Somehow, everything is always my fault.

Welcome to the club.

[atruevixen]

It's the shoulds and shouldn'ts. You seem to ignore them too often.

[ravenlord]

You don't seem too thrilled about being a member.

[ravenlord]

Why pay them any heed when they try to get between me and what I want?

[shutupmage]

Can't say I am, it gets pretty tiring being blamed for everything.

[ravenlord]

I suppose it is a different story when you often are in fact to blame.

[atruevixen]

Because they exist for a reason and ignoring them could do harm, Dai.

[ravenlord]

Have I at any point made myself out to be the kind of man who cares if he causes harm?

[atruevixen]

Even to yourself?

[ravenlord]

Are you trying to say that you're worried about me?

[atruevixen]

[ Wish she could properly deny it. ]

Perhaps.

[smugfox]

Don't worry. You can blame me for what happens next.

[ravenlord]

I'm fairly certain that I will.

[ravenlord]

I will not go down without a fight, fear not, my sweet.

[smugfox]

I do hope you're beautiful when you cry.

[atruevixen]

... A proper way to calm such fears would have ended at 'fight'.

[ravenlord]

I am always beautiful, Reynard.

[smugfox]

Of course you are, you're fae. That's why this isn't a beauty contest.

[ravenlord]

Your husband will not let me avert this fate, I don't think.

[ravenlord]

It's a contest of natures, I suppose. You do what is in yours, as I do what is in mine.

[smugfox]

Too bad for you that my nature's to win.

By the way, this isn't about my wife. That's just additional motivation. Just so we're clear on that.

[element_wizard]

Odd. People usually say that about me.

[ravenlord]

Is it deserved?

[element_wizard]

Yup. Sadly, it is.

[ravenlord]

And in mine to rise again when beaten down. I will find a new path.

We're clear.
