W-Wyvern?

Shiori's picture


-Sighs- I didn't want to talk with you so openly, but really what other way is there?

I don't even know what to say...there's just so much silence between us. I feel that I have beared quite a bit of my soul and yet I know nothing of yours. How can I possibly get to know you this way?

If anything the distance seems to grow...

Please say something. I know you are sad...and I while I assume it's because of me, I want to know why... or...just something! I want to know what you're thinking,, about me...about...us. About anything! I lack tact in asking but I don't know what to do anymore...

Wyvern: Darcy...I cannot

Wyvern: Darcy...I cannot justify my silence in any other emotion other than confusion. I...I love you, Darcy. I just can only wonder if you feel the same about me. Before my journey, both of our hearts spoke so openly, our poetic words fluttering about the forest like butterflies in a gentle breeze. And when I came back, I learned that those butterflies had found a new home in my stomach...I tried to tell myself that I should just move on, just let you be happy...But I realized that I cannot be happy without you. Perhaps, I am being selfish, but I guess that I have always been.

...Darcy, just answer me this one question. I love you...Can you say those same words to me?

But I don't understad WHY!


But I don't understad WHY! You say you love me...but do you love the me THEN...or the me...now? If there is a me now...I do not even know myself! So how could you possibly know?
I am not the same. I keep saying it and yet nobody seems to understand.

I can no longer frolick about like a fawn, care free and blissful. I've found responsibility...I've found peace in the forest silence and just lounging in the grass, soaking up in the sun through the holes in the canopy...

You say you've changed, too...but how? Still you want me to play. You run about with Reetno like the old days...Ha, I say it as though it was such a long time ago, don't I?...

I...can't say it, Wyvern. When I first met you love was such a easy word to throw around. I didn't know what love was...I'm still not sure I do, but I've tasted something like it, I think. Everyone seems like a stranger to me now. Reetno has been my constant, but I think even he grows tired of this dullness now. I cringe from the dark glances of others...judging eyes who hate me for what I did, and am still doing. I can't stop, and I can't make myself feel, despite how I've tried.

I don't know what you want from me, Wyvern, other than those words. Love is more than just words, after all...

Wyvern: I just love you. The

Wyvern: I just love you. The then and the now.... And I have changed, too, but how could I let my reunion with Reetno be one of sadness? He remembers me as the doe who used to play with him in his fawnhood. Who would I be to sulk and speak of heartbreak after not seeing him for several months? I even missed his Stag Day; I owe him a smile...

And what I want from you, what I have always wanted from you, is your companionship. I have always been alone, but you brought light into my life. Even in your darkness, I find myself drawn to you. A flittering moth, lost in the night, following her heart...

(I don't know about you, but I am still rooting for this couple. I really am. XD; It's just difficult to express such conversations in the game. But, I guess that's what these blogs are for. And for the record, today was the first day that Wyvern saw Reetno since we left; that's why she was so...jumpy at first. XD)

But why does companionship


But why does companionship have to be love? Why can’t it just be companionship? I love all my friends, but it’s a different kind of love, as I’m sure you know…this is the love I feel for you, and no more than that -sigh-

No, no…I’m sorry, I wasn’t being ignorant of you and Reetno’s reunion. I was just using it as a…poor example, I suppose. I don’t know, maybe it’s all in my head.
I can’t lie to you anymore Wyvern…I love her. Part of me feels I always will. I…pushed her away, and now another has already taken her, and here I am, the only one left who hasn’t, and can’t move on. I can imagine it causes you pain to hear…but I can’t keep pretending like it doesn’t exist! Then again, I suspect you probably already knew…is this what causes you such sadness? -sigh-

I wish I could be different. So many others have counted on me and been let down, which only makes things more pressing.

You haven’t told me why you feel the way you do…I still do not understand v__v


(-sigh- It’s bumming out. I can’t root for anyone >< One decision is going to hurt someone else, and he’s already made, what he feels, to be the wrong decision already…v_v I’m sorry. I would love for them to stay together but it feel forced somehow. Friends, yes…but they’d have to try something different for it to be anything more…I feel schmuckish @_@)

Wyvern: *looks to the ground

Wyvern: *looks to the ground briefly, a single tear rolling down her snow white, frozen face* ...I feel the way I do...because you feel the way you do. I have my friends, but I always imagined us to be more than that. Even as the sun greeted me this morning, I... *attempts to regain her composure*

Yes, it pains me to know that you still love her...But, I guess that my heart was willing to overlook that fact. *slowly walks to the edge of the pond; looks down at her lone reflection* Ignorance is bliss, right? *scoffs as she finds herself crying again* But bliss, this cannot be...

(I just keep hoping that this will work out, but it is obviously not my decision alone. What is your final verdict? I say yes, but if you say no, that will have to be fine. :/ And, out of curiosity, who is this someone else?)

-Watches in bewilderment,

-Watches in bewilderment, unable to do or say anything. He steps forward, then back, shifting uncertainly. Involuntarily shakes head-
No… I mean…how can you feel…feel love for me!? After all I’ve done to you, and am still doing!? I…I cannot forgive myself as readily has you do. I don’t even deserve it. Perhaps that…that is why is feels so false…?


(-sneeeef- Imademyselfcry XDD -whine- We don’t haaaave one. Yes, it’s Fulu v_v She just did a lot of good for him…he was so down when she came along, and he was so desperate to be happy, and he was for that brief declaration…but he also feels he owes Wyvern , despite no longer understanding their relationship. But try as he might, he cant find that same happiness again. BUT…as you know Zilant has snatched her attention now so none of it matters. He wither has to try here, or…just be alone.)

Wyvern: *faces forward, yet

Wyvern: *faces forward, yet turns her head slightly to the right to catch Darcy in her peripheral vision; her voice is soft and weak* It never felt false to me... We all make our mistakes, just as we all make our choices.

I have made mine...and I will stand by it. By you, if you will let me...Or by myself. I have already surrendered my heart, and never could I do it again. *pauses and then turns to face the other* It is your's, Darcy. It always has been.

(I think that after all of this, if this situation doesn't work out, Wyvern will remain alone as well. :/ Gah, why must we both have such drama deer? ^^; I still stand by my decision, but I will also respect your's, whatever it may be.)

(*pokes* XD And for the

(*pokes* XD And for the record, I haven't forgotten about the picture that I owe you. In the mean time, though, is there anything that you would like for me to color? I feel bad for promising you a picture a month or so ago knowing that I would not be able to scan it. Just wanted to let you know that I have not forgotten, even though you didn't even bring it up. XD)

Gah...sorry if I left that

Gah...sorry if I left that open ended >< I didn't know what else to say...But...it did make him feel better, as you probably could have seen ^^;

Psh, don't fret Sticking out tongue If you want to make him a picture to it when you feel like it, I'm just gratful for when they come ^^ I have a few little sketches I probbaly wont get around to coloring...Im so distracted anymore >< But seriously, don't worry about it.

On a different note...-sigh- I'm feeling sorta bad...Darcy WAS feeling better, yes...but that was before he started getting bashed by people >< I've been...seriously considering putting him on some sort of hiatus or something. He's just making poeple miserable, and I can't control how he feels so I cant control him changing it. Wyvern is actually the only one holding me back...She doesnt seem to have a lot of friends >< And they were just starting to patht hings up...but...I feel really insulted by what people have said and...really weary of playin him now...

Sorry for the drama @__@ I just dont have anyone else to tlak to about it...

*twitch* oh man... i just

*twitch* oh man... i just know your partially talking about me for what i said on Fledermaus' blog...

im sorry, i guess... i have no excuse. i didnt mean to hurt you with that, i really didnt. then maybe i shouldnt have said it >_< im really sorry, but like i said, i feel kinda bad for seeing Darcy have such a hard time getting over it. yes, ive been reading this thread, for that, i also apologize. i guess ive been more frustrated than usual (not with you, with personal things) and i didnt feel like holding back what i thought...

im so sorry.. i should have kept my mouth shut -_-

What? Why were they bashing

What? Why were they bashing Darcy? :/ I am sorry to hear that. I don't see any harm in keeping a deer in character. Not everyone can be happy all of the time, and it's understandable for characters to behave in the same manner. Darcy is entitled to his emotions.

And honestly, I've been debating giving Wyvern a rest as well. She's just been a bit mopey in the forest and in the conversations that I've had with other people elsewhere. Maybe we can both retire them until the drama blows over. Heck, maybe they can both go on a mini journey and work things out? XD That idea worked for me while I was away on the research cruise.

And please, no reason to apologize whatsoever. I understand. And if there is anything else that you have to get off your chest, feel free. I'll be around. ^^

NOT having said anything is

NOT having said anything is sorta the whole problem, Skokey >< I was under the impression everyone was cool with the drama…only to have them snap have them tell me otherwise…especially in a busy blog full of people…>< And you weren’t even telling ME, you were telling everyone else. I guess I would have appreciated a personal note rather than a public bash…-sigh- I don’t see that as ‘feeling bad for Darcy’ I see it as feeling bad for the drama he’s creating, which is a big difference.

Well…I lied, Wyvern isn’t the ONLY reason I’m holding back >< Darcy is…my only active character anymore. My characters are my life, and getting rid of him is…going to put a huge gap in my internet life. ‘I’ Don’t plan on leaving…I still have little Shyla to work with, though she’s being ignores by the adults. Being a fawn sorta blows ><

But seriously…I’ve always been a person who strongly believes in standing by your friends no matter what and I ‘m not feeling that here -sigh- I wont lie, I have a lot of depression going on in my mind, making me a bit desperate, probably reinforcing Darcy’s own emotions. I don’t have a whole lot of people to turn to.

I don't know what I'm gonna do here...-sigh-

======================

I'm still not entirely sure

I'm still not entirely sure as to what's going on, but I am seriously sorry, Darcy. :/ I still don't see anything wrong in what you were doing, and if people suddenly have a problem with it, they really should just move on to the next blog, etc.. They don't have to read it, and they certainly don't have to complain about it.

Please, Darcy, if you need someone to talk to, just let me know. I sincerely hope that you feel better soon, though. Try not to let what was said here get the best of you.

... your just making me feel

... your just making me feel worse...

i understand where you come from, and i apologize again. i honestly cant stop apologizing until you accept it. *sigh* i dont know what to say other than that. i AM cool with the drama, which is a stupid thing to say after what i said. i KNOW i shouldnt have used this as an example, i KNOW i should have said something to YOU and not behind your back. now im just ruining another friendship which i seem to be so good at.

i still apologize. if you want me to shut up, i will. i have no right to say anything to you anymore, at least i feel it to be that way.

Darcy is apparently ruining

Darcy is apparently ruining everyone else’s gameplay, Scythe…that’s pretty much the problem. And I CAN’T blame them for it…it’s been weighing on me for a while too. Obviously even you, or Wyvern,. Are effected by it if she’s still sad…But something a lot of people don’t seem to understand is that my characters mean a lot to me…more than just some made up entity, but…’real’, in a way. I don’t have control over Darcy’s feelings, or even actions. Oh sure I can plant ideas in his head or pursued him one way or another, but he doesn’t do anything he doesn’t want to…XD He doesn’t want to get over the fact he’s probably tarnished his image forever? Then he wont…until he’s ready to. I think everyone thinks I’m just being stubborn and truly enjoying prolonging the whole scenario and…I’m really not ‘enjoying’ it at all. Far from >< I’m sad for him…I’m confused for him. I cant enjoy those emotions.

I dunno…I think I’m just going to wait a couple days, try to avoid TEF a bit, see if I feel any better. I don’t think Darcy will return without Wyvern though…so if she needs a break then so be it. Might seem a little selfish but…damnit, I think D’s allowed to be a little selfish now ><

Skokey…-sigh- I’m mad. I can’t help it. I probably will be mad for a little while, it’s just how I am. I’m mad for a couple days, then I get over it. I’ll accept your apology, and I’m still willing to be your friend, Im just feeling a bit betrayed right now…

i know, and after you

i know, and after you explained how you play your roles, i understood a little more. i guess i misunderstood, since i didnt know you took your roleplaying pretty much as seriously as i do. i thought i was one in very few who took roleplaying that seriously, and therefore, i was afraid you would get a little weirded out by how strongly i played Fulu.

i replied to your email... you should know how i felt, even though its a pretty pathetic apology. i never want to betray my friends, and... well, i guess its my own fault for doing it. if you want a better explanation from me... well, ask away i guess.. im willing to answer...

I understand, though, Darcy.

I understand, though, Darcy. And please, Wyvern was only playing the part in return. I can sympathize, in that she feels like a real character to me as well. She has a right to feel hurt after what has happened just as she has a right to feel hopeful now that they have started to patch things up. Likewise, Darcy is certainly entitled to his emotions. I can only imagine how he must feel about himself right now. I feel sad for him. :/

I think that I might take a break for a few days as well and let Wyvern have some time outside of the forest. Darcy's more than welcome to join her, though. He's entitled to being a little selfish.

Just please, Darcy, try not to let what may have been said bother you. Words can hurt sometimes, but I'm sure that no harm was meant intentionally. Things will settle back down again. Just try and look on the bright side of things. You're not ruining everything for everyone, and even if you supposedly were, when it boils down to it, it's their problem. Just try and cheer up, okay? Smiling
