[video] late at night enough that the mask slips, for a moment

[maddest]

I would never wish for anyone to be forced to stay here, but I mourn for their loss all the same.

Human selfishness again.

There is a school of thought that says certain types of selfishness are good.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a bad school.

[thelightbringer]

Well I know you don't prefer the school of martyrs and self-sacrifice.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Self-sacrifice is selfishness.

[thelightbringer]

Yes, it is. It's also ignorance. But the people going through it at the time don't realize it.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I suppose that's true.

The only thing selfish about missing someone is if you wallow in it and do nothing.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I do try not to wallow.

So I see.

Don't berate yourself for wishing someone who made things easier was still hear. You know better than to believe those stupid cliches; 'it was meant to happen', 'it's for the best'.

You're unusually wise tonight.

Most people call it 'exceptionally bitter'.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I like that. It's sweet.

[thelightbringer]

That I'm bitter? I think you have your flavors confused, Xerxes~

I'm sure I haven't.

My hearing [read: angel mojo] is off this week. Enlighten me.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Mm, I heard.

Have you eaten?

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[thelightbringer]

Here and there. My brothers have been bringing food, or stealing it.

No tea, though.

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Then come by.

Leave the door open.
