On being picked up.

This? This could never work out. You do realize that, right? Not only have you been on an extensive hiatus, all of your dusty muses can attest to that, but you're not even sure of this yourself.

Are you? No. Didn't think so.

My mind. It's not a place you really want to be digging around. It's muddy, clouded... No one needs me in any sort of game. I'm needed in Hell's Kitchen. There, I can do good and not be used as some sort of puppet. I'm not your play thing to get excited over because you finally got that itch.

Any of this getting through to you? I doubt my banter makes any of this better. Probably only fueling the fire.

A little slow on the uptake, but he gets there eventually.

[haventearnedit]

And how soon is eventually?

[underachievement]

Well you figured out the best way to shake them off is to try and shut up. I think you've got it from there.

In order to be left alone is to silence myself... At least until he moves on to something else? Maybe something with a little more shine. Though I have a small itch that this won't end so easily.

No shit. [ still talking, so. ] Same boat. Drink?

I've found that in many instances, the Fates bring us to where we're needed, in whatever form or method that may be.

It may at first seem as if we're puppets set to dance for the amusement of these "players," but in my experiences, I've always seem to find myself somewhere or doing something that allows me to help others.

[For extrasensory benefit: Diana's voice is warm, pleasant and while even in tone, it's undeniable there is emotion there- probably more than she realizes she gives away. Her heart beats true, if a little stronger than the average woman of her height and build. She wears no perfume, but there's a hint of honey from her shampoo, and something akin to petrichor that seems to cling to her naturally.]

I keep telling my Mun to just pack it in. No one likes us, no one wants to play with us. I have to work a lot, covering shifts for other senior staff that are taking 2 week vacations.
