Come Around Again

[makes_you_tick]

Well, I have to say, I wasn't expecting the rabbits to set me on fire. There goes another jacket- but the City gets points for originality.

Even I'm starting to get tired of this weather. It was nice seeing a real winter, for once, but now I'm reminded of why I was always so glad when they were over with.

This is a message out to the deities. Do any of you remember that deal I made a year and a half ago? Where I lost my powers for a month and you were supposed to give someone's life back?

[he will adore both, that for sure. And Gabriel will get some of that aodration as well. so it might be a good plan either wayXD]

Okay.

...

Please don't trade your memories... I don't know what you want from them, but... Don't trade your memories, okay?

[it can be a pre-Valentine's gift, then. >_> ]

I don't expect they'll want my memories. But I wouldn't trade any of you for anything. I promise.

They'll want my abilities, though. They had fun taking them the last time.

That's always good to know. It would... suck, if I had to befriend you again and stuff.

Giving away your abilities shouldn't be that hard. I mean, they are fun, but you don't really need them, do you?

It's not something you have to worry about. I know it's rough getting to know me.

That's the thing. Last time, they left the side effect of one of my abilities that makes me crave more. It's difficult to ignore. So no, I don't need them. But it feels like I do.

It's not rough, getting to know you. But I would have to be very careful not to pressure you into being friends with me just because you were before the memory loss. I would probably lose sleep worrying you'd not want to be friends this time around. It's stupid, I know.


Well, I'll do my best to help you through it. I know some effective distracting techniques, after all.

It's not stupid, but it's not going to happen either. Even if it did, if I got hit with a bad curse or something- you're the most likable guy in the City. The odds are strongly in your favor.

That's true. This time shouldn't be so difficult. Thanks, Anthony.

I'm really not. But thanks for saying that.

Don't mention it. I wouldn't let you deal with this alone. Especially if you feel it's going to hit you that bad.

I should hold a poll sometime. I think you'd win. (don't worry, there won't be a poll.)

It was bad last time. But this will be entirely different, not being alone. And I need to do this. It doesn't come close to making up for all the things I've done, but it will at least set one thing right.

If you think it's the right thing to do, then it is. Maybe Elle won't be so angry at you so much, and... you know.

We'll see what happens. I don't think she's going to attack me anymore, at least. But yeah, it's the right thing to do. I'm just glad you'll be there for it. [he might have mentioned that before, but it bears repeating]

I'll see you after today's over, right? I want to hear how things go with the rabbit.

Oh, you know... Nothing better to do and all ;)

I think he's going to be okay. I'm bribing him with Donatello's lettuce stash.

Good to know I rank so high on your list.

Ah, I imagine that's calming him down considerably. Good idea. I was never very good with pets, I suppose.

It so happens that you rank in the top three on my list. But don't start fishing for compliments.

I can show you how to handle them. It's not so difficult.

I'll try not to.

I'd appreciate that. I guess my abilities don't extend to animals.
