I do not like being confused.

Do you like it if someone was if I when Do you like that?

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

But I like confusing you.

Among other things.

[spandexisyouth]

Why?

You could have said that. You knew what I meant.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

It's amusing.

I could have, but I like confusing you.
Do you like it rough?

[spandexisyouth]

So you like to laugh at me?

That is obvious. yes.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I like to confuse you.

good

[spandexisyouth]

Why do you like to confuse me?

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

It's not like it's difficult.

[spandexisyouth]

Then there is little challenge to it!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I'm challenging you.

[spandexisyouth]

Oh! To not be confused!

...You like to challenge me?

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Something like that.

You like to be challenged, right?

[spandexisyouth]

Something like that?

Yes, I do! And you like to confuse me, so you like giving this challenge, so you like doing what I like! Maybe?

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

More or less.

Maybe.

[spandexisyouth]

Bell! A yes or a no will not hurt you!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

It could. You never know. "Maybe" has been safe so far, so I'll just stick with what I know works.

[spandexisyouth]

But being safe is being distant and I do not want you to be distant. I want you to be close.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Maybe. We'll see.
There's something to be said for safety and distance.

[spandexisyouth]

I do not want to be kept at a distance, and I do not want to keep you at a distance. I cannot think of anything good to be said about distance with important people.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

It's safer, in case things get dangerous.

[spandexisyouth]

Things are always dangerous. I would rather live than hide.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Well, you can at least wear a helmet.

[spandexisyouth]

I will stay close to you! That will be safer!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

For who?

[spandexisyouth]

You think that I would put you in danger?
