[ Video / Locked from Hattie & Flonne ] (Mid-Evening post)

[ella_of_frell]

[ While Hattie is "safely" away for the evening with a certain Mr. Nightray, Ella is enjoying the night off! And as she has been relatively quiet, for reasons of her own, she was bringing to the network a question.

Of course she is curled up on her bed looking a bit worn out from being sick (not cold-sick, oh-god-what-are-you-making-me-eat sick). Kyra was curled up on the bed next to Ella, dozing like a good wolfdogpup. ]

We don't precisely have this kind of holiday back in Frell, or at least it isn't called "Valentine's Day". But I get the idea of it, for the most part. I'm more curious about people's interpretation of "love" though. I mean, there are a lot of different types - the one I'm referring to leans more to ... well, creepy, actually.

Say you have a girl who likes a guy - or the reverse. Maybe it's a guy who likes a girl. Either way, someone likes someone. Only it's not mutual. What would you consider of the person that forces their love on you - like breaking into your apartment to fix you food, climbing into your bed while you're asleep, stalking your apartment or home to watch you turn the lights on and off.

Basic creeper behavior, in my opinion. But some people think that if it's a "powerful love" then it's okay, even if - in one case, the guy doesn't want anything to do with girl "in love" with them. So what do you think? Is that kind of behavior validated because of love, or would you call them out on being creepy and unwanted?

[ A pause, and she grins, tiredly. ]

And before certain people jump to conclusions, no, it's not a hypothetical friend of a friend of a friend nonsense. It's related to a conversation I had with my stepsister and Flonne a few weeks ago.

Oh and Byakuya, I'm sorry I wasn't in today - I hope Hattie didn't make a mess of things.

[ She... hadn't seen his post from earlier. ]

Like... your sister.

Firstly, she's my stepsister, not my sister. Secondly, I hope you don't think she's the only person in the world who can't take no for an answer.

Anyway I have it on good authority that she can. ... it just takes a bit.

Re: [voice]

Same difference. What's the creepiest thing she's ever done to get her prince?

[voice]

[ella_of_frell]

It's not. Not by a long shot.

She never got her prince - the one time Char met her in person, he ran. [ Amused. ]

I'm not sure about the creepiest, though. I mean, she was -- well, is -- president of his fanclub, but that's not really creepy.

Re: [voice]

[madeinoblivion]

Who's got his own fanclub?

[voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Prince Char. Back home, that is.

Re: [voice]

[madeinoblivion]

So the princes are just like the gossip celebrities, here?

[voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Oh ...Oh my gosh no. [ She laughs. ] They're as different from the celebrities here as you can get. None of our Prince's have ever been so narcisstic. Even Prince Char - he's not particularly interested in having a fan club or anything like that.

Do you know him personally, or something?

[voice]

[ella_of_frell]

I do. I met him at my mother's funeral when I was younger, and we used to run into each other every now and again. After the King passed and his Uncle became Regent though, he's been busy being groomed to be a King so ... I hadn't seen much of him for almost...three years.

Re: [voice]

King-in-training is probably a lot of work, Id think, yeah.

[voice]

[ella_of_frell]

Yeah. It's a shame, he was a good friend.
