i feel like, perhaps, i could have lied to Cascade and it could have gone better
but at least he . . .kind of listened. . .
sort of. . . .
but also not really. . .
i am not well versed in baring the truth myself, i am much more adept at holding it close and never speaking it
so. . .to have my actions so quickly dismissed. . .i feel. . .not great
but at least he allowed my friends to join, which is of great comfort
