But you're also hotheaded and prone to trouble.

...so? What's that have to do with it?

It's a good way to attract unwanted attention and let information slip...

Well, that's fine. All I really wanted to say is that the more unsafe things get in this block the harder people are gonna work to find a way to escape.

...You think that's even possible?

Haa... Well, I guess we'll see. My generation obviously didn't make it, so it's not like I can give a promise.

...I guess in that case it might've been nice to be invisible. But I'm not really the type that would have been any good to anyone anyway.

Not with that kinda attitude anyway...

*shrugs*

Yeah, well, not something I know how to fix.

Fixing's easy: catharsis and forgiveness. It's whether you can convince yourself to want it or not.

It's not easy at all.

Well, I'm not here to convince you to want it. It's no good if you'll just dismiss it out of hand.

See? Just like I said.

It's useless to even compare crimes, right? And telling you guilt is a form of selfishness won't make you feel any better. The best anyone can do is just accept everything you are but if you can't forgive yourself their efforts are gonna be pretty ineffective.

*sighs*

And how the hell do I do that?

Aah... Well first of all, have you even told anyone on your teams what you've been so depressed about?

Re: [Passing Through]

[identity profile] hacks_ur_garden.insanejournal.com 2011-08-17 09:23 am (UTC)(link)
What would be the fucking point of that?

Re: [Passing Through]

[identity profile] fill_the_blanks.insanejournal.com 2011-08-17 09:33 am (UTC)(link)
They're your most important people here. You don't have to tell every one of them, but not telling someone important to you means any time this becomes an issue you'll ignore their opinion on it automatically because they don't know the truth.

If you can't just decide not to treat it as an issue anymore then your next best bet is allowing people to forgive or accept you for you.

*this glare and silence suggests that that might in fact be the problem*

Well, it's tough when everyone comes from a crueler place than you do...

Though, y'know, personal issues from the past are a little different from being sure to toughen up here. If every blow knocks you down it's gonna be a problem no matter what. Still, if something from the past gets you, you've only got the people around you to turn to, 'cause it's not like you're at home. Pick someone understanding. If you really can't think of anyone on the team then maybe colors aren't as important as you thought.

For now I guess you've got me.
