[AFTER CHECKING ON DOLPHINS gosh this sure seems like a good time to go check on his FAAAAAAAAAVORITE LIZARDS--]

[only BAM. One second you see him running head first to their dorm, the next second he's bouncing waaay back into a pile of rocks]

[wat is this trickery \e_e/]

--what the heck was that?!

[shakes his head]

Yuuko-san told me once that the only free exchange in life is that of "feelings.'

I know. Everything else has a price.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm. That means you don't have to pay us back for us loving you. You aren't a burden.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
But... I cause a lot of worry and trouble. And I don't give anything back for that.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
And really, worry is a lot more selfish than love, when you come down to it.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not selfish. It comes with caring for others.

Then there's no reason why Syaoran can't accept those feelings, right?

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-22 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
And if those feelings are hurting others?

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Because I don't think we mind the hurt of worrying.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
It's not that.

I want to give others something other than 'worry'. They said it helps when I 'try hard' but I don't know what that means.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
It means you're doing the best that you can do, as best you can. Nobody has any right to ask for more than that.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
They never would.

But I don't know what it is that I am supposed to try so hard at.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
I ... I guess I don't know, honestly.

[pause]

Could you teach me how to use a sword?

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
[nods]

Father taught me how a long time ago, but I've forgotten just about all of it.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
I can try, though I don't know if I am a suitable teacher.

It would probably be a good idea to make you a wooden practice sword to start.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
[n-nods]

Swinging around live steel would be a little ...

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Dangerous. It's also heavy. You would probably want something lighter to start.

[identity profile] ghostduster.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. I hadn't thought of that.

[identity profile] time_andagain.insanejournal.com 2011-02-23 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
If you haven't done that sort of thing in awhile it may be a good idea. And please think of what kind of sword you would like to use.
