We need to talk. Not whatever my blubbering mess was last night.

But I would understand if you do not want to.

You picked a good day.

I'm quite glad to hear that. I'm off at midnight, though. Is that far too late?

[Filter: Melione]

[pornpoet.livejournal.com]

Nope! Are you alright?[gone] In fact you've set us up for a perfect song cue!

[Filter: Erato]

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

Oh? How's that then?

[Filter: Melione][Voice]

[pornpoet.livejournal.com]

[And we have singing.]

Whats the time?
Well it's gotta be close to midnight
My body's talking to me
It say,'Time for danger'

[Filter: Erato] Oo, 'Rent'!

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

I'm... not familiar with the tune, but it could be very appropriate.

A drink sounds good.

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

Just promise me that you won't allow me to do anything incredibly stupid.

[Filter]

[gifted-sight.livejournal.com]

I'll promise, but no guarantee after I've had a few.

[Filter]

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

No flashing, at least? Or dancing on a table?

[Filter]

[gifted-sight.livejournal.com]

Alright, that I can definitely promise. Will you return the favor? Not the flashing bit...just don't let me do anything stupid.

Then talk.

I never, ever meant to upset you. I chose to be brave and do something that I never thought I would have a chance to do. And my becoming flustered was my fault. It was never you. I simply did not take my time to understand you. I thought I knew you well, or reasonably so.

I am sorry that my actions and words frustrated you so. I do wish for your happiness, Phonos, in whatever way that's best for you.

I am not upset. You are correct that you do not know me. I will not find happiness in this life; what I have found is enough.

For what it's worth, I do care for you. I am far from perfect, and I do not try to be. I only wish that things would have turned out differently, and that I had known more about your mortal self than I did before I decided to become brave. This mortality has changed all of us in some way. I just did not see it right away in you.

So, that's that, then. I'll try not to interrupt your work any more than absolutely necessary.

I do not understand. What is it that you saw in me?

Filter

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

I believe that a big part of it is that you do have compassion for those that are taken from the mortal coil by you. I can tell in the work that you do as a mortal. You were concerned about missing something with someone you were working on. I have also been told by some of the ones who follow me that their death was quick; that they did not suffer.

I have enjoyed our chats about the mundane as well, whether they be about work or just everyday things. You are a far more comforting presence to be around than most may consider Murder to be.

You may not see these things in yourself, Phonos, but I do.

What is it you wish had turned out differently? What is it you wish you had seen in me before.. it? Why do you wish to avoid me?

I believe you are wrong, Melinoe, but I want to understand.

I wish that I had not reacted as I had to what was my first kiss and that it would have been a better experience for you. I wish that I had known the side of you that I experienced after I failed miserably at explaining my actions and how I felt--though I cannot blame you in the slightest for your reaction. I would have tried to explain everything far better than I had--however my emotions and thoughts were simply everywhere. Still, that's no excuse. I made a situation that must have been awkward for you already become worse.

I do not wish to avoid you--Quite the contrary. I only want you to have your space and be comfortable.

I am wrong about many things, Phonos. There is the occasion, however, that I am right about some things.

What is it that you want then, relevant to me?

Filter

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

Your happiness above all else. I care for you. I want you to be happy, even though this mortal life is difficult on us all. I am finding more and more it's the little things that can make the most difference.

You may not believe it's possible for you, but I believe with all my heart that it is. Sometimes believing in oneself is the most logical solution there can be, especially when the rest of the world makes very little sense and you begin thinking that you are quite mad...

[unbiaseddeath.livejournal.com]

You are wrong. I will never find affection here. Stop speaking as if I have any opportunity for happiness.

I am content to be what I am.

Filter

[meli-mollifies.livejournal.com]

You won't if you keep telling yourself that you're going to fail before you've even begun. And I've tried, at least...

However, if you are content to be as you are, then that is more than many people can say. That of itself is admirable.

You know nothing, Melinoe.
