		<description><![CDATA[My protege gives his goodbye speech, and sees the other side of me.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As my protege gave his goodbye speech, I browsed a few songs in my music library that would, in the past, have come in handy.  I was looking over some slow, depressing R&amp;B, and sorrowful alternative.</p>
<p>Yet this time around, what my soul really craved was Rob Zombie and Rammstein.  I&#8217;m definitely back.  So I&#8217;ve switched some things back to my original internet screen name, IronWynch.</p>
<p>IronWynch is a role play character whose name was poking a bit of fun at the so-called women&#8217;s empowerment trend of spelling woman or women like &#8220;womyn&#8221;.  I spelled wench like &#8220;wynch&#8221;.  At some point I made brief appearances as characters called &#8220;Whyre&#8221; &#8220;Bytch&#8221; and &#8220;Skynk&#8221; as jokes.</p>
<p>The IronWynch character was one of the first of the ITC mythos I allowed to peek out into public internet life.  Her original body was abducted by aliens doing experiments on humans to attempt to culture flesh &#8220;wrappers&#8221; for robots.  So she basically had synthetic innards and skeleton stuffed inside a human skin, but the skin was a complete organism in and of itself.</p>
<p>The name suited my personality, so I wore it around until I got deeper into Lovecraft fandom and went through the nice me phase that led me to be okay with being viewed as some kind of kitten.  Then Kthulah became my &#8220;evil kitty&#8221; name since so many others had been overused.</p>
<p>Now, I&#8217;ll be using IronWynch more often.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t really feel numb&#8230;just&#8230;unsurprised and merciless.  He did all that blah blah, and then asked me how I feel about it.  I told him that was no longer his business.  So he gets all huffy and tells me to have a nice life.  Whatever.  What&#8230;I&#8217;m supposed to slash my wrists or something?</p>
<p>I still care about him as a person, but because of that, I will do nothing to ease whatever agony he claims to be going through over his decision (which I doubt).  Nor will I try to make him feel better about it.  He has failed me.  My natural reaction to someone failing me is to not trust them with whatever it was they broke.  I don&#8217;t care if it was on purpose or an accident.  If I give someone my heart and they mishandle it, they don&#8217;t get it again unless they prove they can handle it&#8230;and thusfar, nobody has done that yet.</p>
<p>I guess I&#8217;m not worth it to them.  I can accept that.  I don&#8217;t fit their &#8220;grocery list&#8221;.  I&#8217;m used to this by now.   Though I haven&#8217;t been dumped alot in my life until I started dating in Israel, in a mere four years, I&#8217;ve gotten it streamlined.  I&#8217;m a quick study, and one thing I have learned well is that if there is nothing else to save, save my dignity.</p>
<p>Whatever else they may think is lacking in me, none of them can say that they broke me&#8230;or really even harmed a hair on the ass of my Lycan soul.</p>
