And it's really only by luck that you aren't just the victim in this.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

What do you mean?

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

You almost died?

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

...oh, right. Yeah.

Honestly, I think my behavior is mostly because it feels like it just happened all over again. It feels raw and I can't just suppress it like other memories I have that I'm not fond of.

I know that's not an excuse but...

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

You don't need an excuse...?

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

[ why is Booker so damn understanding what is going on. Is this what they mean when saying you just need to tell to the right person? He's not belittling or dismissing or trying to move past Sam's troubles. He's not trying to distract him from them either. He's just listening and tolerating Sam's self-guilt while pointing out sensible logical things to try and get Sam to ease up on himself. ]

Don't I? It's pretty bad behavior...

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

You shouldn't do it again. And if you think you're going to do it again, you should tell me or someone else before it hits that point.

But I've done similar things so I can't say I don't understand.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

Jewel already made promise in detail not to do it again. So I can't do it again even if I want to. But... I'll try and talk to you if it's not a bother...

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

[it's cute that he thinks a promise means he cannot do it again, pure]

It's fine really. And if you have that much trouble sleeping, I can put you under again.

Was the hallucinations from lack of sleep?

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

[ he likes to think he's really good at keeping promises to the point he would just be able to make himself not do it!! ]

Okay...

And, yeah, pretty sure.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

So those also shouldn't be a problem again.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

...That would actually be really nice.

[he can handle them in nightmares and whatever, but seeing things crawl around on the ship just sucks. ]

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

If you start seeing things it sounds like it's probably a sign you need intervention.

Speaking of, about my blessing. Please don't mention it to anyone else.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

... Okay, I'll keep it in mind.

I won't. Not only is it not my place, you outed yourself to help me which most people wouldn't do. [ Feel free to use it if you need to be convinced. ]

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

[nah he won't]

Good, thanks.



Anything else we need to talk about before I put responsible adult mode into a box and ideally don't touch it again for at least a month?

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

I... think I am all "responsible adult mode"-d out.

[ please put it away, Booker, damn. It's powerful. ]

... Thanks for your help, again.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

Sure. No problem. Let's not do this again.

[he will get to his feet]

Bye.

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[vapour]

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Bye. [ please show yourself out because even acknowledging this between them a second longer by getting the door for you to leave is gonna clearly trash their reputations beyond repair point. ]

Re: [Day 15 Morningish]

[thefaultinthestars]

[oh he is absolutely seeing himself out. time to never acknowledge this ever again]
