"I'm less and less sure I can though, with each passing day. I find myself questioning my sanity all the time and ... I'm just afraid, y'know. Of the moment when I'll find I really have nothing more to say or do - nothing to live for."

   "--I guess...you're right, un. Everyone questions themselves that..."

   "Even I do. Sometimes I believe I question far too many things for my own good. You can't let your thoughts get the best of you, I suppose, un."

[deidara-no-kokoro]

"Am I cool? All I do is just ... trying to make up for my hollow inside. Trying to cover the darkness, not to let others fall in there. I don't see anything cool in all that."

   "--..."

   "We all have something that makes us seem like the bad guy, Sasuke. If I told you my worries...heh, you'd think I was demented, un. I guess in other words we all have our demons, but you can't dwell upon them either, un. It's not something cool, but something you have to live pass."

[deidara-no-kokoro]

"...you're too nice to me, Deidara. I'm grateful but ... I don't deserve it."

   "--Why? You're a cool guy, Sasuke. Why wouldn't you deserve it, hm?"

[deidara-no-kokoro]

"Ne, I thought your kage's pretty much always bossing you around... one would suspect you're glad to be able to catch your breath in the moments when not." *pokes cheek*

   "Y--Yeah." He brushes his finger away awkwardly. "I'm actually glad he's off my chest today, un."

   "We could do something, y'know? Now that we both have free time--"

[hunnyysenpai]

"Lost at a cake convention, eh? Yeah, that sounds plausible. Glad you're ok, anyhow, it's good to see you around again."

"I didn’t mind being lost there though…hehehe."

"But thanks, Sasuke-chan! What’ve you been up to lately?"

[hunnyysenpai]

"Hey you, short stuff. Haven't seen you for ages, have things been ok?"

"Uwah!~ Sasuke-chan! Well, you see…there was this cake convention and I begged everyone to lemme go and somehow I got lost…and now I’m back here!!"

[deidara-no-kokoro]

"I know, I know... and thank you. But you've enough things to worry about without me bothering you with my shit, so.... yeah."

   "Oi, I always have time for you, un. When the Tsuchikage isn't bossing me around, y'know? Just trust me, yeah."

[deidara-no-kokoro]

"I guess if I just choose not to dwell on ... certain things, I'm fine enough. I do miss some people though, for example you. Have you been ok?"

   "--I...see. I'm fine, I always am, un."

   "Oi, if something is bothering you, you can always talk to me, y'know?"
