I nod. "All right then."

"Yeah," I agree for lack of anything better to say.

I nod again, half-laughing and half-sighing slightly at the fact that we've run out of things to say again.

"Do you have the time?" I ask after a moment.

"Hm?" I glance down at my wrist as if expecting to suddenly see a watch there for the first time in my life. "No, sorry... somewhere to be?"

I shake my head, "Just wondering. Do you usually wear a watch or something?"
|

"No... I don't." I shake my head. "Maybe I mimic people too much."

"Do you often see people doing that then?"
|
|

Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 27, 2008 17:48:32 GMT
"Not often, no...." I shrug. "It's just that it's supposed to be the automatic reflex, I suppose. I don't know." I shrug again. "Do you ordinarily wear a watch?"
|

Post by Ian Hunt on Jan 27, 2008 18:08:59 GMT
I shake my head, "I don't wear things on my wrists."

I nod, suppressing a small, silly, automatic shudder at the word 'wrists' and not wanting to especially think about why that would be.
"You doing any better?" I ask after a moment, now I've been reminded.

"Mhm," I say non-committedly with a slight shrug.

"Take that as a no...." I say, shaking my head.

"I haven't tried to check out early lately, if that's what you mean," I shrug.

Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 27, 2008 19:34:20 GMT
"Well... that's something," I shrug.

I nod, "Hard to see it that way. I don't think people get the difference between self harm and being suicidal."

"No, I guess they don't...." I laugh very slightly, then shrug. "Probably because they're kind of on the same scale, just at different levels."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Jan 27, 2008 21:28:48 GMT
"Very different levels," I agree, "Self harm is tame compared to suicide, I think."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 28, 2008 18:24:09 GMT
"Can be," I shrug. "But there are different leves of that as well."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Jan 28, 2008 18:59:12 GMT
"Also true," I shrug.
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 28, 2008 19:41:29 GMT
I shrug back, yet again, and trace circles on my knees for lack of anything to say.

"Awkward..."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 28, 2008 19:45:50 GMT
"Maybe...." I reply, matching his tone and shrugging. "Tends to be."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Jan 28, 2008 19:51:48 GMT
"Sorry."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 28, 2008 19:54:31 GMT
I shrug. "We're equally at fault, I think."
|
|
|
|
Post by Ian Hunt on Jan 29, 2008 18:43:06 GMT
"Well I felt obliged to apologise anyway."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 29, 2008 18:56:42 GMT
"As I ought to understand," I nod. "Sorry... for being rather a hypocrite there, when I'm always jumping down people's throats for refusing to let me say sorry."

Post by Ian Hunt on Jan 30, 2008 16:47:17 GMT
"It's alright. Apology accepted. I think."
|
|
|
|
Post by Arden Patricks on Jan 30, 2008 18:54:08 GMT
"Yeah... I'm not sure what I just said either." I shrug.
