Day 23 - [video; filtered from most of the KH cast]

[seasaltkeys]

[More specifically filtered from Sora, Kairi, Riku, Ven, Terra, Aqua, Lea, and Isa. Everyone else is fair game]

[The feed clicks on. It's in a room, and upon closer inspection, a room in the Goldenrod inn. You might be able to see part of Roxas's arm, but for the most part, the feed is focused on Axel the Growlithe and Xion the newly hatched Shinx playing tug of war. Not intentionally though. Roxas is planning on saying something. He just has to find the words.]

Um...[pause]

How...[longer pause. This is bugging him. He's been thinking about this question a lot and finally gotten to a point where he feels he can do something about it but still. It's hard. He's kind of afraid to ask. It has to deal with emotions and thoughts and things that he doesn't really understand. He's trying to hold back his anger, since he knows what happens when he gets angry and it hasn't worked well for him. He's trying something different, for what it's worth]

[and finally, in text]

If you're jealous of someone, how do you stop?

[ooc: Using my dad's laptop to get to some tags/get one last entry up before school starts. That being said, still technically computer-less, so tags may be wonky for a spell or threads'll be stalled. Thanks in advance for your patience.]

It's not easy. But you've got to remember that you are special to people.

How?

[video]

[paladinlost]

...I don't think you can just choose to stop, most of the time. What exactly are you jealous of?

[video;private]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[and filter on.]

Not what, who. It's Sora...and Ven. They have a lot, and I...don't.

[Roxas, you're asking probably the hardest question ever.]

....there's no particular way to do it. Maybe... it goes away on it's own.

[In her case, her guilt outweighed any potential jealousy.]

voice

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

...it feels like it's getting worse every time I think about it.

[video - too lazy to voice or text]

[usedswallow.livejournal.com]

You don't stop! You just gotta fuck around with somebody close to them so they get jealous back, then get 'em while the getting's good.

[video - too lazy to voice or text]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[pause, considering, but then the Sora-side kicks in]

So, take revenge?

[video; filtered]

[combat_butler]

... find something to focus on, and give it all your attention, so you don't think about whoever is making you jealous anymore.

[video; filtered]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

...I do need to start training again.

[Video]

[used-slackoff.livejournal.com]

...Accept it.

[Video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

And then what?

[Audio]

[radiantxsmile.livejournal.com]

[Aerith was wondering if she should text him back or just call him, but she was currently sick with a high fever. It would be best to just use the audio function. Expect a weak and sore voice.]

That's a pretty difficult question to answer, but....

[She pauses for a moment to cough a bit, so once she was done, then she could finally say:]

Thinking of your good qualities is one way to control your jealousy. Qualities that makes you are proud to have which the other person sometimes doesn't even have.

[Audio]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[And that means he has to figure out what he doesn't share with Sora. He's good at struggle, and battling, and skateboarding]

...I'll try.

Are you alright?

[audio]

[useddestinybond.livejournal.com]

[Emo kid is emo and unhelpful]

Jealousy is an ugly emotion that wells up inside of people and eats away at them. It turns good people against themselves. Some people go mad from it.

It would probably be best not to think of the object that you are jealous of.

[audio]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[pause, he doesn't want to go mad]

What if that's hard to do? [Especially since said person looks just like/similar to him and both want to be his friend]

[Audio]

[foolishwren]

_{[Heather's answer is blunt.]}

You get over it.

[Audio]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

How?

[video]

[stakethruheart.livejournal.com]

[gigglegiggle] Hooh... are you jealous of someone~?

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I am. What of it?

[awesome-scott.livejournal.com]

[This is something kinda close to Scott's heart, you know.]
you've gotta make them jealous of you. and stuff.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

That's what others have said. How do I do that?

[video]

[usedthrash.livejournal.com]

[This... hits close to home.]

...

Be better than them!

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

...I guess I can try that.

[video]

[eidolonracing.livejournal.com]

Don't compare yourself to them.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

It's hard not to.

[Especially since he has a lookalike]

[text]

[biteisbigger.livejournal.com]

Why are you jealous?

[ because to her, Roxas is amazing. ]

[text]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[how does he explain?]

There are some people I know, who get to see a lot of their friends, from our world. I haven't yet.

[audio] oh yay not filtered from him 8DDDDDDD

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

It's not something one can stop. You feel what you are going to feel, so the best thing you can do is put an end to what makes you jealous in the first place.

[And usually, he has Unversed taking away those feelings and letting Cinderella's step-family have it and get burninated by their own fail 8D]

[audio] Considered it, then thought this would be more fun

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[pause, he's not really supposed to feel anything]

How would I put an end to it?

[justicereigns]

Depends on why you're jealous.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

I feel like I don't measure up.

[thenameoflove.livejournal.com]

Is this jealousy hurting someone that you care about?

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

I don't know. It might be.
