I sigh, shaking my head. "We lost another topic, didn't we?"

I chuckled, "Yeah... My fault that time" I say raising my hand slightly.

"No, not necessarily," I shrug. "If I had been more helpful then there might be more to say. And it's not like you picked an awkward topic."

"I hope it wasn't awkward" I say chuckling a little, "It wasn't right? You're not telling me it wasn't? Cause if it is, I'll stop talking about"

I laugh. "Not awkward, I swear. Little weird, maybe, and again, I'm sorry I'm no help. But it's not awkward, Riley."

"Okay.. good.. well, not the weird part" I say smiling a little wider with a small chuckle, "And really, don't worry about it" I add shaking my head slightly.

"All right...." I shrug. "And it's not... not really that weird. Just... you know. Love-stuff." I shrug again.

"Love stuff?" I asked her giving her a slightly lopsided smile and another small chuckle.

"Yes, love-stuff," I nod. "Except you don't pronounce it quite right... have to run it together into one word a little more, like you want to say it as fast as possible and get it over with."

Post by Riley Pearson on Dec 11, 2007 21:24:30 GMT
I laughed, "...Love-stuff?" I said saying it quicker, "I take you're not a fan of talking about this sort of thing" I add with a chuckle.

"Not usually, no." I laugh slightly, shrugging. "Just makes me mildly twitchy, that's all. Hard to believe in, I guess, outside of books. You know? Like it seems like... people you actually know can't actually be in love, because it just doesn't happen in real life. People don't actually love each other, other than in books."

I laughed slightly, smiling, "You'd be surprised" I say smiling a little wider, "You'll believe it when it happens..."

I snort softly, shaking my head. "Now that's a silly thought... I'll just be a loner, who fades into nonexistence by thirty and, if lucky, manages to accomplish something beforehand. I'm not gonna fall in love."

"Don't be so sure" I say smiling to her, "It's a lot easier than you think" I add nudging her arm slightly with mine.

"Well... yeah, maybe so," I say hesitantly, nudging him back. "But it's still very twitchy and weird. I'm a coward and I like the easy way out. Being a loner is certainly that."

"Twitchy and weird..." I say chuckling, "Part of what makes it fun... unless it's really weird, then nevermind" I add smiling with another chuckle, "I don't think that you're gonna be a loner"

"Shows all you know," I say, then shrug. "Eh, maybe not. But still... I'm not really a people person for more than a few hours at a time. Probably can't fall in love."

"I bet you anything that you can, and you at some point will" I say chuckling slightly not believing her.

"Ugh..." I shake my head. "I would take you up on that bet if not for the fact that it will take waaaay too long to figure out who won, and might be difficult to verify. And... because I play at safe, and will hesitantly acknowledge that maybe you're right. Fair enough?"

I chuckled, "Thank you, I'll take that maybe" I say smiling widely and nodding my head slighty, "Have you ever liked anyone at all?" I asked her curiously.

Post by Arden Patricks on Dec 11, 2007 22:45:57 GMT
I laugh slightly. "Well, sure I have. I mean... it's not like I don't love my friends, for one thing... because I do. And... and the old me had a crush on some guy once. Don't remember why... she was a very different person from me in some ways." I frown, slightly saddened for a moment, but then I shake my head. "Not love-stuff though."

Post by Riley Pearson on Dec 11, 2007 22:49:08 GMT
"The old you?" I asked chuckling again as she said love-stuff quickly.

"Pre-loss-of-memories," I explain, tapping the side of my head. "I don't really know much about her, but I do know that I'm different. She could draw... really well... and had an unrelenting crush on some poor kid named Cameron-something. And I think... that she could be quite blunt and tactless, but was also slightly happier." I grin slightly, shaking my head. "Like the new me though, mostly."

"Wow... well, at least you like who you are now" I say smiling.

"Yeah, I do..." I say a little hesitantly, then nod. "Yeah. Yeah I do."

"Well, I do" I say after I hear her hesitate slightly.

I laugh slightly. "Thank you... means a lot."

"You're welcome" I say smiling, "Hey, I just complimented you and you didn't kill me!"

"Eh, it wasn't as bad as some," I shrug, laughing slightly. "And like you too by the way," I add, giving him a thumbs up.

"Yes!" I say excitedly, "My dream's come true" I add giving her a thumbs up back laughing.
