Bravado. It's an unintentional marking, because it's an unintentional Thing. Experitmentation. "What does This button do?" We'll see. And I'm mine, and whosoever wants me, damn well better ask.

"Everyting about this that traps you, all that itches, inside, under the layers, the outside. It's all in your head. All in everyone's heads. Walls help define pathways, and any wall can be broken, if it must." But I said nothing. Because i knew that, one day, he'd-- they'd-- figure it all out, for him[them]self[/ves].
