It won't happen if this is what happens every time. Rather than attempting to work with it, she'll cast it aside without a second glance. And given how ingratiated people are to her, I can't do a damn thing about it.
Kaldur, he has files on all the JL members and how to take them down. BM is excessively paranoid and controlling. He's only nice to you if you don't see it.
I would not put it past the man I know to have such files. I am not so naive.
Nor is 'nice' the word I would use.
But I remain convinced that the man you know and the man I know are different. Perhaps they have the capacity to become one another and all that distinguishes them is their experiences - but different universes lead to different experiences and I will not judge one man by the actions of another.
[ kaldur's relationship with his father and his feelings about his father are complicated to say the least, but he would think anyone else well within their right to speak of his father this way.
he knows better than to point that out. what purpose would it serve? ]
[ he has a headache. he's snapping. this is all not how he wanted this to go. distantly he recognizes that kaldur is trying to help - they've all been trying to help.
There's a significant delay in his response. ]
Believe it or not, I do listen when other people speak. I don't always agree, but I listen.
I don't understand why someone having a different experience automatically invalidates mine. I can hear theirs and understand it. But if theirs says "there is no danger" and mine says there is - isn't the responsible thing to do to prepare for the possibility of there being danger?

[ but how does he put this - ]
You are not generally inclined to give people the benefit of the doubt. I assume it is because of your experiences?

He likes thinking up ways to hurt people to make them agree with him.

sorry kaldur
I clearly have no idea what I'm talking about at any given time and all my experiences are invalid.

Not him.
