[ 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. ]

I wouldst accost such a fellow in turn. Perhaps with a rock.

[ Snerk. ]

That might work back in your home, but in this place you might end up with some trumped up charge of assault.

[Ugh, too true. Major frown.]

I suppose 'twould be best to throw it from a great distance, then?

You'd better have really good aim if you did that then.

I once struck a man from feet away; I suppose the angle wouldnay matter much...

[She pauses to puzzle it out.]

Perhaps if my rage wert blind, I might do so with success.

[OOC: No problem! :)]

Maybe ... I have to admit, it's a bit of a surprise to think of how many people would resort to violence for a situation like that.

[A little wince here - it's just Sheila's own past experiences haunting her slightly.]

When one feels as though one art pushed beyond thyself, 'tis hard to find restraint.
