Game 140

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 229, noonish
What: [On the throne today is a smiling youth, face ringed by black curls. He has a harp-like instrument in his lap and a pen behind his ear. It's been a while since any have seen him, but, perhaps, to the oldest and most keen observers here, he seems perhaps a touch thinner than last time. The Arena is not terribly decorated for his appearance, indeed, if not for the statue sitting there, one would not be sure this was really a call at all.]


Good afternoon, duckies, good afternoon! Who's ready for some wholesome (and platonic!) self-exploration and completely non-fatal fun, hmm? I know I certainly am.  Yes, I'm sure you've all been having just unbearable amounts of fun, but you know, let's just- . . .


[clears his throat]


Ahem. Sorry, I was saying, let's just slow it down.  Maybe, oh, I don't know, talk about our feelings a while.

((Technically, yes, this is a loser game, but anyone can play.))

I'm not deserving of any kind of person over another. That's... an arbitrary distinction. I may get on more easily with certain types but it is not indicative of what I deserve or what you should feel you have to be like... I'm thankful for what you've already been doing. You put honest effort into it and seek little ways to ease the strain on me as often as you're able. How is this the behavior of someone who doesn't meet up with what I "deserve?"

That you feel you have to apologize to me for being yourself... [shakes his head...] What meaning would it have if you were the same as them? Loss isn't fixed by replacing it with something similar... I would be happier if you did your best just because you enjoyed it, that you felt accomplished doing it, and not because you feel as if you have to make up for being somehow less.
