	I hate finding out things about my relationship from other people. Strangers, at that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I didn't ask for them to tell you! I wasn't ready! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So, if you don't want me to find things out, maybe you should stop telling everyone and their mother every little thing! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hell yes that's part of what this is about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steph riddlethem 2014-02-02 10:06 am UTC (link)
	Personally? I don't care if that anon told you what I was thinking. I said it because I was feeling good. Proud of what we are. So, fine. I'm sorry some random person told you, but if you had a bad reaction to it then I'm sure as hell glad it wasn't to my damned face. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steph blondebat 2014-02-02 10:08 am UTC (link)
	Why do you keep fucking presuming that I'm going to have a bad reaction? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steph riddlethem 2014-02-02 10:10 am UTC (link)
	Am I wrong? The way you're acting indicates you were not over the moon about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm scared! I'm allowed to be scared! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: eddie/steph riddlethem 2014-02-02 10:12 am UTC (link)
	I'm fucking scared, too! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm scared you don't want it like I do. That it'll make it worse. That the forces of Gotham will tear it down the second we try for something real. Something normal.

I'm scared, baby. I'm shaking just thinking about it. But, I want it. I can't live in that place alone. Not after these past few months. I want you. Is that too much? If it is I'll back off, you know I will.

I'm scared of that, too. I'm scared that we're not supposed to have something this good. That if we keep moving and growing, soon Gotham and this goddamn door is going to catch up and realize we've been off the hook for too long. What if we can't take it? What if we aren't supposed to do all of this? At least in this limbo, maybe the universe won't catch onto how real this is and fucking ruin it because no one is allowed to be happy in Gotham.

[Eddie's upset. He's actually not that far away from Stephanie's apartment, so he starts walking in a random direction. The cursor is gone for a while as he walks. Eventually he stops somewhere at a quiet coffee shop. He orders a coffee. Places the weird root on the chair across from him and sits down to read the comment.]

That anon? Told me that all love ends with loss and the question you have to ask yourself is if it's worth it anyway.

	[In the interim, she's gotten really upset. Crying might be happening. Speaking to that anon before had calmed her down about the whole thing, but she feels awful again. When he finally responds, she stares at it for a few minutes before the cursor starts moving.] S/he told me that if I believe in fate, that this is just fate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's not fate. We work hard to make this work. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Too fucking hard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't care about that. I don't want something easy. Easy gain is easily taken away. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
