I suppose that sort of thing takes time?

I'm sorry, I wish I could be more helpful, but I don't know much about this stuff. Dating or alternate universes. I just want you to be happy.

<Grappled>

[swashgrappling]

Yeah, I suppose so. I'm just... not able to stop myself from thinking about it.

You're helping me, Steven. Its nice to have someone else to talk about it with. Crash and I have some shared experiences, but not exactly the same?

Sometimes I think he wants something different from me. For me to be more like her maybe?

< HasNoFear >

[summonthesuit]

Oh, that's no good. Because you're not her. Experiences and environment shape people a lot. If you don't feel comfortable being more like her, you shouldn't do it.

Did you try talking to him about that? Just chat it through?

[swashgrappling]

The two of them broke up mutually, for a similar reason I'm worrying about. She wanted to see the world, he didn't. That's another thing on my mind sometimes.

I'm not her, but I'm some variation of her. Its always going to be there, along with our shared history.

I'm not sure where to start. Crash is just... very forgiving and accepting? He won't really press on a topic much. If it seems rough, neither of us want to approach it. Crash is a good guy, and I'm really not that good.

Bleh. This is sure a conversation alright.

[Steven can't stop himself from thinking about Layla again. It's not the same thing, he knows that, but... God, this is why he said he doesn't know much about dating.]

So if they broke up because they didn't really mesh very well, and you're some variation of her with the exact same reason for not meshing...

That sounds real complicated.

It does sound like the sort of thing to talk to him about though. Even if he doesn't like confrontation, if he's really that forgiving and accepting, the conversation should go well shouldn't it?

<Grappled>

[swashgrappling]

Complicated is about the best word for it honestly.

Yeah, it should. I just, I'm just having a time realizing I might not be very good for him and vice versa.

< HasNoFear >

[summonthesuit]

I'm sorry.

I can't really give you good advice on what to do with that, but I'll be around to listen. And dangle distractions in front of you if you need them. But for now, you ought to just go over there and see how it goes.

Hey, being here is enough. It gave me something to think over. I've been in some part trying to not think too deeply about some parts. Not a great thing, obviously.

When things are settled, he and I will talk it out.
