Do you ever feel like you've been shoved into a box and no matter what you do or how loud you shout no one will ever reply or hear you Because they are done with you and dont want anything to do with you anymore So they just leave you alone in your own thoughts Plagued and consumed in your own personal hell you've made for yourself because the fire and pain of you're worthlessness is warmer than the cold betrayal of your so called friends The very friends that left you to rot! In your little box

Anonymous

I…yes. Yes, I do. Every time I think about a certain someone from my not-so-distant past, that’s precisely how I feel. 

Sometimes I consider opening the lid again, peeking out at the world above, in hopes of regaining what is long lost. But I know it’s useless. I know that person never wants to see or hear from me again, and even though it kills me in a way nothing has ever killed me before, I’m going to give them what they want. 

You see, starting somewhere around six months ago, I did something that I’m terribly ashamed of…I forgot how to be a friend to someone when they’re at their lowest. I forgot how to be there for someone when they need me most. It is this that reveals my worthlessness. It is this that causes my pain. And it is this that has shoved me into the box. 

I can imagine nothing that I would love more than to find myself out of the box and back in the arms of the one I held so dear and then lost due to my own failure to be a decent human being. But I’m stuck. I don’t know what to do, and even if I did know what to do, I’m not sure I would have the courage to do it. 

I’ve been shoved into a box because it’s where I deserve to be. No matter what I do, no matter how loud I shout, no one will ever reply or even hear me. Because they’re done with me. And rightfully so. They don’t want anything to do with me anymore. And who can blame them? So I sit here, alone, with my thoughts. I’m plagued, consumed in this hell I’ve made for myself. But the fire and the pain of my worthlessness - it’s warmer than the cold betrayal of my so-called friends. The very ones who left me to rot in my little box. Because maybe this is where I belong. Maybe here, I won’t hurt anyone.

She rips off the bracelet and the beads fall to the ground. Th fire gutters and falls lower. You try and find a stick, kindling, anything.. She throws you back with deceptive strength. "Hercu...lese...?" She smiled wide, teeth a row of perfect white tombstones. "Meleager. Yes, I'm female this time." She plucks a charred wooden bead off the floor. "Why don't you fuel your fire with this." She tosses it carelessly into the fire. You plunge your hand into the flames, but the bead has burnt.

…Wat. This is not where I thought this was going. The first few messages made me expect something, like…deep and personal and emotional. This is quite different, but definitely still interesting. Feel free to continue, dear anon.

"I'm just a guy who was bored and decided to answer questions," you stammer out, and note the fire is sputtering as well. As you reach for another log, her hand clamps down on your wrist. "Tell me about your bracelet. Unusual for a 'guy' to be wearing, huh?" You hiss slightly. Her hand isn't cool anymore, it's like an icy brand burning into your skin. It hurts. "I don't know anything!" You yelp and she grips harder. "Then take me to someone who does." She hisses right back.. "It's a bracelet."

Bracelet? What? I am so confused right now.

(I don't know if you got my other send and it made me all jittery as in too much coffeeH so here's another little part that makes no sense as always.) She takes her hand off of your arm. "Oh." You feel horrible, even as you try- and fail- to convince yourself that it's not your fault if she (you) got her (your) hopes up. "Ask and I'll do my best." She smiles. It's a sad smile. "What are you?" You freeze. "Don't you mean, 'who?'" She smiles again, but it's sharp and dangerous. "No. What."

Hm…this seems to be taking a different turn than I expected…

"But there's a good chance, right?" He voice is hopeful, pleading, even, and the flames seem to be soften. You're running out of firewood. "There's a good chance, yes," you reply. Maybe she'll ask something most girls ask, will my boyfriend ask me out, do I look nice, a no-brainer question. "Is this a yes or no question or is it fill in the blank?" You joke, but it does nothing to lighten the tension that fills the room.

This is beautiful, anon. I love you.

The log snaps in half from the heat after only a few seconds. Her eyes are fixed on the dancing flames, and it is your turn to be hesitant. "I said you could ask anything," and she shushes you. "I know. But can you answer anything?" You sigh. "No," and you avert your eyes to the flames, "I can't."

"Anything?" She asks, hesitantly, laying a cool hand on your arm. The wind blows outside, a counterpoint to the muted conversation. The fire crackles in its grate, sending embers floating and making snapping noises as the last logs burn down. You reach for the firewood stack, carefully, avoiding splinters, and throw it onto the dying fire. "Yeah," you finally reply. "Anything."

Wow, anon, that’s very nice. I’d love to hear more of it. I’d quite enjoy finding out what exactly is going on with this. Please?

1-40

Anonymous

Um, don’t you think that’s a little extreme? How about I just do 1 and 40 instead? Will that be okay? 

1.What you’re drinking.

It’s almost gone, but it’s some of my South Mississippi sweet tea, as always. 

40.Something weird that you own.

Last time I did this, I took a couple pictures of a shelf full of weird things (this post). Since then, I have filled in the gap on the top shelf, so I’m going to use this question to show you guys the weirdly awesome/awesomely weird thing that inhabits the former gap.

You have a choice, hang a child, kill, and drain it of all blood or be drowned in a glass pool of water?

Anonymous

Good grief I would much rather be drowned in a glass pool of water than have to do anything like that to anyone, especially a freaking child. This is a very unpleasant thing, anon. I do not thank you for this.

Me. You. Bed. NOW?

Anonymous

Oh dear! No, I don’t believe so! Because (a) I am heteroromantic asexual (although I doubt you meant that), and (b) assuming you meant cuddles, I am much too awkward for any of that unless I have been very close to you for a very long time. You can ask any of my IRL friends. I don’t even sit very close to people unless I’ve gotten really close to them and comfortable with them. I’m the very definition of awkward. Sorry, nonnie love.

Blond or brunette?

Anonymous

This is a very vague question, but assuming that you are asking to which hair color I am more likely to be attracted, the answer is brunette.

Would you date a guy that was previously a girl?

Anonymous

I wouldn’t. I believe that God creates people the gender they’re supposed to be and that it isn’t within their authority to change that, so I would still consider the person a girl. Again, I understand completely that people disagree with me. But that’s how I feel about it, nonetheless.

What is the most embarrassing thing you have ever done?

Anonymous

Once, when I was a preteen, I went running through the living room of my grandparents’ house with no pants on, thinking that my granny and I were the only two people in the house. The living room, to my surprise, contained my pawpaw, two uncles, and several male cousins. That was extremely embarrassing.
