I'd almost forgotten what it was like to be on the run.

No, I don't think so. I think you found yourself in a situation that you don't understand completely yourself. Sometimes talking it out can help you figure out what you want or need to do.

Are one-sided conversations included?

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

I think that they are. Not all the time, of course, but if there's someone you really want to talk to that's...gone, then yeah, I think it can help. Not if that's all you're focusing on, though.

Is there someone you want to talk to?

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

Kufu... I hardly want to be known as someone who speaks to the air...

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

People do it all the time. And not just crazies. It soothes people to speak to the ones they cares about when they're gone.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

Then I must be crazy if it is not a loved one I speak too~

[Private to Mukuro; unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

No, not crazy. A little weird, yeah, but who isn't nowadays?

Humans can be so very fearful about strangeness that they cannot comprehend.

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but none of us here are exactly typical humans.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

Then talking to the air is a norm for us~?

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

Well, I've been known to do it from time to time. But my own lover calls me strange, so maybe that's not a good example~

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

...I wonder how Byakuran might react were I to do the same.

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. I doubt that he'd find it odd or think you're going mad.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

Possibly because he himself is already mad, kufu~

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

That may very well be. Or it might be because he knows you by now.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

That would not stop him asking questions. Always asking questions and expecting me to answer them.

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

There's a difference between knowing someone and knowing everything about them. He knows you. Your moods, your habits, that kind of thing. What he's asking for is the details.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

That is just it: I do not want to give him details.

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

That's understandable. The question is though, do you want this to work out between the two of you?

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

How does wanting it to work relate?

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

If you want it to work, you can't hold onto one extreme while he holds onto the other. You compromise. You don't want to give details, he wants them. Instead of pulling back and forth and arguing about it, find some kind of middle ground that works for both of you.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

His idea of compromise grossly favours himself.

[Private to Mukuro; Unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

Then you need to find a way to make the compromise favorable to both of you. Give a little, but don't let him know that you're only giving him a little. That way you have the appearance of making the compromise favorable to him.

[Private to Julie; unhackable]

[mukurou69.livejournal.com]

I know that well already. I try to and he somehow outmanoeuvres me each time.

[Private to Mukuro; unhackable]

[smittenpervert.livejournal.com]

Because you're being too predictible and easy to him.
