For blinding you?

[incredulous]

[cupidsammo]

... It's possible?

[ ;;;; ]

[purities]

I doubt that.

[cupidsammo]

... Maybe. But like I said, it's—okay. I don't really want to start anything.

[purities]

If that's what you want. But I believe there's a thing as being too kind.

[cupidsammo]

[ that gets her shoulders to droop ]

... Yeah. I'm not that good at standing up for myself.

[purities]

I've noticed. [bluntly, but not unkindly.] There's no shame in getting angry at things that are unfair to you.

[cupidsammo]

No, I don't think there is. I've just... never really been able to.

[purities]

Hm. And when it's somebody else who is being treated unfairly?

[cupidsammo]

That's not right either, obviously! And of course they should stand up for themselves. I don't think that's wrong.

[purities]

[nods... though she can't see it, actually. help.]

Okay. Then take what you feel when you see it happen to other people, and channel it toward yourself.

[cupidsammo]

… I’ll try.

I know I need to be tougher, and I know I’ve been pushed around before.

[purities]

Then try, until one day it comes naturally to you.

[cupidsammo]

Okay.

… But maybe after tonight. I think I’m too tired to be mad about anything.

[purities]

... It's been a long day. I understand.

[let's get our cupid sandwich to bed... a mirmir.]

[cupidsammo]

[ eepy sammich... ]

Thank you, though. I really do appreciate your kindness.

[purities]

It's nothing. Now, mind your step.
