Are You Two Having Some Sort Of Strange Human Thing That You Can’t Follow What I’m Saying? (simi)

There Will Always Be A Part Of You That Misses Her. You'll See Something That Reminds You Of Her And Want To Tell Her About It, Only To Realize She's Not There Anymore. Then You'll Feel Her Loss All Over Again. (ravyn) You're Not Helping Me, Ravyn. (jack) I Know, Buddy. But You Will Eventually Make Peace With Yourself, And That's The Most Important Thing.

Shamefully, All Of Us Have Wanted Revenge On Someone At Some Point For Something. I've Lived Since Before Man And Buffalo Roamed This Small Planet. I Have Survived The Beginning, Bloom, And Death Of Countless Enemies, Civilizations, And People. And The One Truth I Have Learned Most During All Of These Centuries Is The Old Japanese Proverb. If You Sit By The River Long Enough, You Will See The Body Of Your Enemy Float By.

Well, I Guess I’m Just Not As Special As You Are. (urian) No One Knows Their True Mettle Until It’s Been Tested. This Is Yours. Whether You Pass Or Fail Is Entirely Up To You. I Can’t Tell You What To Do, But I Know Where I’ll Be Tonight. (acheron)

Because I Don’t Feel Broken When You Look At Me.

My Father Tutored Me Well On Amnesia. He Always Said It Was A Necessary Ingredient For Any Friendship. (kiara)
