I'm holding on by letting go.

Yeah, right. It's always that easy.

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

It never is. I'm just trying to convince myself otherwise.

[lieu-murphy.livejournal.com]

If you figure that out, I hope you'll educate the rest of us.

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

Hey, if I figure it out, I'll write a friggin' novel.

[lieu-murphy.livejournal.com]

That's a good idea. You'll make millions.

James?


what are you letting go of?

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

Hi, Cassie. I'm letting go of things I should've let go before.

[lilmisscassie.livejournal.com]

Hi Cassie? Sounds so formal somehow.

Okay, talk to me. *tilts head* Well, I told you you had to let go of the ho a long time ago, sheesh.

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

Sorry.

[Looks at her, a little bothered] Don't call her that, okay? I mean, call her whatever you want when I'm not around. Just - not right now. I just - really cared for her. And it wasn't even so much as ... I don't know, really. But I understand there are situations that prevent certain things from happening, and this is one those situations. I just have to accept it.

Okay. first off? I was trying to lighten the mood. Secondly? Stop always copping an attitude with me because frankly I care so sorry if I'm going to hate someone for hurting you. That's what friends do.

Third? Get your ass over here and hug. Because god only knows hugging makes people feel better. *holds arms out*

*holds up a finger, displaying a pirate wench in a rather suggestive outfit. Bends her finger as she talks with a silly smirk*

What's the matter, James?

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

[Smiles, despite himself] Hello, Little Pirate Wench.

James is just a fool, is all.

[zee-ali.livejournal.com]

*furrows her eyebrows. continues bending her finger, only slower now*

Funny. He doesn't look like one.

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

Ah, he's good at pretending he's not. A skilled and veteran thespian of life's stage, if you will. He has come to master the ways in which to convince people that he is intelligent and driven and with direction, but remove the role and the stage and he is nothing more than a jester with no sense of where he's headed and an empty head upon his shoulders.

*drops her hand down*

That sounds tragic. Wanna elaborate for the girl who failed English Lit?

[adalia-krause.livejournal.com]

What are you letting go of?

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

Things that were never really mine in the first place.

[adalia-krause.livejournal.com]

And that is helping you hold on to something else?

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

I don't know, actually. Maybe whatever's left of me.

[adalia-krause.livejournal.com]

I don't know you very well, but I think you're an amazing person, full of talent and knowledge. If that's what is left of you, then it's worth letting go of something that was never yours so that you can hold on to what is you.

[possessingbadge.livejournal.com]

Okay spill

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it, Lauren. It's just me being an idiot.

[possessingbadge.livejournal.com]

*buzzer sound with her mouth* Wrong answer. Would you care to try again? *chuckles* Come on. If anyone could really sympathize a bonehead move it's me.

[literary-james.livejournal.com]

I just had to leave a situation .. a person.

[possessingbadge.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing by how your taking it, it was a woman. Somehow I doubt it was the ex or Rhianna. The only other two I know you hanging out with is Pepper and Farah. It's not Farah's boyfriend again is it? She told me what happened with him before.
