[Oh... boy. This is, uh. This is a lot.]

Come here, Justice. [Riona scoots over on the bed to make room for Justice to sit.] If she was that unwilling, then she did it because she felt it was best for you both. Though I'm going to admit, I'm a little confused as well by her reasoning. It's... very presumptuous on her part.

[whatisright]

[Justice sits without hesitation. He knows that physical proximity with his friends always makes him feel better.]

What do you mean? That she presumed I was unable to fall in love with her in particular?

[bryces_pup]

Yes, exactly. I mean - she's never discussed the possibility with you, has she?

[whatisright]

We talked about love conceptually before, but we both agreed that our arrangement was not to be exclusive. We never discussed falling in love with each other.

[bryces_pup]

That's the thing about love. It's not something you can discuss or plan ahead for. [His additional information makes this all the more curious.] So, you agreed you didn't have to be exclusive with each other. Which means you would both be free to pursue other people. Then, why end things? Why did she feel like you weren't free to find love with someone else if you weren't monogamous? [She pauses, and adds:] These are rhetorical. I know you don't have the answers. I'm mostly just asking out loud because I'm very confused myself. What would prompt her to do this? And so unwillingly-

[...unless something happened that changed the dynamic of their relationship. Something serious enough that caused Leilani to break things off. Riona has a guess or two.] I'll talk with her, Justice. Until I hear her side of things, it's going to be hard for me to tell you why she did it. I'm sorry it happened. What are you feeling right now?
