text, memeing it up

[rathercommon]

Hullo, all.

So...The days are short, the air is cold (except in Heropa), and all of us are struggling with lingering embarrassment from all those mis-sent texts. So, to give us all a bit of cheer, and in recognition of all the holidays we've constructed to help us deal with winter, I thought we all could give one another a bit of love.

So! How does this work, then? Well -

1. Go ahead and post your name in this post.
2. People respond to you with things they like about you, lovely moments you've shared, et cetera.
3. You go out and respond to others with things you like about them.
4. NO BEING AWFUL. Do NOT give backhanded compliments or secretly troll people or things like that. The point of this is to be good to one another. Go be good to one another!

Well, yes. Of course. In general.

[purple_reign]

And you were...ignoring and misinterpreting her message in a way that was only going to get you hurt. Badly.

So I've been keeping an eye on you.

[dendarii]

Well that's not vaguely threatening at all.

[purple_reign]

[There's no hiding the incredulous frustration in their tone now.]

How is making sure you were okay threatening?!

[dendarii]

[ Miles is really just picking at Inanna because he can, now. ]

You make it sound like you're stalking me. At best, it's quite condescending.

[purple_reign]

["You will be loved. You will be hated." That made one thing she hadn't been lying about.

They take a deep breath.]

You're welcome for the concern.

[dendarii]

Go shove your concern somewhere else. You act like gods, but you're really just children with too much power.

[purple_reign]

At least I'm a child well behaved enough to stay polite when I'm asked.

[dendarii]

Shit wrapped in silk is still shit. I want none of your pity, polite or not.

[purple_reign]

It's a good thing I don't give out pity.

[dendarii]

Concern's just another word for it. Poor mortal cut himself on your girlfriend's edges.

[rathercommon]

[ Cutting in firmly: ]

Positivity or take it to another post.

[purple_reign]

Sorry. I did try to start off on a good foot.

[rathercommon]

Good intentions noted, appreciated, and dismissed, 'cause they don't count for all that much in this situation, do they.

[purple_reign]

Not particularly.

[dendarii]

[ Miles brightens audibly at that exchange like the shit he is. ]

You heard the woman. No negativity here.

[rathercommon]

Oh, don't you get smug. You were even worse, Miles.

[dendarii]

What? This was practically civil.

[rathercommon]

Well, next time, let's go for actually civil instead of practically, yeah?

[dendarii]

They don't deserve it.

[ His tone is more than a bit petulant. ]

[rathercommon]

[ A little sigh, but - ]

Why don't you come over and tell me why.

[dendarii]

Fine, fine.

[ With that, he clicks off too. ]

[purple_reign]

[There's only a faint sighing sound followed by the audible click of the connection being closed.]
