I've been told that I walk through life oblivious to everything that's going on around me. In fact, I've been told this many times. Then of course, I've also been told that I'm a bastard, that I'm cold-hearted, that I drink to much, I have a death wish, I'm a pervert, and that I'm a womanizer. So I guess you can say that I don't really listen when people start talking to me. I have selective hearing. Honestly. I also manipulate words in a sentence to make it sound like I want it to…like "No way, get away from me pervert," is automatically formated to say, "Take me, I'm yours."
…
Okay, so maybe that makes no sense, but the point is, when people talk to me, I see nothing. I walk through life with my eyes closed and earplugs in.
Why?
Because I've learned. I've learned that when you walk through life with all senses alert, you see things…that you can't change. You do things…you say things…because you pay attention, because I was ambitious, because…
I've killed people.
I was fully aware. I knew exactly what I was doing.
Innocent people.
I knew. I knew when I snapped my fingers that the fire would consume them and they would die.
They had families.
But I still did it. All my senses were booming, my eyes were perfect, I could hear perfectly, I almost smell the fear in the room…
They had children.
People wonder why I pay no attention to anyone, or anything.
It's because I've learned.
Faith: Well, that was in the PoV of Mustang...not exactly romance. I've always kind of wondered how it was that Mustang got to be so damn blind when it comes to Riza...or anything...Hence the non-romantic stuff. More coming up. Yay.
