Prying him away from behind a computer screen, huh.

[ this is a problem she only knows about... because of this world. and now she's dating One Of Those. Go figure. ]

The timelines you have to contend with are truly complicated... good luck with the prying away. If that's one of the things you'll intend to do.

Though to what degree of "not level headed" are you talking about?

[glowsferatu]

honestly it might be easier just to leave him there
and occasionally hear him complain about whatever

there was some form of contention between them way back when theyre from
theyd fight every now and then until the time eridan blinded him
of course directly after that is when he started killing people so

[lyingheart]

So downward spiral on that end, one way or another.

[glowsferatu]

right a lot of bad things no one particularly wants
well
i dont at least
still it may not even have the major motivating factor to begin with
the whole thing was over a girl
which is to say a girl eridan liked didnt like him but instead sollux and he couldnt abide that

[lyingheart]

... Ah, so that level of maturity. Understood.

[glowsferatu]

one could try excusing it due to their ages
but i dont think i found it any less stupid when i witnessed it firsthand four years ago
not that maturity necessarily correlates with age
just that boys are really stupid

[lyingheart]

I'd disagree, but there's no reason to when it's primarily true. Boys really are stupid.

[glowsferatu]

so what would there be to disagree with
its a simple fact and probably an inherent rule of every universe

[lyingheart]

Considering "most individuals are stupid or choose to act in a stupid capacity," not much.

[glowsferatu]

well of course
and neither of us is an exception to that either
but there are some groups that tend to display such behavior at a disproportionately higher frequency

[lyingheart]

Yes.

Like people with competitive streaks.

[glowsferatu]

are you thinking of someone in particular

[lyingheart]

We're not lacking for competitive personalities here.

[glowsferatu]

no but you must encounter it at a considerable rate if thats the first thing that comes to mind
unless we are defining it loosely
i suppose one might say an argument has competitive facets to it

[lyingheart]

By it's nature, an argument must. Or else you would not win, or lose, an argument.

[glowsferatu]

unless you arent terribly invested in the argument
then the winning becomes moot
but conducting such a detached argument isnt always easy
though it becomes easier with unheeded repetition
at some point you just want to say your piece and let it go where it will

[lyingheart]

Some arguments aren't so much competitions as losing battles when both sides refuse to listen... or you find yourself talking to an empty barrel.

[glowsferatu]

i might argue thats most of them
though i wouldnt argue it too heaviily

[lyingheart]

Fair enough, really.
