it didn't make anything weird when we slept together, you know? i don't know if that's because we weren't as close then or what but now it's i don't know i don't usually hop into bed with people i'm friends with
Yeah, no, trust me I get that It's a whole different thing when you really care about the person
half because of the fucking empathy bond and what you can't keep out of it, half because it brings on this whole new giant list of potential problems that could fuck things up altogether and you wind up shooting yourself in the foot
none taken 100% understand it's fucking terrifying and messy and complicated and like in second number 1 it would stop being just sex & become smacking the panic button
If he's your friend I don't blame you. This place really fucking murders casual sex among the displaced.
It's true. I'm pretty sure we're bottom of the barrel around here, which is impressive because I just saw two grown men arguing vehemently about Harry Potter earlier.
You hit harder That's a joke, because I'm still at -2
I don't know, maybe it was the empathy bond, the earthquake, maybe we were getting to be good enough friends and I was actually sober at the time of the bleeding, which usually wasn't the case back at the compound

Everything in life is circumstantial, and some reactions only happen if circumstances are perfect
