Bday Announcement - Locked from Keandow, Primedow, and SonIDW (slight backdate)

[sonic_wachowski]

Hey all! So due to cosmic coincidence, it seems like Older Sonic, Older Shadow, Fluffy Shadow, and I all have Birthdays in the same week.

But since the others aren't NEAR as cool as me, they haven't even registered this, so this weekend, we got ourselves a sorta surprise party for them. A surprise in that I just make sure Big Blue can't see me for five minutes so I can set it up and sudden party.

All friends of Hedgehogs are welcome to come and enjoy some food and games! Pay attention to signs, those are important rules.

Also angry Shadow, if its your Birthday too, come get some cake, just keep any fights outside the party.

People can be used against you, thus leaving you open.

[sonic_wachowski]

Yeah, exactly.
Isolated, you just have to not die.
You have to be strong to have people.

[ikeasnob]

Words of the weak.

[sonic_wachowski]

How do you know?
Sounds like you only experienced the one.
You frankly don't know what you're talking about.

[ikeasnob]

How many people have been hurt because of you? How many have you lost because of you being around?

[He might not know about Tom and Longclaw, but he sure does have some deep seeded feeling of loss. And he doesn't want to feel it ever again.]

[sonic_wachowski]

[Far more than he likes to think about too long.]

That's why you have to be stronger.
So people can't take away the ones you love.
If you want to live without weakness, then you live alone.
As long as you can survive, then you don't have to be strong.
Even a kid can survive on their own for years if they only have to worry about themselves.
But to protect what you love, you have to be strong, or you'll lose it.

[ikeasnob]

Why waste energy on those who make you weak by existing?

You don't need others to be strong, if you do that is just another form of weakness, of being unable to stand on your own.

[sonic_wachowski]

Why be strong if there's nothing worth fighting to keep?

I never said I needed others to be strong.
I said I had to be strong because I wanted to keep them.
I know for a fact I can be strong because of others or a lack of others.
The positive and negative both make the same explosive reaction if I want it too.
Its just one of those is a lot less miserable than the other.

If I could live both ways, why choose the one that's more miserable?

[ikeasnob]

You say it's miserable because you are weak.

[And that's all he has to say about it. The fact this is all coming from Sonic means he will dismiss it anyway.]

[sonic_wachowski]

Like I said.
You don't know what you're talking about.
I do.

You really sound more scared than anything.

[ikeasnob]

You say that when you know nothing about me.

[sonic_wachowski]

Its called fairplay, buddy, and you have assumed basically everything about me.
Tell me one thing you know about me that isn't based on your Sonic.
I assure you, we have some things different.
And physical appearance doesn't count.

Besides, its telling.
Its amazing the lies you tell yourself to last, but do them long enough, you recognize what they are.

[ikeasnob]

You're annoying and don't know when to leave someone alone.

The Sonic I know is smart enough to do that, at least.

[sonic_wachowski]

Nah, you've been talking up how he's annoying.
I said not based on him.
A different degree of an established trait is still that.
You're relying on a comparison.
Which is pretty weaksauce.

Or are you really so satisfied with that weak of a showing?
I was expecting better.

[ikeasnob]

The majority of my world is annoying.

[Which explains, maybe, why he tried to destroy it.]

And it's not a comparison to point out that you're also an idiot who doesn't seem to know when to go away.

[sonic_wachowski]

[Not really a valid reaction.]

I mean, you like to teleport away a lot, so even that's debatable if he's letting you off, or you're just running away. You haven't actually proven you can read people well enough to know for sure.

So what you think it happening might not be, and the fact its based on an established trait, oh, no, that's practically water, that's how weak the sauce is.

I suppose the question is do you know WHY I don't go away.

At least then you'd know the personality trait involved and who knows, maybe he's different in that.

Come on, surely you're smart enough to figure it out.

[ikeasnob]

[No reply, he's decided to just. Not reply to Sonic anymore and ignore him.

This is a valid option, when he's been pretty clear in his opinion and Sonic is not getting it.]

[sonic_wachowski]

[This is what he means about the running!]
