Question: If someone tells you to do whatever's necessary in order to ensure you don't crystalise from chroma deprivation, what does that mean to you?

My stance on who to say such too is the same. As is what it encompasses, which is good to have corroborated by those other than myself.

I hadn't realised what individual interpretations might colour the statement to sound like until relatively recently.

If I may, I'd suggest what someone takes that as says most about what that person expects, in such a situation.

People's expectations differ.

[peerlesscucumber]

It's what I believe, in this case and in others. The mismatch of expectations only becomes clarified when the difference is brought up in a way where all involved can see the discrepancies.

Have you encountered many of such expectation differences during your time here, in regards to the Moonblessed you interact with?

Hm. I don't believe I have.

Then again, I rarely have expectations of people. I'd rather deal with what is, rather than what I hope or fear it might be.
