Just Sloth and Despair so far, right?

[notaccurate]

They are the only ones to visit publicly, yes.

[housewolf]

Have you seen the others?

[notaccurate]

[DO NOT MENTION ENVY. DO NOT MENTION ENVY!!!!]

Lust came to visit, yes. But they could not stay for long.

[housewolf]

[Do your best, Luca.]

Busy over on the other side?

[notaccurate]

They said it was hard for them to come here. I think it expends a lot of energy for them.

[housewolf]

I wonder if it's less for some of them...?

[notaccurate]

It could be. If this is Despair's realm, then that might be why they have an easier time of it.

[housewolf]

I think Sloth said Despair can teleport too.

[notaccurate]

That could definitely be why we have seen those two in particular, yes.

[housewolf]

Have you talked to those two much?

[notaccurate]

No, I usually talk with Lust and Envy.

[housewolf]

Lust because she's your Avatar, right? Why Envy?

[notaccurate]

Well, I first talked to Lust because she's my avatar. But I found her quite agreeable and now we have something of a friendship.

And the second week we were here, I reached out to several avatars at Lust's insistence. Envy was the one I ended up talking to the most.

[housewolf]

I'm glad he has people to talk to. Friends?

[notaccurate]

I would like to say we are friends, yes. Though things might get more complicated in the future.

[housewolf]

What's happening?

[notaccurate]

I'm just not good at commitment, and if anyone asks me to then I might have to politely turn them down. And Envy seems...clingy. And envious, of course.

[And when he thinks of 'commitment', there might be someone else he has in mind for it anyway.]

[housewolf]

... Thinking about someone else, Luca?

[notaccurate]

[He smiles.]

Not exactly, no. More about what's happened here and what I've learned from it.

[housewolf]

Want to share your findings with me?

[notaccurate]

[Well. Omi is a friend, so.]

Commitment is terrifying and I don't think I like it.

[Commitment to who, exactly?]

[housewolf]

To who, exactly?

[A little pause-]

I haven't really dated anybody in years.

[notaccurate]

To nobody, really. Just the general thought of committing to one person is not something that is appeasing.

[What a liar.]

After all, that's how hearts are broken. If you put all of your hope and faith into one person and that person leaves, or dies, or falls out of love with you, what then? It's not worth it in my book.

[What a huge liar.]

[housewolf]

It's terrifying in some ways, isn't it? To let somebody have that much of yourself.

Relationships aren't for everyone, but, at least for me, they're worth it.
