54: [Not posted] Love

My father loved my mother. His every action spoke to it, though as I was a child the truth of the connection was veiled behind the roles of 'father' and 'mother.' That they were in love was clear, of course--they were parents, they were meant to love each other. It was the reality of that love that escaped me; what was truly signified by the looks exchanged across the dinner table, or the parting kiss, which was given every morning without fail. Only as an adult can I think back on the evidence and reach the correct conclusion (a conclusion that will always be incomplete, as there were aspects of their love that were intended for them alone).

My mother left, as people inevitably do...but their love didn't die with her. Life is rarely so merciful. My father continued to love her...he was never able to stop.

Love isn't what Larry persists in chasing. It's not what society endeavors to force on us, what it tells us is necessary for fulfillment and happiness. Few find love. Fewer recognize it for what it is. Most won't attain it, and few of those that do will truly deserve it.

...The question of my own masochistic tendencies seems to have been answered.



((OOC: Taking place shortly after this RL. He began this as a private entry, then it morphed into something else. It ended up far too obvious for him to post, so for fear of the entry being hacked he simply saved it on his computer instead.

Also, in preparation for Secrets [OMG SECRETS TOMORROW] I posted all of Edgeworth's prior secrets to his LJ scrapbook here, along with explanations for all of them.))

It'll be a wonderful talk~. And if it isn't, Cori will make it one. He's doing this for your own good. >(

Eheh, I only made one secret this time around, and you both will definitely know it when you see it. 8D;

*TEMPTED*

...Bah. Who am I kidding. I just recently got my Phoenix voice back and it'd be weird playing the same character at two RPs, anyway. XD;

D'aww, Edgey.

Listening to Gant's theme music while reading this is not a good combo.

But awwww~ Mr. Edgeworth~

Oh, Edgeworth. I'm torn between the twin urges to hug him and to bang my head off the nearest wall. ;____;

Probably!
I think Orlando, Kyon, and David at least might be coming back Sunday night. >.>

Just a little~

*TEMPTS*

Well, if they're in different enough settings it's actually very easy to think of quite distinctly! So maybe once you've really got Phoenix nailed back down...*is shot*

I was holding off saying that last one cause it sounded too mean, but... yeah. XD
