Dreamweaver 002 - The Game

"You shouldn't walk so close on the edge. Its a drop way too deep to play with.."
Worst thing to happen is death, and i'm all up for that.
"Funny, i never saw you as suicidal"
...just a little sometimes.
"Technically, if you slip and fall off that ledge, it's pretty much considered suicide"
Eternal damnation and all that jazz.

It's all right. I was just playing.
"You really almost slipped off! That was not funny at all!"
Well i'm sure god has a better sense of humour than you.

"You know, we've known each other since we were kids, man. But you've really changed recently. You spend alot more time in your room, you keep things to yourself now, you're not even interested in all those girls we used to sit on the roof and talk about. ALL the time."

What can i say to that, my friend. Given the choice of letting you think i've really messed up or gone insane, i chose neither.

"Its like you've gone celibate! You, of all people!"
I smiled at that. I guess god really do have a sense of humour.

"Your actions could almost be seen as a selfish act. We've come a long way, friend. We were all once on the same boat that seemed lost at sea. We're all still on that boat it seems. All but you."
Our tiny group of outcasts, neglected children and the socially deformed.
"We formed a family. Together we managed to taste the comfort of home for the first time."
But i think we all aged and should move on. If we hung on too much to each other, we would just end up holding each other back.
"Some are still so young. So very young. If you left them to their devices, you would be ungrateful, and a hypocrite."

Have you tasted love?
"What?"

It never ceases to amaze me how wonderfully cryptic you can get in your writings.

It goes without saying that I enjoy the issues being highlighted.
