“He says: ‘The capitalistic world killed the artist in me.’ He sees as coming from outside all that comes from inside. I know the artist in him must have been very weak to be defeated by this obstacle at all. Limitations, restrictions, defeats, come from within. I am fully responsible for my own restrictions.”

"To a special someone,

You don't know how much I simply want to say 'I love you'.

Days go by, yet I wish the best for you. I want you to live, laugh, smile, and you be you.

I don't want to see you sad. I know there are bad days, yet I know you are strong and you can get back up. Rain makes flowers grow stronger.

I know for certain that one day... You will bloom like the flower you are. I love you dearly. I love you so much, friend.

Please understand the meanings behind each flower I send you. I beg of you. Keeping silent as a gardenia makes it painful for me. I wish you the best. Let's not waste any day. Thank you...for letting me meet you.

I shall continue to wait...till the gardenias bloom."

i posted this edit on tt and since its getting banned i thought people would enjoy it here!

im losing my marbles over the fact that elita SAID that she was happy that dee had someone close to him. she said she was happy he found someone like that but he had to balance hanging out with orion and his work like WHICH IS GENUINE GOOD ADVICE.

and then dee still said that orion was insignificant... he didn't need to somehow prove that orion wasn't a distraction. he didn't need to make it clear that orion didn't mean anything to him. elita knows that orion means something. and she congratulated dee on finding someone like that. and then dee still turned around and denounced it. ohhhh my heart.

and the fact that ORION HEARD THE WHOLE CONVERSATION..... it's not even miscommunication, orion has all of the context. it's just flat out dee denying that he means anything to him. and dee means so so much to orion. i cannot see any way this will end badly /silly

YOU'RE RIGHT AND THIS IS PERFECT SUMMARY OF WHAT I WAS TRYING TO CONVEYED OH MY GOD I'M GOING TO KISS YOU

People were saying it's Elita's fault like NO! Don't baby D-16 here, it's all him. In that moment, he felt that his feelings for Orion were a weakness or a wound that the public could sneer and poke at but that's not it at all??? He was trying to overcompensate for his lack of security and and in turn said things that hurt Orion.

We all say things that we didn't think through and when it hurts people, WE SUCK IT UP AND TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY. There's no miscommunication, that boy did this to himself
