"Can You Handle Your Emotions?"

Emotions are... eh. We all have them, whether we want to or not. Some people have control over their emotions, and some people let their emotions control them. Where does your character fall on this spectrum? More importantly, what's their relationship with their emotions like? Do they bury everything deep, deep down inside, or are they the first one to cry over a sappy movie? Do they even know how they feel about what's going on inside? Pretty meta stuff.

• No blank top-levels.
• Instead, characters are to respond to the proposed question: can you handle your emotions? / are you in touch with your feelings?
• Get deep. Look within. Hear, think feel... or don't.

Isn't that true about most things in life, though? We haven't stopped living yet.

[misjudge]

I guess that's true. That's definitely a decent way to look at it.

Mm. Although my sensitivity isn't something I owe anyone an apology for, I do at times get the sense that it's burdensome for the people around me. Do you ever feel like that?

[misjudge]

Yeah, I do. I think I've gotten better about feeling that way, though. I spent a lot of time alone a while back partly due to that.

I don't think people who are good for think it's burdensome.

We select the people to trust through a filter of our emotions, then. Seems like there should be simpler methods, but I'll take it.
