So we all know each other's... well buried secrets.

Except, I imagine that they're still quite well buried. They all came at once - and unless you put the effort in to go back and read everyone's... it's hard to remember who said what, except the people you were really paying attention to. Especially if you were trying to control the damage ( Read more... )

leapingback through history, 500 merits in the red, the truth belongs to eddie, painting by numbers, channelling winston smith, eddie's mystery machine, eddie has a plan and its huge, world of machine breakers

Why would I stop you? You have your deal. This is why we're here. Because of that. Because of the Grand Plan. And your part in the Plan is to go back home, become Prefect, and wiggle your way into National Colour.

We can choose when we return, Eddie. I won't be long behind you.

But no. I don't think I'll be there tonight.

Re: Private needshumility September 30 2011, 21:30:05 UTC

Because... part of me wants to stay. Doesn't want to leave you, and feels guilty for it.

I guess 'please' won't make a great deal of difference, will it?

Re: Private thebestnose September 30 2011, 21:36:03 UTC

You should go. You have things to take care of. A wife. A child. Becoming a Colourman.

No, it won't. Drop it. I can't do this.

Re: Private needshumility September 30 2011, 21:42:27 UTC

But...

You're upset, Jane. I can see that, but what can I do... I don't...

I can't do this.

What exactly is the second one?

Sorry, it's not really what I'm looking for, I don't think.

...Gravity is the thing which holds people to the earth, right?

Hm, might be useful on the floaties.

You can, if you want. How... how do you have a granddaughter, but no children?

It's alright, and: perhaps they are, it's just something I take slightly personally.

Re: [Private] needshumility September 30 2011, 21:35:59 UTC

No, no, I understand.

I should have been more careful in what I said, it was quite impolite.

Re: [Private] 19centconstable September 30 2011, 22:45:43 UTC

It was a flood. These things happen.

Re: [Private] needshumility October 1 2011, 16:54:53 UTC

I wish you wouldn't say that, George.

I am afraid I cannot help you with the technology. As for children, I had a son, though he passed on a few years ago. Why the curiosity?

Re: Private needshumility September 30 2011, 22:07:12 UTC

I...

It's a little complicated.

Can I ask if you think you were a good father?

Private grand_lotus September 30 2011, 22:20:11 UTC

[Oh look it's one of the few things Iroh considers a tricky subject.]

...

Truthfully? I think it is hard for me to know, even now. I loved him very deeply, and at the time, I believed sincerely that I was a good father. It was in another role that I failed him.

Re: Private needshumility September 30 2011, 22:26:29 UTC

Oh.

Are the two roles not related?

Warden Filter rass_bestie September 30 2011, 22:59:52 UTC

Sure, anything more specific?

And no, not that I can recall.

Re: Warden Filter needshumility October 1 2011, 16:56:14 UTC

Not really, just... not harmful.

That... you can recall?

Re: Warden Filter rass_bestie October 1 2011, 19:24:40 UTC

Yes, I have an spare Ipod he'd enjoy.

I have severe amnesia, I can't remember my life after the Academy.

Re: Warden Filter needshumility October 1 2011, 20:34:52 UTC

...ipod being?

Ah. Doesn't that bother you?
