Rushing out was for the best. I had another unexpected visitor drop by that afternoon, and I can only imagine what sort of insanity would have resulted if you'd still been there.
And I'm fine. Honestly. Though "normal" seems to be an ever-changing state of being.

That sounds ominous. But yes, probably for the best. I have a feeling there are a lot of people not talking to a lot of other people right now.
And I lost track of "normal" years back. You know, maybe I shouldn't mention this, maybe it's way too indelicate, but if you ever need to talk about the James situation... I don't know. I get the sense it's ongoing--at least for him--and while I know you can take care of yourself, I'm here.

I don't think he wants people to know he's on the planet, so I won't give any specifics. But, yes, I think that would have rapidly become potentially dangerous.
...And then Roger also came by, later.
God. I have accidentally had more sex in the past forty-eight hours than I've had on purpose in almost a year.
I appreciate that you care about me, Jim. And also that you're trying not to interfere with my love-life, as it were. But I don't know if you'd be in a good position to discuss "the James situation" even if there was one. Which there isn't. We're friends, that's all.
Well, friends who were in a threesome. But you know what I mean.

... Someone I know, or know of, who no one was supposed to know was on the planet? I'm thinking something very curious.
And I'm not thinking about that.
No, I'm probably not, and I appreciate that. I just want you to have someone who is, and I don't know who that someone is, and I am in a good position to recognize that he's got it bad. But... you probably already know that.
Private to Jim Kirk:rn_chapelMay 12 2010, 00:03:15 UTC
Curious and possibly correct, depending.
Um. Well, I know what he tells me, and I guess "got it bad" is pretty close to what he's said. But I guess I sort of thought he might be overstating things. What do you mean, you're in a good position to recognize it?
Private to Jim Kirk:rn_chapelMay 12 2010, 03:59:35 UTC
Oh, it was. And also a little terrifying, though the true paranoia has only just started to set in. I'm hoping that "we were high out of our minds" will be an explanation that is acceptable to certain parties.
I guess you would recognize it, yes. Damn. I don't know what - if anything - I should do. About that. I was sort of hoping that he didn't really mean it. I don't know.

Yes. I don't want to see you (or anyone) hurt, obviously.
And maybe I shouldn't have said anything. But I thought you deserved some warning. I'd say maybe he'll get over it, but that's not very flattering to you. Just... let me know if you need me.
And I'm fine. Honestly. Though "normal" seems to be an ever-changing state of being.

Never mind, it's none of my business.

I don't know--it's not as though I really trust him, and I sort of assumed his motives were, by their very nature, ulterior. But I know that face.
