‘You’re listening so intently, now, and accepting the things I tell you because you want them to be true…or maybe you want them to be true becau...e you’re accepting the things I tell you. It’s getting harder and harder to keep track of which are my ideas that you’ve always wanted and which are your ideas that I’ve made you want to want, and the more you think about it, the more you think that you don’t want to think at all.

She appeared to be about 10 years older than me, which suits me just fine. Monday morning of the second week, I passed through the area where I usually encountered her, but instead of running. Perhaps I could contrive some reason to step outonto the gantries and walkways in the silks before we were ordered toremove them.So obviously I did not have a very high opinion of Simba when she soobviously began drawing attention to herself as we left the trainingrooms in the upper levels of the cavern.

"They have been together for a long time. It did not feel right for me to hone in on their time alone. And thus, I am free tonight to take in the sights." I am not even sure why I tell him that. But it is the truth of the matter. So I let that statement settle into his brain."I repeat, you're a strange one." Camulus.
