Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?

[yeah...it's the only thing she knows. she just wanted to try this too, but...then she realizes....um...]

No! I wasn't actually offering, I...

[facepalm]

....I really should have thought that over more before opening my mouth.

[oh come on...someone was bound to.]

I take it by the way you speak, that you're young. You, have a way with words, that is, more American then English. [Must resist urge to sound like a snobby Englishman...] I just doubt your ability to take into consideration, factors that as a young American, you wouldn't consider.

Your little bit of French there just proves that, especially in a time like now.

[jamesholmes]

[He ignores it and just talks in a matter of fact voice.]

You're language, your attitude, your manner of speaking.

[justgonnaramble]

[....this really isn't something she can argue with. at all.]

I'm sure they do tell a lot about me. [she even shrugs a bit] It's how I know to be.

[jamesholmes]

[He's good at that, he really is.]

There is nothing wrong with being yourself, if it's anything besides scientific knowledge I've learned in my life it's that.

[justgonnaramble]

I agree. I'm getting to that point in my life where I'm okay with myself, and I like it.

[jamesholmes]

That is a wonderful time in your life, once you are comfortable with yourself. The world seems a much, better place besides something to curse at.

[justgonnaramble]

I think so, too. And...I spent a lot of time doing that. Cursing at everything. It didn't get me far.

[jamesholmes]

It rarely does, same with bitterness and regret. You'll go far if you've moved passed that all.

[justgonnaramble]

So would it be out of line for me to wonder if you've been there yourself?

[jamesholmes]

I have been, took me longer then the average person to get through it, but I have.

[justgonnaramble]

And you like the person you are now?

[jamesholmes]

Yes, I do believe I do, after all this time.

[justgonnaramble]

I'm very glad to hear that then.

[jamesholmes]

It's refreshing to hear such things from a young woman these days, I will say that.

[justgonnaramble]

This is what happens when I put thought into the things I say.

But...thank you.

[jamesholmes]

I figured it might be, but still the sentiment stands. But you are very much welcome Ms. Paige Matthews.
