Who told you so, dilly dilly, Who told you so? ‘Twas my own heart, dilly dilly, That told me so.
ouch is one of the most intimate, romantic ways to be close to someone else. The Town knows this very well -- the Town wants everyone to be as close as possible.
Perhaps that's why this bonding is so...aggressive.
Because you're in for quite the shock on this otherwise peaceful day when you brush against the next person on your path.
Maybe you're going out of your way to touch people. Maybe you've got a terrible urge to just see what's lurking in someone's heart. Maybe you trip over a conveniently placed rock -- whatever the cause, you're getting an up close and personal look into someone else's heart.
Welcome to Awash's eighteenth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to make your own logs and posts for this event!
If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!
Okay, okay. He's the one being difficult. It's hard to see Archer looking so upset and trying to do his best. Really, were you that much of an evil man in the past? I don't think so. Just one wrong path. Don't beat yourself up too much about it, ah? ]
No. I'm the one failing you. [ He breathes in deep. ] I'm going to ... forgive myself a little more. I'm going to say that it's all right to forgive myself and care about who I am. I made a mistake but wallowing forever will not make that mistake right.
[ His hands slap over his face as his heart is starting to melt around them. He hates it. He really hates he has to say those things to people. He means them, of course, but he feels so embarrassed that he is sure he's dying! ]
[ Something about Qingqiu’s words twist at Tristan’s own heart. Certain iterations of that statement had been repeated by his friends throughout his long stay here in Chroma, a number of whom have done their best to ease his perpetual melancholy.
Yes, Qingqiu is perfectly right, of course. This is a perfectly wise and reasonable thing to say from a proper shizun like him! There’s definitely a huge difference between this guy and Wei Wuxian, but Tristan isn’t thinking about differences right now.
He thinks only about the strange, disorienting sensation of having the whole world melt away around him. He’d been to Rayshifts that were less dizzying, but whatever the case, he’s…no, they’ve both succeeded in getting out of there.
And that’s what really matters, isn’t it? He glances around the occasional splatters of color about town with a sigh of relief. ]
If you have failed me, then you have more than made up for it with your wisdom. You have…given me much to think about.
Is it that I'm a huge fucking loser whose heart fucking bullies him? 'Cause I understand that being something to think about. I'd think about it and go, 'Look at that dipshit.'
Breathing in, he drops his hands away. His face is calm and dignified. ]
Thank you for finding wisdom in where I have failed. If I am able to pass on something from my mistakes, that is all this teacher can hope for. [ No one better underestimate just how great he at bullshitting away how embarrassed and mortified that he is about things. He is the king of blank faces and elegant words. ]
