Gosh, I can't figure out what in the world is going on today but it's pretty darned frustrating!

[This is not even remotely what he intended to say, and this silence? is him quietly fuming.]

I helped a little girl get her kitten out of a tree, before.

When does that ever happen?!

You sound... odd. Why do you sound like you just came out of the 1950's?

[never_very_good]

Pretty darn sure I'm cursed.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

How sad... I feel for you. I'm just damn glad I'm not cursed today~!

[never_very_good]

I'm sure it's just peachy to watch.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

Peachy and apple-y. It's all kinds of fruity goodness!

[never_very_good]

I hate this.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

This is the City! We're supposed to hate it to begin with... except when it's fun or amusing!

...not that your situation is either of those.

[never_very_good]

Must be a laugh from the outside.

Cat in a gosh-darned tree, seriously.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

Only mildly...

Is that supposed to be a curse, or something you did? I can't honestly tell anymore...

[never_very_good]

It's like a cartoon or somesuch. There was a cat stuck in a tree, and a little girl crying because she couldn't get it down.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

It's quite heroic of you... clichéd, but still heroic. I can't fault you for that since I'm technically a hero...

[never_very_good]

Yeah, I'm... not. Not so much.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

Well that doesn't mean you can't start now~!

[never_very_good]

Whatever.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

...are you dismissing the idea entirely? That's not very nice...

[never_very_good]

Just don't think that's who I am. 'Sides, it doesn't count as heroic if you don't have a choice in the matter.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

Well, saving someone at the spur of the moment could be considered not to be a choice.

Nothing wrong with that.

[never_very_good]

Not unless it's accidental or something. You can always turn away.

[sword-boy.livejournal.com]

If you see someone in need... critical need, are you going to turn away and act like it never happened... and never have it affect you ever?

[never_very_good]

That's not what I said. I just said there's a choice. What I'd do, how it would affect someone not to help-- that's a whole different story.
