What you said was too close to what I know you all truly feel about me, to be play.
Cruel words are easy to swallow from people whose opinions mean little to me, but from those I care for, and where everyone else can read them... to say I was simply humiliated would be an understatement.
okay, yeah, i took that too far i didn't think you'd take it that seriously... i mean we don't ACTUALLY think that about you. i don't. you know that right?
At the very least, I resolve to become more independent.
For I would not feel comfortable asking you to assist my undressing again, and I... should be able to do it by myself. Perhaps I have relied on you all too much.
I don't know, but I am uncertain if I feel up to company in my current state.
that's not what i asked! i mean, that's great and all, sure but you don't have to go and start doing that all on your own just because i picked on you about it!! if we didn't want to help you, we wouldn't. even if we complain, we do it because we're your friends.
it'll be awhile before i get there anyway, but i'm gonna find a way to make this right before then. you'll see. i'll think of something
I want to 'pull my weight', as they say. It is unfair of me to demand so much effort and attention when there is little I can do for you all in return.
I appreciate your apology, and I'm sorry for... everything.
stop apologizing, dummy!! you didn't do anything i'm the one who shot my mouth off or my writing off or whatever, on your poetry thing i should've just butted out. you were only trying to show off your art
oh i got it hold that thought STOP APOLOGIZING but hold the other thoughts
surprise 2/2 what up my names jared im 16 and i never learned how to fucking read
( it is a long time to Hold That Thought, but after an hour or so, the Holdening can finally end: )
ok turn the page

( the flowers are pressed in as well, and the Leavings from the various things he used to make this are evident in the grainy texture. dirt, grass, bits of flowers and berries... blood?? ????? ?? ? it's downright fucking transcendent. scholars will puzzle over this for generations. )
( embarrassing, humiliatingly stupid GARBAGE TRASH FOR BABIES, but dohalim likes this crap, and if he points out how dumb it is, that will diminish the efforts he's making here. so he doesn't. )
yeah! this is kind of how i did it when i was a kid i made it with mud and leaves and stuff i found here. and i found some flowers i thought you'd like that aren't zeugles in disguise, see? they're really
[The mental image of Law picking flowers and painting is just too cute. How can Dohalim keep being mad?]
I do like them.
Thank you very much.
Sometimes you can be quite contentious, but I need to remember that on the inside... you're a very sweet boy. Even if you have no appreciation for poetry.

and hey, maybe when i get there you can show me those bridges you were talking about? and we could paint them?
if you still want to, i mean
no subject
And I love it.
I shall find an artisan in the market to build a frame. So I may keep it with me forever.
[There's a splatter of ink, because once again Law has surprised him!]
There is nothing I would rather no do more. I'll gather materials immediately.
I know just the bridge. It's the only one with water lilies.
no subject
what?! you don't need to frame it!
seriously, it's not THAT great. i could do way better than that!
( wait, he's digging himself a deeper grave here )
ON THE BRIDGE! i can do better art on the bridge. for sure
it'll totally blow this one out of the water
( cool that didn't help at all. what has he done. crap. )
no subject
Oho. Who could have guessed you had such a passion for painting?
I'll pack us a lunch, and we can make an entire day of it.
Painting and a picnic! I can hardly wait.
