[sounds more curious than anything] So...what's the big deal about Christmas anyway? Yes, I know how it works and all, but why?

...there are a lot of new feathers, aren't there?

[Yes, and she's good at crossing boundaries, but she's starting to think she should back off for now.]

Doesn't it...bother you?

[perplexme]

Which part, not having emotions, losing my friends, or knowing I was never supposed to exist? [keep going Bella, you've gotten more out of him that most people]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Any part. [Has she really? She's not even trying that hard.]

[perplexme]

Guess you just grow used to it, like a bird grows used to flying, a wolf grows used to howling, and all sorts of other metaphorical crap. Sure it bothers me, but can't do anything about it you know? [No but it's the fact that she's stuck around long enough to listen to him ramble that's intriguing him to continue]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess so.

And by the way, usually you have to have feelings for something to bother you. I just thought I might point that out.

[Well, it's not like she has anything else better do, besides, she just gets interested in these types of things.]

[perplexme]

...touché, Miss Swan. Clever I see. Do you do this to people often?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Just call me Bella, okay?

I guess so. I just notice some things that others don't sometimes.

[perplexme]

Bella, Miss Swan, same person. I'd planned on calling you such anyway after that.

That's a great thing to have though, that ability. Saves you from having to go around in circles with some people.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but I just prefer Bella. I feel weird when people call me "Miss Swan" or "Isabella."

Yes, I guess it does. I never really thought about it since it's just something I automatically do.

[perplexme]

Bella sounds nicer. Suits you better too. Isabella sounds too old-fashion.

Keep that trait then, use it to your advantage. You have a knack for noticing the unnoticible and I'm well-known for missing the obvious.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

That's exactly what I think too.

I doubt I'll be losing it anytime soon, if I do at all. It's part of who I am.

[perplexme]

Glad we're on the same page then.

Again, good point. Any other parts of you I should know about that might make me feel ridiculous later?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

If there are, then I probably haven't noticed them. I'm better at noticing things to do with other people, not myself.

[perplexme]

You're a very interesting person, you know that?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

No, I really don't think I am. There's really nothing interesting about me.

[Yes, she actually believes that.]

[perplexme]

Give me a break. You have to be pretty interesting to have someone who'd go insane looking for you and to keep my attention for longer than ten minutes.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

...

I don't really understand why I would be interesting to anyone though.

[perplexme]

But you are is the thing. And that in itself is a good thing.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure if I'd really want to consider that a good thing.

[perplexme]

Why not?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Being interesting usually ends up catching people's attention, and I would just rather not.

[perplexme]

In that case, how did you end up with Edward? If you don't mind.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

When I first arrived here, he was the only one I recognized from my world, and he helped me out a lot. I guess we just became closer as time went on.

[She's watching what she says about Edward, so it makes it harder to explain.]

[perplexme]

And then you found out he was a...vampire...? [just taking a guess at what Edward is because he doesn't exactly know, but he has his hunches from things said]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

[She's just going to assume Edward told him.]

Yeah.
