[A very ecstatic-looking Melinoe is back to her normal self, but wearing the far too big clothes that she'd borrowed. On some women, they might look sexy. On her, she feels ridiculous, but you couldn't tell...]

[yelling] I'M ME AGAIN!

At different times. Hades was recently, when we were both affected by Khaos's game for some time.

What are your intentions toward me, Melinoe?

My only intention was for you to learn what it was like to be happy and to be happy. To learn more about yourself since you are stuck in this human body like we all are.

I admit that I would like to see if a relationship for us is possible, not just work and general pleasantries. But it isn't something I want to force you to do. I've already opened a rather large bag of things that you weren't used to and did not particularly want when they happened.

I feel selfish at times.

Tell me, once more, why you believe I am capable of happiness. I will not be angry with you, whatever your response.

Also tell me: what does a relationship entail?

Because, Phonos, I have seen your compassion in the work that you must do, that is your true calling. Because I have seen times where you do, even in the slightest and it is too often brief, have experienced some level of joy. You have feelings. You have passion of varying degrees within you. You deserve to experience happiness...

Before I answer that question, I want to know what you think it entails.

Two individuals giving too much of themselves to each other, worrying more about the other's happiness and fulfillment than their own. It involves sharing every part of their lives and accepting the other without criticism-- or perhaps with, I am not certain about that. The two are expected to be considerate, at least partially codependent, and passionate with each other. There must also be some level of commitment and intimacy. Physical attraction is important, as is sexual expression. The progression of relational steps over time, inevitably ending in co-habitating, marriage, and possibly children.

You're quite thorough. And yes, that is exactly what it entails, but all these things come from within because you want that person. Because you need them to be safe and happy, even when the worst is knocking at the door. All that comes from within.

I only know what I do because I have observed, because I have had conversations with those who follow me. I cannot make you feel things you do not. I can only try to help you understand the things that you do feel, even if I am not the thing that moves you emotionally.

...I am a way with you that I am not with others. I do not know what it is, nor do I understand it. That said, I am incapable of and unwilling to fulfill all of the previous requirements I detailed. If that is what you need desire need, then you must look elsewhere.

Then why What was it all for

As you wish, Phonos. This will no longer be an issue for either of us.

I had believed we had resolved any issues we had. What is it that will "no longer be an issue for either of us?"

Let's just say that I had foolishly hoped for more than I should have, even though I knew what I should have expected. Especially after that night.

There will be no more talk of feelings, emotions or the like. You'll live your life the way you wish to, and I'll live mine. Work will be as it should be.

Because I cannot give you everything you want, you will have nothing to do with me outside of a professional capacity?

Forgive me, Phonos, for being a bit hurt by all that's gone on just for you to tell me that I need to move along. I'm going to need a little time to mend, and honestly, a professional relationship may be all that I can tolerate for a time. I cannot just spring back as though nothing has happened. I thought you wanted things neutral, and that is about as neutral as it can be.

I know you cannot give me everything I would ever want, and I would never ask you of something you cannot provide. It's my own fault for letting it get as far as it had, and for being selfish enough to think that there might have been more. There is no blame here but to myself.

I told you to move along if everything I detailed is what you need, as I am not capable of providing all of those traits, behaviors, and emotions at this time. That is your choice.

I would never deny the things that have happened between us and I have told you that I am different with you than with others.

You contradict yourself. Either you are asking more of me than I am capable of and it is your error, or you wish only to ask for what I am capable of and will allow me the time to endeavor it.

And you have contradicted yourself more times than I can count during this entire situation.

Tell me what you want, Phonos. While those are things that would be nice to have in a relationship, those are also things that happen over time. They are also not the be-all end-all of a relationship. I've never had one beyond friendship and family, and everyone is different. What I know I've learned from being on the outside.

Tell me what you want.

I want simplicity. I want to be returned to the past, when I was spirits of Murder, Killing, and Slaughter. When things were natural, known, and distinct. I want logic.

Here and now, I only know that I do not want any less of you than I have now.

We all want to go home. Some more than others. It's less lonely here To the way we are supposed to be.

I agree. I don't know what it is that we have, but you're a part of it, and that's what I want.

I am willing to maintain.. whatever it is that we have, so long as you will be patient with me and not continually endeavor to force more than I am ready for or capable of.
