Hello.

I was told the best way to get the answers to difficult questions is to ask, then listen carefully to the answers that people give you.

Why do some men have an aversion to shaving?

Are they afraid?

You can use the key pad to write.

[inconstantly]

hold on a moment

[inconstantly]

it was out of preference

[thoughtimight]

Even if it's detrimental to your well-being?

[inconstantly]

you could have put it that way earlier

[thoughtimight]

I said it would be more likely to keep you alive.

Then you said:

Never have I ever been very good with appearances. Or taking much of anything seriously for that matter.

[inconstantly]

wait

how is it that you remember exactly what i said

[thoughtimight]

It's an unusual answer.

Thinking on it now, it made me feel sorry for you.

[inconstantly]

there's nothing to feel sorry for

[thoughtimight]

Do you want to die?

[PRIVATE AS SHIT OH MY GOD]

[inconstantly]

[the real answer to that question is just as raw as it is complicated]

why are you asking these things over the network when i just saw you

[thoughtimight]

You wouldn't do something simple that would help you. I don't understand. The only thing I can think of is that you don't care enough to save yourself.

I don't want to die. I don't want the people that I know to die.

You're part of something. That means the choices you make don't just affect you.

[How did she put that together so quickly? John wouldn't have put it in quite that way. In fact, he hadn't connected his recent actions with his overall pattern. But it was true. He placed very little value in his own life and often didn't think of any others connected with it. In John's mind the self destructive habits were just that, habits, repeated actions that would eventually drag him down. But that was for himself alone.]

most days i do want to die

i hope that satisfies your fucking curiosity

[And yet he couldn't. Not until the job was done.]

[thoughtimight]

It doesn't.

I don't want you to die.

[inconstantly]

being curious doesn't mean you're entitled to get what you want

[oh irony]

[ Prooooobably a while later: ]

You ok?

[inconstantly]

not in the slightest

hadn't expected you of all people to ask louis

[omniavincit]

I know her. I guess I feel responsible.

Anything I can do? I'm assuming you don't want to talk.

[inconstantly]

knowing someone doesn't make you responsible for them

but i could use a drink if you're offering

[omniavincit]

I could probably have told you what you were in for. [ Good thing there's no tone over text, because he'd sound almost fond. ]

I can do that. Where are you?
