OOC: Right.
BIC: "I'm sorry, I, I just... Not the best of moods. Situation doesn't permit anything else." He never got to be in control. He never even got an equal partnership. Archon– Consistent subordinate.

"I find myself rather used to 'love' there meaning 'intimate subordinate', really. I know, it's not supposed to be like that..." It had been that way with Linx, although he was trying to fix that, and it had been that way with Auric...

OOC: Back
BIC: You don't need to be subordinate with me... Remember the last time we had "fun"? I was happy for you to take charge, and I'm hapy for you to do so again and again...

"I don't seem to be that good at it... Taking charge, I mean." I mean, that injury...

If you're worried about that injury, it was an accident... You'd be more careful the next time, I know it.

"Meaning paranoid... I can't believe I actually did that. I've taken damage myself, and dealt some by accident, from time to time, but that was terrible. I really haven't had much experience with this..." If it hadn't sunken in already. Archon had some skill but it wasn't as an equal.

Then we learn from our mistakes and carry on. That means less accidents and more fun. Never look back at what's gone wrong, only what's gone right. Words my mother told me this morning...

"Your pro-optimism message of the day?" Sounds very Zahi. "I'd love to carry on. I just don't like the part where I'm making mistakes that need to be learned from... Especially mistakes as damaging as the one I inflicted on you."

Nope, just some words of wisdom I asked for... I was feeling a bit down this morning, so yeah... She gave me some words to think about.
**Looking directly at Archon for a moment, her expession softened slightly.**
We all make mistakes my love... Don't dwell on them and they'll go away.

"Yeah... I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but I don't dwell on them, to the best of my ability, and they do go away, but it seems it's just to make way for the next ones in line." One problem after the next... Archon found himself facing one problem after another. No time to enjoy himself.

Only because you let them be... Don't think of them as mistakes, but learning experiences insted... Dad's words that time, but from years ago...

"You're probably right. Now, let me just go change the way I think about everything and maybe I'll swing by the shop and pick up some flour while I'm at it," Archon replied sardonically, his voice fractured with bitterness. "I have no idea why it is I think like this. But I do. Not my idea. It's a mistake, even if I tell myself otherwise. It's my fault, even if I tell myself otherwise. I don't really listen to myself."

Would it be your fault if I tripped on a rock when we were walking? No, it wouldn't. Things happen, no matter how hard we try to prevent them, and feeling guilty isn't going to help you get over it.

"Right, I'm telling myself that... My feelings are tearing away from my rational thought."
OOC: Dinner. Later.
