Suddenly I want to tickle ita until she cries.
Time to go home.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

Robin, as with many people, I hold myself to a much crueler standard than I hold anyone else. It's an internal thing.
And I've NEVER liked crying in front of people. Very invested in not doing so, for various healthy and unhealthy reasons.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Mostly I'm against crying when you're not sad.
Why on earth? That's the good part of crying.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Not ticklish. I do tend to get irritated and hit people though.

Oh, god, me too. I was probably 28 before anyone other than my parents and one college roommate had ever seen me actually cry.

Oh, not me. I do happy tears sometimes, even. Crazy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
After watching her get misty about some rather ordinary stimulus, I asked the ex-GF: "Do you cry every day?"
To which she replied, "Just about. It's just a release. Why? How often do you cry?"
"Uh...every couple years? Though I will get choked up in key movie scenes, but only if it's a good movie and I'm very involved."

Huh? How? Maybe I should add "or happy," but still -- I've never been one much for the happy tears. Triumphant I can make peace with, if you see the distinction. So -- escape movies, but not weddings.
No, for me, crying used to be catharsis of the negative. Now it's too often something with no emotion attached to it. I don't see anything good about that.

I cry at all kinds of silly things. Sad movies, sad TV shows, sad songs, joyous versions of all of the above.
I perhaps need to get a tighter rein on my emotions.
