"Pointless?" I repeat, raising my eyebrows slightly.

"Yeah, all the things at weddings that induce twitching."

"Ah," I nod. "Including the love-stuff?" I ask, running it together into one word. "Because that's the most twitchy, frankly."
|

|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 17:52:14 GMT
"Especially that," I nod.

"And it seems kind of pointless?" I ask, raising my eyebrows again. "That's... I mean, I may have a hard time believing it, but I don't think it's pointless if it does exist." I shrug.

"Maybe that's just to me. I don't suppose I have the same concept of love as other people," I shrug, "I don't feel the need to express it through a series of cliches and other twitch-inducing behaviour."
|

I shrug. "Well, no. No reason you should. But that doesn't mean the concept itself is pointless. Just the silly ways of expressing it."

"Fair point," I shrug.

I nod. "And now let's change the subject, because this one is making me uneasy."
|

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 18:24:19 GMT
"Okay, anything in mind for a subject change?"
|

|

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 18:32:10 GMT
I shake my head. "Sorry, no. Anything but that, though."

"Can I ask why? Just out of interest."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 18:36:05 GMT
I shrug. "Makes me uneasy, that's all. Twitchy. Love-stuff, it's... I don't know. Just twitchy."

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 18:36:58 GMT
"Ah, makes sense."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 18:40:01 GMT
I nod, shrugging. "Still kind of a twelve-year-old in some ways, I guess."

"Ah," I say not sure how to respond to that, "Is that cause for worry...?"
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 18:50:48 GMT
I shrug. "Probably not. Hopefully not. Just means that I get twitchy easily and am also a little naive."
|

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 18:52:57 GMT
"Isn't naivitey for the best sometimes?"
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 18:56:31 GMT
I shrug again, recalling that we had this conversation once before. "Maybe so... but it isn't very helpful."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 18:58:10 GMT
I nod, "Yeah, deja vu though. Starting to think we've talked about everything."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 19:10:58 GMT
"Well, that's hardly possible," I mutter. "Maybe everything we're likely to though." I pause. "Sorry, being pedantic."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 19:13:13 GMT
"Yeah, noticed," I nod, "But you can be pedantic if you want, it doesn't bother me that much," I shrug.
|

"That's good, because I do it a little too often, I think." I shrug. "Helps with the formation of arguments if you can pick over words."

Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 19:24:43 GMT
"I imagine so," I nod.
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 19:33:30 GMT
I nod again.

"Silence..." I say it normally this time.

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 19:46:06 GMT
"True," I nod. "Happens quite a lot."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 19:48:39 GMT
"Yeah, we really either need to know when to walk away from a conversation or have something to talk about."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 31, 2007 19:52:54 GMT
"True..." I nod. "Feels weird to just walk away though. And so far we've managed with the other... eventually."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Dec 31, 2007 23:25:23 GMT
"Yeah, it'd be weird to walk away," I agree, "After a lot of pointless small talk and repeating ourselves, yes, I think we've half managed with the other."
