[voice] an idle curiosity in the middle of the night

[maddest]

If you could make the choice to lose one memory, what would it be?

If you don't feel like sharing the details of that moment, answer this instead- if you were really given the choice, not hypothetically in the future, but today, with all the realities and consequences you face, would you let the moment go? And would it change you?

How much of our darkest moments make us what we are?

We can hope. Whose soul do you predict will light us up?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Someone utterly innocuous. Negi, maybe? One of the other sweet little things?

[thelightbringer]

Negi's not as sweet as he looks~

Killing someone doesn't count unless you mean it.

[thelightbringer]

I agree. [Passionately, in fact.]

You should never do anything unless you mean it.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

[He turns off the feed.]

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Aww. Is it over already? Damn. It was just getting good.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

[A moment or two later.]

I should take a bow.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

You and your lovely assistant, both. It's like watching Burns and Allen on Showtime.

[thelightbringer]

You put me as the assistant?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

You didn't start it, Gracie.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Now, children.

[thelightbringer]

I picked him out of a line-up.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

And decided to bicker him to death? What were the Miranda rights like on that one? 'You have the right to avoid responding with 'no you?'"

[thelightbringer]

He likes it. [Yes, he sounds just like the schoolyard bully who keeps asking you why you're hitting yourself.]

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

He likes everything.

[thelightbringer]

Actually, he--

[A slight pause]

If he did, you should be praising me for doing a good deed, shouldn't you?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I want to hear the end of that sentence.

[thelightbringer]

Let's just say I'm becoming acquainted with things you don't like.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

I could stand for some elaboration.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

So could I. I usually disguise my temper tantrums, don't I?

[thelightbringer]

Not even a little.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Oh, get a room, you two.

[thelightbringer]

A moment ago you were encouraging this.

It stopped being fun when everyone started doubletalking like I'm five and have virgin ears.
