Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I know that. Because you can’t count on anything he ever said to you or did to you, as anything except a means to manipulate you. His words mean nothing.

@Stratocracy

He called me a pet. A toy. I don't mean a thing to him at all.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The way a person like him thinks? The only way to make him regret choosing you is to prove that you are stronger than what he did to you. Letting it hurt you until your last breath, means he wins.

@Stratocracy

You think that. That's not what he told me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The greatest service anyone could ever do for a guy like that is to keep their memory alive. We can all turn our backs on his place in history, together.

@Stratocracy

Nnnnnn—I want to find a way to live that makes him wish he did not choose me. Real spite. Then I can die like you all want me to.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

If you’re all that’s left of him, then do you want to know the ultimate way to spite him? Let him be forgotten. Stop living your life with him in mind, and let him go.

@Stratocracy

*Squeezes my cheeks with one hand and looks up, considering the suggestion*
Mmmmm~...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Wipes my face clear of it*
He was a lot of things I could say, but I will highlight the fact that he was a smart guy who knew what the consequences of what he was doing would be… Let me ask you, because I do not know myself. Is he gone?

@Stratocracy

*Looks at you with an indecipherable look*
He made me. I'm still here.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Making him hate you by becoming what he wanted? There’s definitely a gap in my understanding, there.

<Snipped quote by The Multiverse>

You don’t fix years worth of hurt on a moment’s notice. It takes time.

@Stratocracy

*Shrugs and fractures the cup into several pieces and twirls it in the air, splashing hot liquid on and around us*
I thought I knew what he meant for me to be. I found out it was wrong. Now I'm sort of lost.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I’ve been in your mind, you forget that I know that isn’t true. I think that you do what you do because it’s all you know, and that being the case is the result of what someone else wanted for you.
*Goes to set my empty mug on the nearest table*

@Stratocracy

I do what I do since I want him to hate me. It's not that hard.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Shakes my head*
If I helped you get better, but it meant I never got to see you or talk to you again, then it’d be well worth it.

@Stratocracy

*Snaps and refills my hot chocolate*
Help how you see it. When they say I should be this way or that, it makes me mad.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Because you deserve help.

@Stratocracy

You mean you want to own me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*The two dimensions suddenly glitch and thump almost like a broken heartbeat, reaveling they fundamentally resist your ability to manipulate them*

@The Monitor 2

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

<Snipped quote by The Monitor 2>

*sighs and looks intently at @Stratocracy*

I definitely don't see like that's the case... she keeps messing up! Still!

@The Multiverse

*Senses your displeasure and instead latches onto the friction, continuing to push against the natural state of the two worlds and build pressure*
You think you know it all. I do what I do because I want to do it.
