In my stay here I have met a few people to whom I truly owe a debt of gratitude. [Soft chuckle] Now there is something I never thought that I would admit. But...it is true. At any rate, the Barge just said goodbye to two such people ( Read more... )

digging in the dirt, dogged attempt at...something, warning signs, i don't angst i smash things, got a question over here, i do not have a crush, deep thoughts, at least the plant survived, signs of change, bawww

...What the fuck. Is everybody here just a fucking pussy?

[Because CLEARLY Richie has no reason at all for this entry to hit home. Nooooope none. His trolling is NOT RELATED TO FEELINGS AT ALL.]

[The auditory accompaniment to this face comes through the speakers. It sounds like a cross between a giant wolf snarl and Satan's drain backing up.]

[voice] notafuckingnut September 3 2011, 03:25:38 UTC

[Erm. Whut. Have more than a few beats of silence as Richie tries to figure out what exactly just happened.]

...'Scuse me?

I'm sorry, that was vampire lord for "shut up, bitch."

Yes.

I won't pry if it is a private issue. I am merely trying to figure out if there is a way to recover from such a loss...or if recovery is even respectful of those lost.

19centconstable September 4 2011, 23:13:57 UTC

Well, mourning is an important and respectful part of loss, but moving on is just as much so. It's what those whom we have lost would want of us.

Biff talked me from trying to jump off the Barge. And Persephone taught me an awful lot about respecting women. I...will miss them, but I am privileged to have known them.

[What is this? an actual fucking response?]

...Here on the barge? Or in the lives we left behind?

[Private] feels_no_love September 4 2011, 03:08:00 UTC

Whatever you feel like talking about. It may seem strange for me to bring this up, but...I'm not used to feeling the absence of people like this.

Re: [Private] expectremorse September 4 2011, 03:40:02 UTC

Not used to it how?

I mean in terms of...You've never felt like that?

[He might sound slightly disgusted, horrified even.]

[Private] feels_no_love September 4 2011, 03:51:25 UTC

I am not proud of it, Detective, but...perhaps you may remember that when I came here, I was...somewhat different. Probably worse company, for that matter.

I could feel barely anything then; I was hollow. I am starting to not be hollow now, so yes, now I feel those absences, the regret, and even the gratitude of owing someone who is now gone. Probably not as strongly as a living man, but...I do.

No. I had no family and no loved ones left. They had all died or gone. [Note also that he doesn't answer the rest of the question. He just doesn't deal with it and figures everyone's going to go eventually.]

She's happier gone.

[He heard breaking things. He chooses not to remark on it.]

[Private] feels_no_love September 4 2011, 03:09:38 UTC

I believe you. My regret is selfish. It's still there by the gallon, but it is selfish.
