Diplomatic Immunity: Three on the Boat

"Don't say that, Kalli," Aspasia replies as they reach the door of Kalli's cabin, "Death is never the solution. It is always better to live, for there are many paths to happiness, and surely you will find one that brings you great joy, if not now, then eventually."

Kallithyia: Palmaid/Female (Amazon)

RA: [sblock]“If you believe that, Aspasia,” Kallithyia said honestly, and not in spite, as she opened the door to her own cabin, “then you’ve never loved someone as I love Catullus… I’ve never felt so unloved, so underappreciated, so rejected… I don’t know how its possible cause it seems so silly to me,” she admitted as she crawled into the bed and looked upon the healer in dismay, “but Catullus’ rejection feels worse than being raped… When I was raped I felt humiliated but I struggled to live… now I haven’t the energy to struggle to live and I just feel as humiliated…” [/sblock]

"Kalli, I don't understand your sudden and abrupt change in demeanour. When we were talking before, we discussed the fact that he would probably say no, and you were okay with it. We even talked about Lynestra's relative lifespan proving that there would be a happy end. So why all the fatalism now, Kalli? He isn't rejecting you--he still thinks you are a great person, and I can see that he loves you, though in a different way, almost as brother and sister, or best friends. It isn't like he detests you, Kalli...You have something to work with there..."

Kallithyia: Palmaid/Female (Amazon)

RA: [sblock]“He said no before I could even ask, Aspasia,” Kallithyia admitted from the bed as she faced the wall, “that’s a little bit different than him saying that he would love to but couldn’t… It seems so, well… Finial. He loves her so much that he wouldn’t even consider being with someone else… and, well, personally, I probably lead to much with my heart like a foolish Seelie girl but in my heart it was all suppose to work to out… That was obviously a foolish belief, wasn’t it?” [/sblock]

"It isn't foolish at all...it is quite admirable. The only thing you are doing that is even a little bit foolish is dwelling on a partial setback as if it was final and irrevocable, when you have so many more chances..."

Kallithyia: Palmaid/Female (Amazon)

RA: [sblock]“Aspasia, I’ve had nothing but suffering for the past four years and I would like to experience the joy of what Catullus is offering Lynestra… Instead, I must wait till Lynestra dies of old age. Maybe I’m being self-centered, Aspasia, but, right now, I cannot imagine that Catullus is planning anything other than spending his future with the woman he truly loves and frankly it isn’t me…”

“Now, please, Aspasia,” Kallithyia asks, her frustration and anger starting showing for the first time, “I would like to not talk about it anymore, okay?” [/sblock]

[SBLOCK]“Well unless she interacts with it, it should look as real to her as if it were there in the flesh...so it would at least be something for her to model her transformations on. It definitely wouldn’t be any worse than making a model for her to copy, and you could move it around as well.”[/SBLOCK]

"Certainly, Kalli. In that case, how would you like another massage to ease your tension?"
[/SBLOCK]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]
"Hmm, that's certainly true. It definitely does have its advantages. The problem is that she has a bit of trouble with perceiving composition and texture of objects by the visual image."

Kallithyia: Palmaid/Female (Amazon)

RA: [sblock]“I haven’t really had much tension build up since the last one,” Kallithyia answered honestly as she looked upon the healer, “is that what you truly wish to release, Aspasia, or are you just trying to bring me some distraction from my sadness?” [/sblock]
