[locked from Duo]
Fighting, everyone sniping and talking in tones they shouldn't.

He tells me what to listen to but he doesn't know what's in there. Doesn't see it but tells me how to handle ears and what they hear.

Tried to explain but it never works. Parts come out, never the whole and it isn't enough to make things clear.

Everything is too loud, there's too many equations and not enough numbers. Rather yell than listen.

[ooc: She needs to stop fighting with Duo about Master, srsly.]

Sounds like everyone's having a bad time of it.

I'm sorry if I triggered it.

Termites made more and now they're all lost.

Oh.

I'd call the termites those little gremlins that mess with people's lives. We'll get the crossed wires straightened out sooner or later.

Gremlins, tiny teasing creatures pulling things apart. Don't want the wires crossed but I can't pull them apart. The circuits are mixed and won't show the right breakers.

More bad wiring than the rest of us? We all have our short circuitry somewhere, at sometime. It's all right, Miss River, I'll try to do my best to understand.

It's like you speak in code, sometimes, like the way alchemists encode their research. Once you can break the code, things are better understood.

I'm sorry, River. I shouldnt've fought with him, but he... look. If he has a problem with me, that's one thing. I can take it. But to attack you because of me, that's not right, and I won't stand for it.

And he says I jump to conclusions. If he knew me he'd understand.

River, I know you don't want to hear it... But Duo's right; there's something too distinctly off about him to be trusted.

I'm sorry though. Duo is both combative and stubborn, especially when it comes to those he cares for and in these situations. Give him time though. He knows the sounds and sights as well as you; he just needs to realize certain things before he gives you the understanding he wants to give you.

Off off, about me too. Doesn't sit right, things are skewed. My pegs don't fit anymore.

Not like this, every angle and all acute and none of them are mine. Doesn't want me to have the drums to keep it away. Thinks they're wrong but they're not. Tried to make him understand but ears were closed again. Said he wouldn't, but he did.

Just because the needles destroyed and parts were taken doesn't mean you're just like him. You aren't. You don't set our instincts off; you can be trusted, River.

He does want you to have drums to keep everything away -- just not his... Duo still needs time; making a habit of something you don't normally do requires that. He is trying, and he doesn't mean to dismiss you without listening.

Trust me, then trust what I do. He said to not listen to them, and I didn't and now it's all changed and he wants both sides of the fence.

Means what he does. Everyone means what they do, mean as meaning and it's the middle numbers that throw you.

[info]ttly_an_arab
2008-02-11 02:39 am UTC (link)
I said you can be trusted; it doesn't automatically mean we do trust you nor does it mean we give all our trust.

He wants both sides because he cares like they do.

Did he mean to be angry at you? Yes, for what he saw it as. The first was against what few convictions he has; the second, an accusation the he doesn't know the sounds and sights -- when he does. Those nightmares plague him when he finally stops moving, when he's lost words and only has silence, when he can't cope anymore and has to think about it.

But he doesn't mean to not understand. He cares, but he has to admit that sometimes the way you speak can be lost on someone who makes words trivial. And it's not just a struggle to give words profoundness and time; it's a struggle against demons he's kept under the bed for almost three years now.

Can or can't, contractions and everything splits, misinterpretations and bad translations.

Know he has them. Peas under the bed and can't sleep, but that's not what it is. Different screams and quiet and there isn't war, it's what came after. Just chaos, but I can't make him see. Don't want him to, it's too much, has enough. Too many monsters and Goldilocks will get eaten by the bears. They will consume her and all that will be left is bones.

I say, are you alright, old girl? Getting into a tiff with one's mates is never a lark, but I imagine it's rather worse for you, what with people making assumptions about your general braininess and your equations not adding up.

If ever you need a shoulder, you know; someone not part of the general chaos of this place... well, Bertram would be only too glad to lend his.

Double? I'm afraid I'm unacquainted with anyone by that moniker. Dreadful thing, though, when a pal turns the tables on one like that.

Dancing... are we speaking in metaphorical terms here, or is this the dancing in Cardiff you mentioned earlier?

Duo is double. There are two inside him, they fight and sometimes he's both but it's hard for him. Just make it worse, pull out the wrong side and he gets upset.

Not in Cardiff with him. Was going to be a date, etad.

Two...? Hmm. Curious. Decidedly rummy, in fact. Sounds the sort of chap Sir Roderick Glossop would fancy a glim at. I can imagine that would impede sensible conversation somewhat, though, having two selves rattling about inside one.

A date? Oh, how dreadfully fancy of you, young River. Dashed pity the thing's off. I do hope the two of you work yourselves out. I'm afraid you're a bit ahead of me once again, though- 'etad'? I'm unfamiliar with the term; don't suppose you could enlighten a chap, mmm?

Not separate. Just sides, both the same but have different qualities.

He doesn't like the drums. Got upset, doesn't trust and was angry. Don't want to fight, but he believes what isn't true and trying to explain doesn't work.

etad, 'date' backwards. Working backwards sometimes helps in finding a solution.
