[ inb4... why did it have to be rising water woes......

so, er, it’s kind of apparent that rising water’s kind of traumatic for velige. ever since the water first started rising, he’s been feeling a distinctly uncomfortable. a sort of an ashamed disquietude. and while it’s no different from his usual pokerface, it apparently bothers him enough to the point where he’s willing to send a message out to the network in an attempt to assuage his uncertainty. ]

I need a favour. Define whats it like feelin sad.

Or tell me a sad story.

Doesn’t matter if it’s real or made-up or whatever. Slong as its supposed tmake people feel something.

[ he thinks about this for a moment, then amends it-- ] Slong as its supposed tmake normal people feel something.

... Well, you don't have to... to feel sad.

Sometimes you don't know what to do though.

? Meaning what?

[ not sure if he understands... ]

Sometimes if you feel too sad, you don't know what to do, so you just stay in bed all day and mope. [Because... that's pretty much what he did.]

That so...

Guess I aint gettin nowhere with this.

Sorry... I'm not really good at describing things. I know when some people feel sad, they immediately get mad instead. Or brush it off and try to look happy.

If... that helps.

Heard that happen. But was told that theres always somethin underlying it.

Hey, Velige...

Is it that you don't get how sadness is supposed to be or... that you don't know what it is entirely?

I felt it a long time ago, once.

And then I lost it.

So you got it taken away?

Long story. Happens to a lot of people.

Oh...

But even abnormal people can feel something too. [Because... he's pretty sure he can feel it now.]

I got somethin. But in return, I lost somethin.

Aint nothin thats for free.

... [Being around pessimism all day back home is going to kill him one day--]

That's right... Nothing's for free. But do you think you're better off without feeling sad for... whatever you gained?

Dunno.

Woke up this mornin n realized cant remember how it feels like anymore.

Just all of a sudden? Or that you were reminded that you can't...

Been slowly forgettin. Guess it just all came together.

But don't people always strive for something so that they can't feel sad anymore?

Dunno. Thought people strove to move past it.

Ah, wait. That was badly worded.

I meant like... those classic villains that say that they want to take over the world, or move into a new world... you know, the usual stuff, so that they wouldn't have to feel sadness anymore.

Those ain't just stories

[Uu... BUT ONII-CHAN THAT'S NOT THE POINT--]

... Yeah.

So is it hard to tell if you're better off without it because you don't remember how it feels like?

Kind of want to grieve for a friend.

... but it aint happenin if I cant feel it.

Grieve for a friend? ... If your friend knew that you couldn't really... feel sadness, your friend would understand.

Not really lookin for her forgiveness.

[ because he... can't really forgive himself. ]

Then is there something within grieving that you're looking for?
