...because...you can learn kindness. You can train yourself in it. Hide behind it. Kindness can be a lie so easily. ...too easily.

Anger is never a lie. It's not a choice. It's a reaction. It can be buried, hidden away...you can reject it or control it. But you don't choose it.

Then everyone can start with that. They can learn that when you're not being subtle something's wrong, and you can learn how to be a little less subtle when you need to.

And hell, that much I could probably actually help with.

[He has never denied that he has the subtlety of a brick covered in neon lights.]

Re: RAGE

[fuhrinkaed]

[okay but.]

[what if I hug the tiny.]

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...

Heh.

Didn't realize people had such a hard time with kindness. I thought it was just...natural.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

But I was hoping....hoping it would be enough...

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[How quickly do you approach?]

Re: LIFE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[She pauses.]

....I will.

Re: LIFE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Re: RAGE

[fuhrinkaed]

[not fast at all. I don't want to scare her.]

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Good call.]

[Because she's tense at first, looking at him uncertainly.]

[Do you still go for it?]

Re: LIFE

[showyouthesight]

You bet! Especially thanks to Haru.

Re: LIFE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Eh? What did poolboy do? Was it farther along?

Re: LIFE

[showyouthesight]

Well, I think it has to do with whatever he did here.

[ He is looking around the room for any signs of... flooding... ]

Re: LIFE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Yeah, no, the room is still half flooded. Haru is a WINNER.]

[Also you know those mutated four eyed mermaid cats? They seem to be in the water now, but at least they appear alive.]

....is it water changes?

Re: LIFE

[showyouthesight]

[ Alive is a good thing. Maybe. I don't know. ]

Ah, as far as I know... Something about you being more comfortable with it now.

Re: LIFE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[It's not a....bad thing....?]

....yes, there is that. Kinda a surprise.

Re: LIFE

[showyouthesight]

It sounds like a good one though.

[dirtydoll]

It's not. It's...easier, for some people than for others. But people are too often selfish...and cruel.

Kindness has to be learned. It has to be taught.

Re: RAGE

[fuhrinkaed]

[...yeah.]

It's okay. I won't hurt you.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

....

[She stays still, waiting.]

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

....I wonder who taught me.

I'm just....I'm so MAD about everything. None of it's FAIR. It's not like I wanted a lot. My family, a few friends, just allowed to live something like a normal life.

But I wasn't even allowed to feel safe.

Where did I even learn to be kind....?

Re: RAGE

[fuhrinkaed]

[>HUG]

I know it's hard.

But I know you can do it.

Re: LIFE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I...think so. Confusing, but good.

Re: RAGE

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[She's tense for several moments.]

[Before she melts against him and slowly moves her hands around him.]
