* { i think a lot of it that i was scared. and…. actively trying to push people away, i guess? }
* { i didn’t like being awake. i didn’t like being aware of things again, but i figured that if i had to stay awake, i could at least try to actively go after the big threats in the void. }
* { and maybe that if i was too aggressive about it, maybe i’d be forced back into being dormant. or. something. i don’t know. i wasn’t happy back then and it’s still hard for me to not want to go back to not being actively around. }
* { i’d like to clarify that we weren’t “kissing asses”, at any point. we’d been trying to avoid conflict. }
* { there were a couple people who lived here who made some particularly rude comments towards geist, and i’ll admit, it was wrong of us to say nothing – neither of us hated him at that point, but as more time went on past that it just got harder for flaps to come talk to him about it. }
* { those people don’t live here anymore, though, and i’d rather not delve into who they were or what was said. }
* { as for why i haven’t talked to him myself – what would i even say? i joined the chat and as soon as he saw he voiced his disdain for me, it’s not like i can just go “hey i’m sorry i killed you twenty some-odd times” }
* { he hates me for what i’ve done, and what i am, and what i have the ability to do. and i don’t blame him for that. i want to talk to him, yeah, but nothing i say would affect how he feels about me. }
