Who: Noric and Xavier

When: Year 185, late spring (and onwards)
What: married life

[In the kitchen, Noric shouts through the door into the next room.]

Xavier, either you move this pile of books from where they are, or they will tragically find themselves knocked into the fire.

Your life experience dictates you should hide in your room?

[snaps at]

Shut up.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I'm just curious.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

You're invasive.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I'm trying.

[winces]

Noric, wait.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

What do you want?

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I just want to help.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

Then learn to stop sticking your nose into every little thing I do or don't do.

[goes back to his room]

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Why do I even bother. [looking at his door] He's no different than the rest.

[bleeding a lot of depression and grief again. and you'd thought he'd been improving, too.]

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

[sigh, emotions, sigh good intentions]

[knocks on his door again] Noric. Do you want to talk?

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

No.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

You're upset.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

[he sure is.]

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

It might help to... talk about it, Noric.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

Why? You don't even understand what the problem is.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

[tightly]

That doesn't mean I don't know exactly how you feel.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

So you just want to get rid of the feeling. Is that it?

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

You're twisting my words. I said it before and I'll say it again. I want to help.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

Nothing will help this.

Re: [Year 186, fall, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

[sigh]

You're traumatized. Understandably. But do you really want to live this way?
