... the way you're putting that make it feel like I was seeking compliments when I definitely wasn't?
[ HE'S FROWNING BUT HIS FACE IS STILL RED ]
Just take the compliment, Kim Dokja.

[but being called "reasonably attractive" after telling someone they're beautiful is such a step down? like, wouldn't it just have been fine to not have said anything? it's not like he thinks he's unattractive...
and this is why Kim Dokja stole a handful of "Stop Thinking" candies]
Thanks.
Anyway... if you wanted a truce, then let's actually make a point of how that should look?

If you are crossing a line enough that it'd infuriate me, I will tell you. And you will do the same.
That should be enough.
That should be enough.
[............... this presumes Kim Dokja ever knows when lines are getting crossed before he's over them, um.]
Alright.
Alright.

Lyle said something about "negotiating limits". Perhaps we should think of that.
[you're killing your master, Lyle!]
... if you insist. Please go ahead.

[ why is he supposed to start? He's going to just stare at Kim Dokja ]

I do not know mine.

[YOU'RE THE ONE WHO SUGGESTED IT???]

That seems to be a problem on both sides of this.

Then that was obviously a terrible suggestion. I will grade him on it.
I think he's just used to people who have any sense of boundaries...
No matter. We have reached enough of an understanding that surely, we should be fine for at least a few days.

If you want to understand me better then you can simply ask questions.
You're pretty judgemental of people who don't immediately grasp concepts without taking into account why they might not be very good at them?
[listen, he KNOWS he's bad at metaphors...]
[listen, he KNOWS he's bad at metaphors...]
I am a teacher. If you are sincerely having a difficult time grasping such concepts, then I will take more time to explain.
The students I leave behind are those who are far more interested in glory or political power than enlightenment. If you have a true interest for knowledge and truth ... I will never withhold it.
So tell me, then. What is it that makes a reader, such as yourself, having a difficult time with metaphors?

[............... no, he hates this question, actually.
he should have kept his mouth shut.]
It really more just a preference...?
I don't mind rereading stories to better understand what the author's trying to convey? And I will usually understand it at some point. But it's when someone expects immediate understanding when there's so many angles to read a story from that I get annoyed.

[ he's quiet for a few long moments, like he's taking in consideration Kim Dokja's words. And then, finally ]
I see. In that case, do you wish me to explain the metaphor? The context behind it, as well as the meaning of my world.
You do not need to say yes. It was not truly that important.

I understood it better when I understood why you set me off so much.
... Because I remind you of yourself? Or something else?
I wouldn't have gone about things the way you have.
... but there are similarities.
... but there are similarities.
You do not know how I actually went on about things. I have only given you a vague metaphor, and no more details.
Since you did not ask.
I will ask you, then. How did you go about it?

[........... this is a trap.
quiet for a long moment.]
I refused to be used as a pawn.
Except that it seems that that was part of the whole arrangement in the first place.
I was selective with who survived the first Scenario and I continued to be someone who didn't care for things like "saving the world". I left that to other people who were more earnest with that.

Explain these terms to me. Tell me again what you mean, but by using words that someone who has no idea what you are could understand.
Even if I can gather the meaning behind your words through context, I do not wish to leave room for misunderstanding. So please, go on.

[... this is also a frequent critique of himself. sighs.]
The Scenarios is something that causes an apocalypse in the world the <Star Stream> broadcasts. It's a system that records and shows the broadcasts of the events of the apocalypse, the Scenarios, to the watching gods and legends called Constellations.
Basically, the first of the Scenarios was one where people had to kill a living organism to survive.
People killed what they could, including humans themselves. I was stuck in a train car with a bunch of commuters, people returning home from work, when it started. There was a kid who had insects in a case. Only five at most. But one had eggs. I could have divvied it out to all of the people there--men, women, children. But instead, I cashed in on killing all the eggs myself and only four others survived.
Those are the kinds of decisions I would make throughout the apocalyptic Scenarios.
Something like "Save the World", I left that for different people who refused to give up such an idealistic view of the world. Instead, I worked with the runners of the Scenarios and even became a Constellation myself. All to get to the end of the Scenarios to tear it all down.
