[ So Vanitas has been terribly frustrated for the last few days trying to figure this out himself. Unfortunately, he isn't really equipped to come to the answers on his own. ]

Normally I wouldn't bother with things like this, but it would appear that all my other options are exhausted or unavailable.

A little while ago I found myself experiencing some strong urges. I can't say that they are entirely unfamiliar, but the circumstances and conditions are different. Wanting to throttle someone and make them pay is nothing new, but because they hurt someone I am acquainted with is. So I suppose my question there is why. This person is perfectly capable of handling it themselves so why is it that I also want to?

Which brings me to the second issue since this is all tied to the same situation. The look this person had on their face? I didn't like it and I don't want to see it again. That is new and I don't know what that means or what it is at all.

This is probably a waste of time, but I can't figure it out. So here we are.

[ tl;dr: Vanitas might actually care about someone - or at least have something of an urge to protect them - but he can't recognize it at all because pfft he's not the sort that does that, right? ]

you say that like it can't work for you too but do you know that for certain?

[darkcharge]

Fairly certain, yes.

[callmeven]

but not totally certain!

[darkcharge]

Certain enough.

[callmeven]

coming from someone who doesn't realize that they care about someone that's pretty rich

[darkcharge]

i don't need to hear that from you.

[callmeven]

wait what???

what does that mean?

[darkcharge]

[ Oops. ]

It means I'm not sure I want advice from the brat who didn't realize dogs couldn't have chocolate.

Some things are just not as obvious to some. None of this is obvious to me so I have to work through it on my own terms.

[callmeven]

that's not common knowledge okay! a lot of people don't know that!

I guess that makes sense...

if a lot of this is new to you then it's a good thing you have people who care about you around

[darkcharge]

Then maybe they should open a book and educate themselves.

Only time can really tell on that last part. I don't exactly have a great record for people sticking around.

[callmeven]

sorry I don't read books specifically about dog allergies!

maybe it'd help if you didn't sound so rude

[darkcharge]

I am what I am. There's nothing else I can be so either take it or leave it.

[callmeven]

people can change!

[darkcharge]

Yes, they can. However what happens after this change? What if they no longer recognize themselves?

[callmeven]

then it just means they should take it as an opportunity to relearn themselves again!

change can be scary but it's not always a bad thing

[darkcharge]

Augh. That is so optimistic that I think I actually will become sick.

[callmeven]

don't be a weenie

[darkcharge]

Whatever, puppy-dog. Just go and chase your tail or something.

[callmeven]

[this sounds really familiar...]

YOU'RE the one asking for advice, you know!

[darkcharge]

I don't want it if it's going to come from losers. Like you.

[callmeven]

wh

I'm not a loser!

[darkcharge]

Oh most definitely.

[callmeven]

you don't even know me!
