	[ Roxy turns to look at her again. ] Girl, you are severely underestimating your charm levels. You're just fine. I think anyone worth giving a shit about wouldn't care, in the end-- he doesn't make you bad, you know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, he doesn't! [She frowns a little and shifts.] It's more that he's a danger to others at worst, and a nuisance at best. I understand if no one wants to deal with him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Not really following: ] I don't get how he should affect how people like you. I mean, he's sleeping when you're awake... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-28 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, but... [She doesn't really know how to explain.] I'm carrying around someone volatile inside of me. Someone who probably would really hurt or even kill people, if given the slightest chance. Even if his actions aren't my fault, I still bear some responsibility because the body is as much mine as it is his. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ She takes a second to consider that. ] I dunno. I think that sounds liiiiike... total crap. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[omg.] Roxy! It's a problem! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-28 10:36 pm UTC (link)
	Not your problem. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-28 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	It is so my problem!! I just told you why! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-28 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	And I just said it sounds like bull! You're not even that tiny bit responsible for him and his crrrrrrrap. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-28 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	But- [Calliope sighs in frustration.] We're still monsters. I can't blame anyone for being afraid of us. Especially if they don't understand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-28 10:48 pm UTC (link)
	[ That wipes the grin off her face in record time. She sits up and leans towards Calliope, hugging her upper arm to her torso. ] Awwww. Awww... you're not a monster, Callie. You're just not a human, and man, anyone who judges that shit is plain old not worth your time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Armhug.] [Calliope is vaguely baffled by it, but she tries to reply calmly overall.] It's not a subjective issue, or a matter of my feelings being hurt. It's just true. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-05-28 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	No, it's not true. [ She keeps her tone soft but firm. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-28 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	[Calliope smiles at her and gently pats her arm.] [She can tell Roxy is just going to keep arguing, no matter what she says. She can appreciate what her friend is trying to say, but it just doesn't work or ring true.] Don't worry about that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ Roxy feels real bad now. It's an awkward topic and she hates that Calliope feels the way she does-- and more than that, there's that sense of powerlessness. They're underwater and the glass is cracking, there's a loud thump every second like a heartbeat, and for some reason Calliope refusing to see things another way is what makes her feel useless. ]

Ughhhh. Girl, please. I am gonna worry about my friend no matter what. But we can drop it for now. But don't think I'll go and forget.

Do you know what time it is? I can't tell just looking out the window.

	[Calliope is glad that Roxy won't push the point, but she doesn't really want her friend to worry, either. In the cherub's mind, there is nothing to worry about. Being a monster is something she's accepted and resigned herself to.] Late! [Calliope, that is not a time.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ She laughs, and releases her arm finally. ] Maybe I should make like Dirk and get my snooze on. I dunno. I don't feel too tired and nothing in this place looks too comfortable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-05-30 03:32 am UTC (link)
	[Calliope smiles, encouragingly.] The private study rooms aren't so bad. At least they're reasonably quiet, and you don't have to worry about other people coming in. I could sit with you until you fell asleep, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	retrogame 2013-06-01 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	[ She grins at her. ] Awwww. Awww, you're such a good friend. I'm not gonna bore you by makin' you watch me fall asleep, but if you'd show me the study room of legend, I'd be real appreciative. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-06-01 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, absolutely! [Calliope hops to her feet, and then pauses to let Roxy pull herself up, too.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
