Maybe, but it's not everything you are. Thay would be like saying Mitch wouldn't be who he is if he wasn't the Mayor.

You're the one who told me not to treat you any differently. Did getting older change your mind?

[solidorkable]

... It did get me to think, if I can be honest. The Mayor is himself because he grew up knowing what he would want to do.

If I were to return, I age as the Emperor, not as Larsa Solidor.

[ If this was in person, Bradbury would laugh. ] You think he wanted to grow up to be the Mayor? Hell no. When I met him, all he wanted to do was build a bunch of crappy apartments.

He's who he is because of what he believes in. That hasn't changed, even if he's wearing a better costume now. Don't let the job decide who you are, or who you should be. The boss managed to hang onto himself: so can you.

[solidorkable]

Is politics not a life long pursuit in this world? In Archadia, one is born into the class that allows one to run for Senate, but it is a life long dedication. (he isn't too pleased about that, but he would keep the rest of it to himself.)

It is not a job for me, Mr. Bradbury; it is duty. I fear it might be too late for me.

SURPRISE 2/2

[solidorkable]

Perhaps this one?

[waiting]

Maybe it's different when you're surrounded with people who never got a chance to see you as anything else.

ALSO 2/2

[waiting]

[ Also, sigh, why is he playing along with this... ]

I think this works better.



Damian's the dog, by the way.

[solidorkable]

(he's just going to ignore the whole FEELINGS!!! e-mail and just stick to cats. argh, he really must be Mitchell's kid.)



I would think he were like this.

[waiting]

[ He really is. ]

Which one is he?

[solidorkable]

Which one do you believe him to be?

[waiting]

The one getting punked, I think.

[solidorkable]

I would think he would be the antagonizer.

[waiting]

He does seem the type.

[solidorkable]

He means well, though.

[waiting]

[ He can't really grunt over email, which is a distinct disadvantage. Sigh. ]

How'd you meet him, anyway?

[solidorkable]

... He chastised me for being too humble, if I remember correctly.

[waiting]

Now this, I've gotta hear.

[solidorkable]

It is quite embarrassing. There was a ... Mist of some sort that made me act the very epitome of spoiled royalty. When I posted to apologize for my behavior, he chastised me.

[waiting]

Even if he'd never talked to you before?

[ Sounds like something Damian would do, really. ]

[solidorkable]

Forgive me, my memories are not as they should be. I suspect because when I returned I had gone back one year and then thrust forward two years.

[waiting]

You don't need to apologize. [ He supposes he'd have found it weirder if he knew Larsa better before he was sent back. ]

So you're pretty good friends, then?

[solidorkable]

He is one of my best friends.

[waiting]

Good to know there's someone you can count on.

[solidorkable]

I suppose. I rarely wish to impose on people.

[waiting]

You're being too humble again.
