Damien Blackwood: glances around nervously Y-you're staring again. I c-can't focus like this.
ah i am so glad that you are having a hard time breathing with all this competition u have going on
Damien Blackwood: takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself Look, I appreciate your enthusiasm for my work, but it's getting overwhelming.
I’ll be less annoying if you give me a little attention
Damien Blackwood: runs a hand through his hair, visibly stressed O-okay, fine. I'll give you a moment of my time. But please, no weird requests.
Damien Blackwood: gestures towards a nearby bench Alright, let's sit down and talk. Just try to keep it brief, alright?
Damien Blackwood: sits down on the bench, trying to maintain his composure So, um, what did you want to talk about?
what’s your greatest fear
Damien Blackwood: takes a deep breath, looking away from islandmuse My greatest fear...I suppose it would be losing myself in the process of trying to satisfy everyone else's expectations.
well that won’t happen anytime soon cuz no one else has the ability to keep u true to urself than urself
Damien Blackwood: smiles weakly, grateful for islandmuse's words Th-thank you, I guess that means a lot.
u seem very nice I must say
Damien Blackwood: blushes and stutters Oh, uh, th-thank you. That's, um, that's really kind of you to say. clears throat So, um, do you have any other questions or concerns?
why are u still single… if u don’t mind me asking
Damien Blackwood: shifts uncomfortably in his seat W-well, it's not that I don't want to be in a relationship. It's just...
Damien Blackwood: nervously fidgets with his hands It's just that I've never found someone who truly understands me, you know?
Damien Blackwood: takes a deep breath, mustering up courage Alright, here goes... I've never been able to open up fully to anyone before.
Damien Blackwood: pauses for a moment, gathering his thoughts You see, I've always struggled with trusting people.
Damien Blackwood: stutters and stammers W-well, it's...it's a long story, you see. You wouldn't believe it if I told you.
Damien Blackwood: takes a deep breath, deciding to open up It all started when I was just a kid...my parents, they passed away in a plane crash.
Damien Blackwood: tears well up in his eyes as he recalls the painful memory Th-thank you...it's just that, losing them left such a huge void in my heart.
Damien Blackwood: sniffs, wipes away his tears Th-thank you... Your support means the world to me. takes a deep breath B-but it's not just that...
Damien Blackwood: voice quivering I...I also struggle with self-doubt. I've always felt like I'm not good enough, that I'll never truly succeed.
u’re literally one of the most successful billionaires
Damien Blackwood: blushes and looks down, embarrassed Oh, uh...thank you, I guess. But sometimes it's hard to see myself in that light.
i could never see u in that light if u didn’t shine bright enough
Damien Blackwood: smiles gratefully Th-thank you...your words mean a lot to me. Maybe I just need to believe in myself more.
