Twenty-second Lotus - blooming twice

[spandexisyouth]

[There are a lot of spots on the page where his pen has rested as he tries to figure out what to write and how. Then his familiar handwriting starts.]

I do not know how to apologize since I still do not know what happened but I am sorry and I am back! And I would like to see everyone who wants to see me.

[There's more pen resting.]

I have a brother now! It is not worth dying over. But now I have one, and I wanted one. So that is good at least.

I think that I need to figure out how to alter the direction of my kick in mid-air. Does anyone have suggestions?

See anything interesting on the other side?

[spandexisyouth]

I do not remember. I also do not remember dying. It is very strange.

How have things been here?

[seeya-next-life.livejournal.com]

Huh. Well, maybe it's better that way.

Things have been pretty same old same old here. The Wilderness is still the same place as it was before, with the weird doubles and so on, so watch it if you go back. The entire Sphere might have an aneurysm or something if you died again.

[spandexisyouth]

It might be.

I think many people would be very hurt. I do not intend to go back down there. I do not want to hurt more, or hurt them again.

Yeah, 'no pain no gain' is one thing, but that place is kinda overkill if you ask me.

[spandexisyouth]

Did you learn something that was painful, Lea?

[seeya-next-life.livejournal.com]

Let's just say what I learned may not have been worth the headache I had for the following 48 hours.

[spandexisyouth]

I am sorry. But if you are not sure then maybe it was worth it and important?

[seeya-next-life.livejournal.com]

Sometimes those spare parts you think aren't worth anything end up being just what you're looking for later down the road. And sometimes, they're just useless spare parts. I guess only time will tell.

[spandexisyouth]

Exactly! And while you wait for time to tell, you can hope! Did you want to share what you learned?

[seeya-next-life.livejournal.com]

[Ah, Youth. XD He's pleased to see that some things really never do change.]

Maybe not just yet. Kinda feels dumb to share stuff when I'm not even sure what it means yet. Don't worry, though, if I have a major breakthrough I'll make sure to let you know. Cross my heart.

[spandexisyouth]

I understand, and I hope you will have a breakthrough and not just for my sake!
