  i'm back! and i have not much to say but that i am starting a new story and here is a bit from it: " I would be going soon. his stitches would be ready to come out within the next week, and he would not need me anymore....But i had enjoyed the company, and i held little hope that i would meet anyone other than the prophesied key for the rest of my life.
it was true, what they said in the mines; life was brutish and short. atleast for them it wasnt solitary. i dismissed these thoughts--they were useless. if, in the strange event that i actually became attatched to someone long enough to care about their fate, my departure became imperative to their future well being.
left in my presence, they would wither and die, often in a violent and horribly painful manner. i knew very well what i was, and what i did to those around me. if anything, i was an apt pupil, and i had learned this lesson many times over. the only thing i couldnt kill was myself, or the key, for obvious reasons. but i'd be dead soon enough. it was what i did with my remaining time that truly mattered. * * * i rose and doused the ashes of our fire. Coll lay asleep at my feet, shivering with cold. while awake, he had insisted that i take our only blanket. i was suddenly almost too exhausted to move, watching him chatter his teeth and curl up to block out the cold. it couldnt hurt for just one night, i thought blearily as drowse crept onto the edges of my mind, it couldnt hurt to sleep. * * * I almost did it. i almost relaxed enough to fall asleep beside him, curled under the shelter of our one ragged excuse for a blanket.
that showed a lamentable lack of control on my part. it wouldnt happen again, however; in the morning i would be gone. he could pull out his stitches himself. " -if you want more, just ask!!! oh and btw, im not really back. im sitting in the library typing this up right now. still no internet at my house, but im trying to get some service. -book of the week: the course of honor by lindsey davis -song of the day: i am a highway by audioslave -bye all!
