[Trying to be composed toooooo, after all it might be a patron]

Um, it's a bit occupied...

[maleborgia]

*coming in anyway*

Shaun? Are you all right? What on earth was that about?

[sharpasafawkes]

[Ffffffffffff]

That was... I can't blame it on camp, can I?

[maleborgia]

*taking a seat in there*

No. Is this still about what you were telling me in the hospital? I did not mean to put you on edge like that.

[sharpasafawkes]

[Annoyed noise is go]

Yeah, a bit, annoying as you can get though. Er... how's your nose?

[maleborgia]

Trust me, I have both had and dealt worse.

What are you doing about it?

[sharpasafawkes]

Well I try not to go around anywhere that makes it act up...

[maleborgia]

And yet you want to continue working with me. Forgive me if I fail to see the brilliance of this plan.

[sharpasafawkes]

I can't cut everything out that might bring it up, I've got to learn to get over it.

[maleborgia]

I would believe you more if you didn't hit me simply because I snapped at you.

[sharpasafawkes]

...Right, well, even if I ignore you it doesn't help me when it comes to everyone else it might happen to. I'm sure it'll go away in a bit.

[maleborgia]

I hope you are right. This is a situation that could develop into a much larger problem.

I will let you deal with this as you wish as long as it does not interfere with my affairs.

[sharpasafawkes]

How generious of you, I'll remember the next time I panic to punch you a little more gently.

[maleborgia]

Next time I do something that causes you to panic, you should alert me so I may take steps to rectify the situation.

[sharpasafawkes]

I did, I said I had to leave.

[maleborgia]

And I was not done speaking with you.

[sharpasafawkes]

Then you're not really fixing the problem, are you? You're just trying to find a way to get me managagable while you finish what you want to do, and that's not helping it at all.

[maleborgia]

This is not a problem I can fix if your strategy for dealing with it is to ignore it and press on as well as you are able to. I may as well try to keep you as manageable as possible.

[sharpasafawkes]

Well then what would be your master plan, I'm just dying to know.

[maleborgia]

I do not have one.

[sharpasafawkes]

Oh splendid, are just going to muck about blindly and hope we come across a magical cure-all for "the student I was fond of ended up going mad because pf this godforsaken place and stuck a knife in my heart so I'd just keep dying over and over again?" I'm sure there's one for that very situation.

[maleborgia]

*this is a flash of hurt before the defensive look sets into place and he folds his arms across his chest and stretches out his legs, leaning back in the chair*

[sharpasafawkes]

Do you think this place has any sort of help for that? How many people do you know who get hired on to give out therapy to anyone who needs it, eh? Even if it does last longer then expected, what can you or me do about it? Nothing, that's what.

Or do you think I'm not trying hard enough, that you'd have this licked in a few days? I'm quite sure if I just wish really hard and clap my hands this entire mess will just go away.

[maleborgia]

*silent for a bit >| *

And yet if you are telling the truth and your strategy is as you say, I fail to see the smallest measure of difference. You're being an ass. I was simply trying to tell you that if you expect me to listen to your criticism I expect the same. And right now I am willing to admit that I do not know of a better solution but I do know this cannot last in the long term.

[sharpasafawkes]

[We can do a mutual quiet thing yes? Yes.]

No, you're right. I'm just tired of being on edge like this all the time.
