i'm just glad to hear from you at all
have you gotten to talk to darcy
she like
usually goes to you about this stuff
i mean its whatever i know im pushy and focus too much on feelings and shit so no surprises there
no subject
Honestly, I don't know how much she would tell me
I was on
Ill terms, let's say
With Skulduggery before this
And I'm on poor terms with most of the others still aligned with him.
And most of those who feel hostile are also hostile to Darcy.
I don't know where I stand.
I appreciate your focus on feelings. When tensions are this high, it's necessary to be sensitive to the feelings of others.
no subject
he seems okay if a little blunt someimes
i dont know about his ideas for dealing with the captain but i mean
that doesnt mean i dont want to see darcy
i'm not going to be hostile to her just because her dad has a weird fling with the captain
but i dont know if shed believe that so
no subject
Just give Darcy space. Everyone's been demanding her attention. Even if you mean well, I doubt she'll welcome you joining them. If she wants to be left alone, all we can do is respect that.
Aside from that,
How have you been holding up?
no subject
he seems to be a little bit biased about how he can totally change just because the guy did him one favor he actively wouldnt do for anyone else
thats the thing i guess
im kind of feeling like
lonely i guess
mostly hopeless
saw a bunch of people die and i cant help the feeling that half of them came back wrong
so i guess im glad youre talking to me
After a pause:
im sure youve got way more to deal with though like
im sorry for whining that sounded really fucking selfish
no subject
I can't speak for the others who were killed but truthfully I feel I had the easier part in all of it.
The dead are dead. It's the living who are left behind to grieve.
There are many people who deserve to die. But there is no crime terrible enough to be punished with grief.
...
What do you mean came back wrong?
no subject
i just had a weird nap in void space when i died and left you guys with the mess
only fair i get my half of it now
sorry
didn't mean to freak you out
its not like possessions or anything
its just like darcy avoiding me and eddie being so quiet
and my dads have been weird since johnny died
i think they were upset and just didnt want me to know about it
but everythings so out of sync and i dont know what i can do
no subject
That isn't what I meant
No one should have to suffer grief.
It's a terrible thing.
I don't know Eddie, but have you spoken with your fathers?
My guess would be that they're reluctant to burden you with their concerns
But if that's worrying you clearly it's having the opposite effect.
no subject
not about what went on
i can tell they dont want to tell me whats happening
and tbh they probably all have different ideas about whats going on
i dont want to bug them with my own stupid thoughts about everything
no subject
He doesn't have any answers.
Talk to them.
They care for you. I'm sure they're worried about you, as well.
If you can sense they're hiding something from you, likely they can sense the same from you. And if you wish that they would be more direct with you, likely they wish the same.
