[silverking]

Should it?

I don't see how avoidance is proof of remorse. You're welcome to keep your distance, but that does not show me that you are sorry.

[barebacking]

It should.

I care very much for you and I would like to spend time with you. Avoidance for me is the only means to show that I am sorry.

[silverking]

I don't believe you.

But as I said previously, you're welcome to keep your distance.

[barebacking]

You are impossible, Isley.

I can see why it was an uphill battle for you to be granted forgiveness for your behavior.

[silverking]

[...laughter!]

Yes, I've often been told I'm difficult.

[Then, icily:]

It keeps me from being the ant that is walked upon, of course.

[barebacking]

It does not.

If you believe it does, then I cannot stop you.

[silverking]

Nonsense. It is better to bend than it is to break.

[barebacking]

But you don't bend at all.

So I don't believe that applies to you, Isley.

[silverking]

Then you would be mistaken, Yaha...and once more you prove that you know nothing at all about me.

But that's all right. I expect nothing else from you.

[barebacking]

I cannot expect to know anything from someone who shares nothing.

[silverking]

I've done nothing but share with you...what I can, at least. But I know a thing or two about voracious appetites, and you're a glutton through and through. You'll never be satisfied. Never.

[barebacking]

And I should not. When one realizes that they are full, they lose any reason to keep striving fro something. Is it not you who said something of the like to me?

[silverking]

My point being, you continue to expect too much of some people, in regards to the wrong things.

[barebacking]

I expect more because I believe in them.

[silverking]

You expect more because you're selfish and greedy and you lack a sufficient understanding of their being.

[barebacking]

That is what you wish to see.

[silverking]

It's what you've shown me.

[barebacking]

Perception is clouded from one person to another. Even I know that.

[silverking]

In that case, shouldn't you be striving harder so as not to be misunderstood?

[barebacking]

I do.

That is why I tried to write a letter instead.

[silverking]

...It failed.

[barebacking]

My wording may be too archaic.

[silverking]

I think it was just a poor approach. Wherever did you get the idea of writing a letter in the first place?

[barebacking]

A friend told me that I should ask forgiveness from those I love and try to make amends.

[silverking]

Did they.

I suppose they failed to mention that making amends comes well before being granted forgiveness.
