Ssoooo, I know it’s tacky to use a social media site as a confessional and all, but whatever. Most of us –if not all of us- have been through some really heavy crap and that sort of stuff builds up. A buddy of mine helped me set this up, it’s got a filter on here that you can use when you reply so it’ll strip your ID from your comment. Make you anonymous, for those of you who can’t do that yourselves. You non-hacker types, also known as law-abiding citizens. [lookin at you robin]

Anyway. I figure we can use this post to just talk about the stuff that’s really been getting to us. You can say it with your name attached, or without; whatever you want. Maybe you’ll find somebody who’s going through the same stuff as you.

My thing is that I’m [a beat of hesitation, barely there] gonna die back home in about five years, unless I figure out a way to remember this. Or stop it. And that. Sucks.

But like, your stuff doesn’t have to be something like that, you can talk about that hottie you’re crushing on in math class. Just something you wanna get off your chest. Sometimes all you need is just to know that somebody else saw it.

…if you do talk about that hottie in math class you better have pics though.

((To make a comment anonymous, just place 'anon' in the subject!))

[gd it peej let it go]

I know what you're thinking. No, haven't heard anything from that far ahead so unless some miracle happens, far as I know I'm a doornail. Since I don't believe in miracles, I'm gonna work on that assumption.

[ NO. ]

Well, I'm still going to hold onto a little bit of that hope that a miracle does happen.

Yeah, that's okay. I'll hold out hope for some stuff, [superman coming back] and you can hold out hope for others. Maybe when combined we'll make a completely non-cynical person.

[ Supermen just don't come back. It's a tragic canon fact. ]

Ha... maybe. Who says I'm cynical, though?

[ That was totally a cynical response beforehand. ]

Me, I say you're cynical. Cynical people never think they're cynical.

I am not cynical.

Look at that, signed confession from a cynic.

Kare, listen. I'm like, half a cynic. That means I can recognize my own kind.

[ This is getting slightly uncomfortable. ]

Wally... don't. This is different.

[never let it be said that wally west knows when to quit]

Mostly I'm a cynic about stuff that isn't real anyway, like magic and elves and crap like that, but I'm perfectly capable of being a cynic about other things that are ridiculous too. I can even be cynical of cynicism.

Except magic and elves exist.

[ She sighs. ]

Maybe he'll be back, but it won't be the same. It never is and it won't be because... [ Ugh. ] It's complicated, between him and I.

You make it sound like you don't want him back at all.

... I don't know.

[ It feels selfish... but daunting. ]

I guess I never explained the complication relationship the multiverse and I have.

You mentioned a little bit of it. That you're not actually from the dimension you came from before here?

Right. The universe I'm living in — Jaime's world — is not my original universe. The one I'm from is long gone. It was destroyed during the Crisis and with it everyone I knew was erased from existence.

The Superman and Lois Lane from my world managed to survived. I didn't know this for a long time... anyway, I lost them eventually, too. They came back again as Black Lanterns and... well, I lost them again.

And another Superman had shown up before, but it wasn't meant to be.

[ TL;DR good things never happen with other Supermen show up and they never stick. ]

[Wow.

Okay yeah, he never would've guessed she'd lost so much by how she acts. No wonder she avoids talking about this stuff, when it's less like 'my family died' and more like 'my entire universe collapsed in on itself and destroyed everyone and everything I've ever known.']

So...you don't want him to come back here because it historically always blows up in your face.

And everyone else's.

[ Kon died during one of the Crises and when the other Superman had shown up, Gog reared his head. ]

Maybe things could be different... but I'm kind of tired of the whole thing right now.

...all right, I get that. Getting sick of thinking about it, or talking about it.

Coming back here has worked out pretty well for me so far, so I'm gonna stick with it being a good thing though.
