I knew a lot of secrets. Have you ever had to explain to someone their dad was not stepping out on their mom with your employee? Without explaining that the two of them are plotting to steal a trainload of cadmium?
Try explaining to an eleven year old that the reason why everyone is crying is because you finally confirmed that you're all related to blood. And get through the way that kid asks whether that was really something people weren't sure of.
It... as I said, such behavior isn't going to result in anything, so continuation is illogical.
I'm not lying. Until recently I didn't socialize much, and then there was Maine and now... You are the second person to ever hit on me that I've ever noticed.
I'm really not. I'm quiet. I don't smile much. And I shy away from people out of fear of being hurt. I'm not social, and thus no one has...
Wait... Well... there was this guy at Errera when I turned twenty-one and Meg took me. This guy... groped me. I guess that counts. And the woman the most recent time. It was too loud. I turned my aids off. She... must have asked me something, because by the time I noticed her she was shouting and insulting me.
I really never interacted with people much. I took care of kids, did grocery shopping and other chores, but mostly, until about seven months ago, I spent the vast majority of my time in my home.
How many other people did you meet before your ex? Do not lock yourself up in a lab and pine, I have seen where that road leads and it is nowhere you want to go.
Okay, if you don't want to avoid well-meaning brothers dragging you out to the bar, getting drunk, getting kicked out for fighting, and then getting arrested for breaking into the asshole neighbor's house because you thought you were just too drunk to work a key.

Yeah. I think you get as well as I do how fruitless such behavior would be.

If you want me to stop, I'll stop.

I get the picture. You don't want me to. I'll stop. Do you have to reason with a lot of people to knock shit off that makes you uncomfortable?

And you're not just doing to make me feel better?

In the face of everything it doesn't feel comfortable for me.
no subject
Or is that your way of telling me to pretend in public, and keep others from doing it too?
no subject
[Is that a thing?]
Other than you and my ex, no one has ever hit on me before.
no subject
Yes. That is a thing. That is a thing that my brothers used to do because they are asshole cockblockers.

The kind of guy people hit on.

I need to provide for my family. There isn't really much reason to head out into the world. This road is... sufficient.
no subject
Are we still on?
no subject
Yeah. We're on.
