Is it so complex? To want to be wanted?

[girlybruiser]

I think I'm just overthinking things.

[photophobic]

If you're asking me about my feelings in order to better understand your own? Yes. Almost certainly.

You already know what you feel. It isn't what, or even why. The real question you should ask.

What do your feelings tell you to do.

[girlybruiser]

To simply enjoy the time we'll have together.
It's hard not feel a little overwhelmed sometimes by these new feelings. We have a... complex history already.

[ Where murder was involved. ]

[photophobic]

But this person feels the same way. About you.

[girlybruiser]

Yes?
Yes!

[photophobic]

Well, that is fortunate. Considering how I may have to destroy anyone who causes you harm.

[girlybruiser]

That isn't necessary!
He's very kind to me!
It's a complicated history like I've said, but he's a better person now.

[photophobic]

He's a reformed monster, then? This complicated person of yours. Interesting.

[girlybruiser]

I wouldn't call him a "monster".

[ Despite all he's done. ]

I don't think he ever was one, despite the unforgivable things he did. It's not an excuse, but he's suffered quite a lot.

[photophobic]

Is that what it takes, to make the distinction? The ratio of suffering caused to suffering endured?

[Just a... completely unrelated curiosity. yep.]

In any case. I am pleased to hear you have found someone who cares for you.

[girlybruiser]

No, it's just...

[ She's not quite sure how to phrase it. ]

It's strange to think about, but I don't believe I ever took him for a monster. An enemy, someone I couldn't trust? Yes.
Monster never crossed my mind honestly.

[photophobic]

But you trust him now.

[girlybruiser]

I do. It took some time, but I do.
