From the windOw of a 3rd perSon

He is one with a mind which searches for a meaning to life and is intellectually very stimulating. He perceives things with an eye for opportunity and has an admirable manner of expressing himself verbally. His vibrant mental capacity sometimes makes him seem confined or restless.

He is able to assert himself with ease and dynamism, in which she finds him to have an intriguing sense of sensuality and sexuality. He is quite compulsive about whatever attracts or repels him. She believes he is aware of his pronounced power potential because it never elicits a bland response from others. This underlying sting of his. Such raw energy that he possessed can be anything from healing to almost murderous. His make for being a formidable lover – or enemy.

She thinks he is grappling with the idea of affection and love; striving to gain an objective view of these emotional involvements without becoming uninvolved altogether. In order to gain this objectivism, she finds him at times emotionally alienated. A thing she yearns for and struggle with.

She's basically a hippie Christian girl. She’s afraid she is becoming one of those self-righteous superior a**holes. However, much of what she does is boundaried by the illusive moral compass. She had thought of being a nun. If anyone should asked what happened, why that didn’t, "Puberty."

She is pretty hard-core. Her thoughts on the how things work and should work are clear. It's apparent from how she talks, she's an idealist.

You can tell she is a bit stunned by him and she is not sure how to deal with it. She’d already know that being with him may be strenuous and challenging - but it is also passionate and engaging.

She is one of those people who cannot understand why anyone would ever ever want to do harm consciously. What these two characters - both with passionate beliefs – opposed at times to one another ideologically - and yet amused with the other's conviction - have; as is obvious, a rarity.

To some degree, she sometimes becomes so disenchanted from the very lack of him that she feels she had to check out entirely. But she realizes she should appreciate what is and not just what could be. There is multiple viewpoints of one picture. Each may be contradictory as it is all true. It's not wholly in opposition. She never wants to come off as being ridiculous. She believes in God, she believes in a just universe. She also, because she knew him, believes that if anyone is truly good natured in the most dire of circumstances, he would be the one.

So, on some level, she holds him in contempt. And on some level, he holds her in contempt. It's not a question of being diametrically opposed. They really talk. It feels real. He makes things real to her. What is great about the way it is; is that it does not become a petty argument. He listens. She argues. He argues. She listens. At one point, he grins at her, and you can see her suddenly get nervous. In that moment, she is not her beliefs; she is a girlfriend, nervous. Nervous about the future, and how this dynamic will play itself out.


She is surprised. How and why an unlikely pair worked, came this far and why it dodges its own traps so deftly. She’s amazed she cared for him this much.
