Frankly, sometimes I really do wonder about why you all can be so determined about not being honest with yourselves and others. Why hide? What are you so afraid of exposing?
If you embrace and live by your instincts you wouldn't have to try to come up with such sad excuses on the spot.
[ Harsh, but Dainsleif thinks it is refreshing when someone is so...honest. He lets out a sigh, but responds nonetheless. ]
You're right.
I will also say that I do have reasons to consistently need to hide myself, so I am unused to being so open, unfortunately. It might be that I won't ever learn to live by my instincts except for in my dedicated hunt towards my enemies.
...Who are the exact type to exploit the knowledge they have on others, to their advantage.
I think that a lot of the time, it's precisely because you want things to remain secret that they can be in turn exploited.
[ Something you desperately don't want others to know... it'd have much lesser leverage over you if someone were to find out and threaten to out it, no?
But whatever. She knows that isn't the only scenario out there. ]
Not always, of course. But oftentimes people do create their own problems by overcomplicating it.
[ Dainsleif can talk about himself well enough, though there are some elements of himself that are kept closer to his chest than not. Still, he hears the comment and thinks upon it nonetheless. ]
That can be true.
I suppose that whether it is an issue of a situation being overcomplicated or complicated will only be in the hands of reality. It feels even in this where such a thing seems obvious, I have to wonder if it's really going to be like that most of the time.
[ Spot the overthinker. But, he has unfortunately fallen into as many a number of Abyss Order related traps as he has disabled them. ]
