'No,' Chance replied, stiffening at the question. 'He didn't. Can't imagine what he would have done if he did...' he said quietly.

*Lilith hesitated a moment, afraid of making Chance more uncomfortable. Still, she was curious....* "Is he really that bad...?"

'For all I know he's dead now,' Chance replied quickly, biting back his anger. And if he is, it's probably my fault.

"You mean..." *Lilith didn't finish the thought... She didn't know this guy very well at all but she felt horrible. She dropped her head a little, unsure of what to say. So she just said the only thing she could think of.* "I'm sorry..."

'Why are YOu sorry? It's not like YOU'RE the one who made him start drinking.' d**n it, why can't I shut up while I'm ahead? he thought with a sigh. 'I'm sorry. I shouldn't be complaining to you, or whatever....... I mean you hardly even know me and here I am, telling you my sob-story,' Chance focusing on his shoes.

*Lilith looked at him, her eyes showing much more emotion than they normally did.* "Don't apologize for that... No one's shared anything personal with me since I was little. It's nice to finally have someone talk to me. You're not making me listen... I want to listen..."

'Yeah, well I still feel like a pain in the ass,' Chance shrugged, making an attempt at a smile.

*Lilith shook her head lightly with a bit of a smile.* "Well you're not... Believe me, I'd let you know if you were..."

'Somehow, I don't have a hard time believing that,' Chance said, grinning.

*Lilith laughed a bit at that, which was odd considering how long it had been since she'd laughed.* "What can I say? I'm a little... blunt... and definitely not the friendliest person in the world."

'Nah, you're plenty friendly, I just don't think you're used to it,' Chance said thoughtfully. 'That didn't come out right.... I mean maybe you aren't anymore, which I don't believe, at any rate, you used to be friendly, or seem like you still want to. Even if you don't realize it or like it or whatever,' he paused for a moment, trying to figure out what he just said. 'And I think I just managed to confuse myself....'

((You know you're tired when you nearly fall out of your chair laughing at that. )) *Lilith laughed softly, shaking her head at him.* "Yeah, I think you got a little carried away there... but somehow, I think I understand... sort of."

(((lol. Not my fault! Sometimes you plan out what you say before you say it, and sometimes you don't. Chance just happened to have one of those moments where he didn't.....and should have.)))
'Good, then I'm not insane,' he said and nodded, not bothering to mention that he didn't know what proved it.

"Now I didn't say that..." *Lilith smirked slightly at him.* "In any case, let's just say that I'm not friendly like you are... I may want to talk to people every now and then, but I'd never go up to someone and start a conversation."

'There are very few people who will; which is what people like me are for,' Chance said. 'Either that or making sure that everyone gets the daily recommended amount of weirdness in their day,' he grinned.
