Re: Iago

[makethestory]

Tell me about the Cat King.

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

[This is tougher. Less focused.]

Power // Sex // Want // Need // Approval // Manipulate // Warm // Calm

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

[ Never heard something so jumbled. But she definitely caught one word. ]

Tell me about... need.

You need him? He needs you?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

Yes // I need him // He's mine

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

What do you need him for, exactly?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

Because he's mine now // He wants me // He is strong // Ruthless // He understands

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

[ 'Mine', huh? That's certainly a healthy attachment... ]

Does he know he's 'yours'?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

Yes // He thinks he owns me

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

Does he?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

I will scorch the very ground at his feet if he betrays me // I will paper his walls with his own blood // I care about him // No one is better for him than me // He can't have anyone but me // I can have whatever I want

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

[ My high school English teacher would have a field day with this. It's not a charitable thought, but neither is what she just heard. ]

When you say you 'care' about him... what does that mean to you?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

I want him to be happy // I want to comfort him // I care about what he does

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

And would that change if he decided he wanted someone else?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

There can't be anyone else // I'll destroy them from the inside out

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

Even if it would hurt the Cat King?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

Especially if it hurt him // I would do it to hurt him

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

And you only need him?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

I love him // I loved him

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

[ It's a guess but- ]



And he didn't realize? Or he didn't... reciprocate.

Othello, I mean.

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

[There are feelings above and beyond words, that cannot be expressed in speech or thought or letters.

This will take a moment.]

Betrayal // For that whore of a wife // I was unable to tell him // It was unspoken for so long // He was always mine

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

[ No surprise here. But she can't help but delve. ]

Do you know how he felt about you? Did he love you in return?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

He was older // He was my superior // He didn't have a chance

[With the force of a vengeful scream:]

No

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

[ 'Motivationless' my ass. Shit. ]

Do you see the same qualities in the Cat King?

Re: Iago

[knowmyplace]

Yes // I won't fail this time // He makes me happy // Fewer barriers now // I didn't even have to get rid of Edwin

Re: Iago

[makethestory]

Which qualities are they? What is it that you're so drawn to?
