this doesn't surprise you at all of course :)atheoryofmindDecember 30 2010, 06:20:56 UTC
Tsume and Toboe. Tsume does not understand why this puppy likes him so much, especially since he's not very nice to be around. He has to know why: "I don't get it. Why do you hang around me, huh?" (hint: maybe I'm pushing it, but I think that would be a perfect opening line...) Toboe, being his good-natured and understanding self, tries to explain.

“She doesn't like me.”
“What?”
“Catherine. She doesn't like me.”
“Why would you say that?”
“I think she made it pretty clear the first time I met her.”
“She was being protective.”
“Overprotective, is more like it.”
“Oh, don't take that tone. You would have done the same for any of your sisters, I'm sure.”
“Well, of course - !”
“Point proven.”
“That doesn't change the fact that she doesn't like me. Still.”
“Can you blame her? Every time you show up, you whisk me away.”
“But the war is over, it isn't like you're going to die at any given moment now.”
“I don't know about that. Your bedroom games can get quite out of hand sometimes.”

“Are you insane?”
“Possibly, but that's not the topic at hand, Lex.”
“Why would you want to go looking for Demona? Last time I checked, you were going out of your way to avoid her.”
“A lot of time has passed since then - ”
“Maybe for you.”
“ - and things change.”
“She doesn't.”
“She can.”

“I don't get it. Why do you hang around me, huh?”
“What do you mean?”
“Don't play dumb with me. We both know I'm not exactly the best thing for you, or anybody else for that matter.”
“You're strong, and brave, and you've been there for me ever since we met.”
“I haven't wanted to be. You just can't seem to take a hint!”
“That doesn't change the fact that you've still been there.”
“...”
“If you really wanted to Tsume, you could have left me behind any time you wanted. Could have left us all behind. But you didn't, and you won't.”
“What makes you so sure?”
“Instinct.”
