"How is THAT possible? They have different names!

...and they look entirely different, and have different powers."

"Do they? Miranda may have had her path diverted a bit by Black Air, but the wings arrived on their own, and Muir tells us she may not be done developing."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Sep 04, 2014 8:20 pm

"...There must be some way we can test this."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Sep 04, 2014 8:21 pm

"I do think Aria is already panicking a bit."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Sep 04, 2014 8:26 pm

"Yeah...like I said, she tied me to the top of the lighthouse and poofed out. I don't think she was planning on me untying myself."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 05, 2014 1:15 pm

"Probably a bit hard for her to gauge just how far along you are, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Sep 05, 2014 1:15 pm

"I'm beginning to wonder how much she knows me, period. She made up this whole story; played me like a fiddle."

"You've been walking a tightrope regarding trust of late."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Sep 05, 2014 1:48 pm

"I suppose I have, at that. I'm getting better."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 05, 2014 2:04 pm

"I more mean that you want to trust people, but you've been betrayed."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Sep 05, 2014 2:15 pm

"Well, yeah. Everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt, right?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:15 pm

"And in this case you trust her enough to let her wear you, but you're on the look out for signs she can't be trusted. Are you doubting her, or yourself?"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:22 pm

"You think I'm projecting?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:27 pm

"Is it projecting if you're doubting your own judgment?"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:30 pm

"I've just...I don't want anyone else to get burned by my mistakes."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:50 pm

"And you're trying to prevent those mistakes, but it's hard because it involves swimming against the current of you."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:52 pm

Will nodded, slowly. "I suppose you could say that. It's not in my nature to be suspicious."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:54 pm

"I suppose all I'm saying is... you don't need to try so hard. You haven't let us down nearly as much as you might think."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 12:55 pm

"Thanks, professor. That actually does mean a lot to me."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:06 pm

"I realize it was a bit... discouraging how we left things before, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:07 pm

"I afraid I don't know what you're talking about," Will lied poorly.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:08 pm

"What I said to you certainly was harsh in retrospect."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:12 pm

"No, it's alright--I got overly-excited. That happens all the time; ask my wife."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:17 pm

"I just... I wasn't ready to relate to you on that level, Will. It felt like it put me above you in a way that I don't feel like I've earned."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:26 pm

"No, no, I understand...I understand entirely. I was just wowed, and I reacted in a way that made you uncomfortable, and for that, I deeply apologize."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:38 pm

"My issues aren't your fault, Will."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:39 pm

"Well, no, but I exacerbated them, and that's not fair to you."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:47 pm

"You were feeling your way around them, and that's a perfectly fair thing to do."

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 1:54 pm

"And I should have read your signals better. You weren't comfortable with my being there, and I should have accepted that rather than pushing forward."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 6:33 pm

"Won't you just let me apologize?"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 6:35 pm

"...OK, then," he said with a slight smile. "Sorry for not letting you apologize," he joked.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 7:45 pm

"I'm warning you," she smirks faintly.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Sep 08, 2014 8:11 pm

"Yes, O Glorious Morrigan," Will laughed.

"...seriously, though, Aria said that, you know, in her future, I kind of...well, you know..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 12:44 pm

"I'm not certain you need to feel bound by that, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 1:09 pm

"And, like I said, it was probably something she made up to be on my good side."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 1:12 pm

"If that's the case, I'm not certain she knows you that well to think that'd butter you up."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 1:14 pm

"Weellll, let's not go to extremes..." Will said, carefully.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 1:23 pm

"Well don't let me put words in your mouth, aye?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 1:34 pm

"I'll admit, it's..." Will paused, looking for words.

"She described me as...content. As...satisfied.

That's something I've struggled with recently--you know, the existential questions and all that. And, sometimes you go to church and you sit there and wonder why all this was allowed to happen, and you just have to take it on faith...

...And then I go into the danger room, and I see and I feel what you're able to do...and then we go back to your place and I see and I feel the....power emanating from you..." Will trailed off.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Sep 09, 2014 2:27 pm

"It's... not my intention to shake your faith, Will."
