[shaking head]

[redmarksthespot]

Whatever. It's true.

I'll make something for you.

[confuse...???]

[blueondeck]

[blueondeck]

What's the difference between me and Ahim?

[redmarksthespot]

[when did I start getting take home work]

[blueondeck]

[redmarksthespot]

[you realize you are making me try to understand my feelings]

[blueondeck]

[A thing of miracles, I know.]

[redmarksthespot]

[it's HARD]

[blueondeck]

[redmarksthespot]

[.................................. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ROMANCE??]

You want me to just talk about you for awhile?

[blueondeck]

[YOU GET LOST TO EASILY]

I want to understand what everything--

Whatever works for you. You want to talk about me? Let's talk about me.
