Need a thread with Don, but don't have a post for it and don't feel like starting one? Stick it here. Please note date, time of day, location, and any relevant circumstances.

Yes... I know you feel s-strongly negatively about them. And... I do not find your reasoning f-faulty, even if... the circumstances you describe are much different from m-many of the ones I have seen...
But this... this is s-something aside from even that. This was... forced upon you...
[In other words, it wouldn't really have mattered what it was - the sheer fact it was being forced on Don is what makes it bad.]

Don't change the subject.

We're talking about the things drugs do to a person, and how no one sane would ever take them on purpose.
no subject
And yet I have d-done so purposefully. [Is he insane? Honestly, he isn't really sure anymore sometimes.]
no subject
And it's unacceptable.
[The law has been laid down. Don't mess this up, Robert.]

... When I began my... s-self-destructive patterns of drug utilization... I did it in order to feel c-comfortable and wanted. It was... enjoyable to Benjamin, that I was involved in s-something that he viewed as mere recreational activity. It assisted in my social a-anxieties, and it made... communication artificially simplified. It was, in essence, a s-substitute for emotional and mental connections with others...

[He'll be back later.]
[Maybe.]

Robert continues to stare at the door for a solid minute, waiting for any sign that the ninja is even aware he's still there. When it doesn't come, he gathers any remaining courage he has and knocks softly on the door.]
no subject
It's open.
no subject
In lieu of asking the question, Robert opens the door and peers inside like the entranceway might be booby-trapped. Any sign that Don might want him around?]

Robert does not move from his spot, conspicuously. He almost looks afraid, which is definitely not normal for him. Still, he doesn't leave, though he certainly seems like he might be considering it.]

... Sh-shall I leave you be?
no subject
Do you have anything to say?
no subject
I... apologize for what has o-occurred today, and the time prior. I will take steps to ensure it... does not occur a s-second time.
[But he's not backing down on his opinion.]
no subject
Thank you.
no subject
... I will... t-take my leave now...
[He starts to walk out of the room, then, though with an obvious reluctance. He really hates how much is hovering in the air between them - it just makes everything feel wrong.]
