world and countless others. I am afraid of causing harm to those I have learned to care for and call friend. And I am utterly enthralled by afraid of vampires, though I have learned not all of them are evil.

I know how my future is supposed to turn out, but I'm afraid of doing something wrong and changing it. I don't want the rebellion to fail and the Empire to win.

I'm also afraid when the time comes for my son to die, I won't be able to let it happen, no matter what the cost.

What am I afraid of, pumpkin? I had the most awful nightmare the other night. A fabulous sale on Manolo Blahniks and Jimmy Choos and they had every size except mine. It was awful, sweet pea, just awful!

[bitten_notshy]

... well. It wouldn't be helpful to say "don't do that," would it?

Do you think you'll be able to keep that side of yourself under control?

[bitten_notshy]

I wouldn't be able to let someone I loved die, if I could stop it. What do you think would happen if your son lived?

I used to be afraid of never knowing real feelings before I died, but not anymore. It's all good.

I have been doing my best to learn to do so. Professor Skywalker's guidance has been of great help to me in that respect. And I think that learning to feel, while dangerous, has also given me strength to fight against my father.

[bitten_notshy]

That sounds absolutely terrible. I hope it wasn't true when you went to the shops!

[bitten_notshy]

Don't you ever worry that feelings -- mess you up, and make it harder for you to keep a clear head?

[likes_scoundrels]

I don't know. He said it was the right thing to do, but I don't know if I can believe that. There has to be another way.

Relationships. I worry that I'm not really good at them.

And while I like seeing how happy my friends back home are, it scares me a little that Danny and Delinda are in a committed relationship. Even Mike is married... sorta. I thought I would beat all of them to the altar.

Imprisonment.

Death isn't scary. I've already lived way beyond what I should have survived. But put me in a cell again, and I'll lose what I have left of my mind.

Myself. And really embarrassingly little, otherwise. (Losing Valentine. Except I already did that before, didn't I?)

[bitten_notshy]

There usually is. I hope you find it.

[bitten_notshy]

I think marriage is overrated. Enjoy freedom while you have it!

[bitten_notshy]

That's a terrifying one. And sometimes a path that breaks the law is the only right one.

[bitten_notshy]

I think the lack of an element of surprise makes it harder to be afraid of yourself. The things that are scarier are the ones you can't foresee, aren't they?

(And I still miss your sister.)

Killing again.

And right now... what Herrick and the others might be doing to Lauren.

But that's not the kind of thing I talk about.

[endsthegame]

That might be true until you do the one scariest, most horrible thing anyone could ever do.

Everything else becomes lesser, in comparison.

I miss her, too, but I'll see her again.

Money. It feels like I should have more of it tucked away for emergencies. I live in fear of running out of it.

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

Really, that's your big fear?

[stayingfrosty.livejournal.com]

Preaching to the choir on that on, mate. That's the precise reason I'm here.

[justlike_a_girl]

Yes. Have you ever had someone who up to repossess your your living room in the middle of a huge gala that was meant to show investors that there was no reason to worry?

[vanillajello]

Getting hurt. Mostly by letting people close to me,only to have them leave again.

And cracking, splitting into fifteen billion people. I've been kinda getting better about that fear, but... It's still there. Lurking.

I must confess I have to get most of my shoes custom-made, but I have found some victories during sales!
