Hope you're all recovering alright.

Cassie and I talked after the battle and we decided to stay out of that kind of thing in the future. It's one thing to defend ourselves against some shit that comes out of the portal, it's different to get involved in a war between two countries we don't know the first thing about. We don't know the first thing about the history of those two countries, and there wasn't any damn way for us to know. In the moment we all decided to defend Atlantis because it seemed like they were the victims, but we don't know what happened before we arrived, what they might've done to provoke it. Maybe we were right, maybe we weren't.

So, next time we end up in the middle of anything like this, I'll be taking shelter and waiting it out. You all can make your own choices, but I'm done fighting any battles I don't know the reason for.

	I don't know that it would be of any use to me. She's asked me to try though, so I will. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hard to say no to her, isn't it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-06 06:21 am UTC (link)
	Yes, it is. I am not used to that feeling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kids always get under my skin. Feels somehow like [...] if children are in danger or unhappy, the world's just lost. On the flip side, if you can protect just one or find a way to make their life better, you still got something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I felt that once when I was a child from an adult. There is truth in that sentiment that I had not consciously considered. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How'd that work out for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He abandoned me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Shit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 05:41 pm UTC (link)
	I suppose I do not want her to experience the same thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra outofmyskull 2018-02-10 05:55 pm UTC (link)
	From you or me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 05:57 pm UTC (link)
	From me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra outofmyskull 2018-02-10 06:00 pm UTC (link)
	Just comes down to making choices. Trying to make the ones that are good for her. Talking to her helps me figure out what she wants from me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 06:04 pm UTC (link)
	There's that word again. Good. It isn't my strength. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	In Cassie's case, some of the good decisions mean showing her how to make her own bullets. Ain't always about morality. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 06:08 pm UTC (link)
	No, I suppose it isn't. I do not want the life I had for her, at the very least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra outofmyskull 2018-02-10 06:12 pm UTC (link)
	Teach her what you've learned, then. Whatever would keep her out of the situations you've ended up in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~And do what Stick did not.~~ I will give it a shot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra outofmyskull 2018-02-10 06:26 pm UTC (link)
	You can talk to me about it, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 06:36 pm UTC (link)
	I could. That might be easier than speaking at those meetings. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra outofmyskull 2018-02-10 06:49 pm UTC (link)
	Usually easier talking to someone you know instead of trusting strangers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 06:52 pm UTC (link)
	That is right. Pick a day, a time. We'll have coffee. I'll try to talk. Maybe you should, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra outofmyskull 2018-02-10 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	I'll try. A morning would be good. When Cassie's in class. Not picky about the day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Frank \| Elektra madseasons 2018-02-10 07:15 pm UTC (link)
	Very well. Perhaps the morning off the next meeting. (Reply to this) (Parent)
