You've reached the direct line of Doctor Frederick Chilton. As I am not available at the moment, you might assume I'm quite busy with something pressing. State your name and business, and I will return your call."

Comments

[slightlyoffchilt]

Your disdain seeds because of my authority, is that not true?

[heartlessglitch]

I have a perfect, detailed memory of every time you disrespected or mocked me.
That, I imagine, contributes to the disdain as well.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Does it make you want retribution? Against me?

[heartlessglitch]

Our relationship has become complicated.
I have chosen to abstain from revenge, for the time being.

[slightlyoffchilt]

You prefer your so-called ownership over me? What we share, together.

[heartlessglitch]

It offers a degree of control I find reassuring, yes.

[slightlyoffchilt]

What feelings does that control invoke, within you?

[heartlessglitch]

Satisfaction.
Safety.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Your motivations belie that of an angry teenager, sometimes. I hope you appreciate the insight.

[heartlessglitch]

Then you are simultaneously intimidated by and sleeping with someone with the motivations of an angry teenager.
I hope you appreciate that insight, Doctor.

[slightlyoffchilt]

That. That is exactly what I mean by such analysis -- vitriolic, snide, enduring.

[heartlessglitch]

Is that a complaint, Doctor?
If you have issues with my attitude or behavior, perhaps you should speak to my therapist.

[slightlyoffchilt]

And give someone else an excuse to insinuate my instability?

[Oh. Whoops.]

-- I'll pass on that.

[heartlessglitch]

It is fascinating how simultaneously arrogant and insecure you are, Doctor.

[slightlyoffchilt]

That was not invitation to comment upon my personality.

[heartlessglitch]

Have I ever required an invitation?

[slightlyoffchilt]

Presumptuous. And -- possessive, aren't you? Perhaps it would interest you to know you aren't the only one prying into my psyche.

[heartlessglitch]

Are you trying to provoke my jealousy?

[slightlyoffchilt]

Will you use it to protect me, or will you let someone else cut me open?

Again.

[heartlessglitch]

You do not have to manipulate me into protecting you.
I have already chosen to do that of my own free will.

[slightlyoffchilt]

So are you currently enjoying a hiatus from the matter of my protection, or have we just not begun it yet? Are there papers to sign?

[heartlessglitch]

I do not need to be physically present to monitor you.
You are dealing with a very advanced machine, Doctor.
Or did you require someone to hold your hand as well?

[slightlyoffchilt]

She's trying to ruin my career, Danger!

[heartlessglitch]

Who is she?

[slightlyoffchilt]

She is Karla Sofen.

My therapist.
