Xan, if you touch the skinsuit I will shoot you.
This goes double for me. I will Shackle pulp you so hard the rec room will have a new paint job.
Pah, by the time I get to him you'll be on mission and it'll be too late to stop me.

Aw c'mon, I'm much better suited for the thing than he is!
I think, I haven't looked at his character sheet.

Dude, an billion% of literary academic work is making shit up. As long as you can build a reasoned argument supporting it, you won't be dismissed out-of-hand. And if you're talking to one of the idiots that worships at the altar of universally valid personal interpretations literally anything will fly, even if it blatantly contradicts factual knowledge and you can't support it with anything more than "But that's what I think it means and I've been taught that I'm always right no matter what sort of nonsensical garbage I say!".

The process of awakening from stasis has always been a sickening experience for Xan - the sudden shift from utter stillness of mind to even the slow creep of feelings at the back of his mind is disorientating and gives him a headache. He reaches groggily for his head, cradling it in his hands against the pain-
And he freezes. He opens his eyes to see his hands.
His hands.
He went to sleep without limbs, he should not have woken up with hands.
He quickly concentrated. He willed his limbs to shift to something else. Something more ... serpentine. With scales. But there was no change forthcoming.
Xan frowned. He concentrated again on his limbs. Change. Change! CHANGE! But nothing was forthcoming but the strange phantom ache that results from concentrating too hard.
His hands are trembling, and his thin chest is heaving with panicked breaths.
I can't change. Why can't I change?!
He rolls off the table he woke up lying on and scrambles under it, frantically glancing around at the room he finds himself in. White walled. Sterile. Harsh lighting. Infirmary.
He stays under the table for quite some time, processing his existential crisis and shaking. Eventually he stops, and slowly crawls out from under the table, unfolding to his full height. His eyes are red-rimmed and his face is streaked with tears. He speaks with a shaky voice.
Steve. Steve, am I on the Sword? Why can't I change? What has happened? Why can I not change?
RP? Or are we saving it for when the missions start?

........
Did I really forget to do that?
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang.
I'd assumed it was being skipped for now in order to facilitate mission stuff but if I just forgot to put in a bold, well...

I swear though, the emotional whiplash he's gonna feel when he just finished recovering from the shock of his god/father figure taking away his powers, IC developing a new motivation for life, and then he heads out of the infirmary and finds your guy like he is by accident?
I'm almost glad he isn't allowed amps.

So,well, is getting rid of feelings altogether an option?
Unfortunately no, I tried quite extensively the last time something like this happened, and that emotional attachment wasn't nearly as intense as this one is developing towards being.

Then if not, stop feeling guilty and go do something about one of those things. Any is fine. Seriously. Go. Do. Something.

I don't know why you are still reading... Go call her!
No, better yet, leave her for the time being, go make that damn paper!
It's quite early where I am right now, so calling her right now would only serve to either wake her up or get a voicemail :P
That said, I do talk with her quite frequently, and we're good friends outside of the unrequited attraction thing, which hasn't even come into the picture as I've been pretty good at concealing it, and if I have my way it won't come up ever since she's quite in love with her significant other and I'm not gonna try to fuck that up, partially because it wouldn't work and mostly because it'd be a horrifically douchey thing to do, from my point of view at the least. I don't think there's much I can do in regard to that scenario besides practice repression and do a lot of karate after hanging out with her.

As for the paper...............
I really should. I've spent a few days just staring at a word document for several hour stretches trying to make myself write it. But laziness.
I say I've no motivation to do it as if it's some psychological issue, but really deep down I just don't want to do it, don't fear the consequences of failing the class since it won't result in people yelling at/hitting me, and I'm really good at weaselling out of things I don't want to do. Only reason I'm still putting up the pretense of putting in effort is because my sense of shame compels me to.

Thank you for the encouragement though!

All their stuff is bout stabbing in a not-sexy way. So it should help.
I dunno, stabbing in itself is a sexual act if you think about it the right way. CURSE YOU FREUD

I'll look them up though.

It's way too late and I should be going to sleep but I have too many things I feel guilty about (the foremost two being my continuing inability to surpass my laziness and write a paper woth 25% of my course mark due in 2 days and my evergrowing feelings toward a friend who's already in a relationship and has been for twice as long as I've known them) bouncing around my head so I'm browsing around the internet and playing 2 different songs simultaneously to attempt to distract myself from the turmoil I have.
I'm mostly failing, unfortunately. I swear, 90% of the songs you find on youtube are either about relationships, trying to get in a relationship, or sex, none of which are conducive for the purpose of trying to get said feelings off one's mind.

Convert lawyers into Eldritch Prosecutors and send them to conquer territory for me with sheer weight of legal force!

Also give cheseecaek some awesome tentacles with which to kill other people.
