"Then you ssssshould not be concerned about what Amphi'ssss friendsss are like," She replied, nodding sagely; she had been with someone whose perspective of friendship was more than just skewed for so many years, so Roch's little evaluation on it didn't really phase her. Sure, it was different from her own definition, but so was Thanatos', and she was never one to try to force her opinions on others, "Ssssince it sssoundsss to me like you could jusssst walk away or back down if you need to."

"Sure I can," Roch said. "Usually," he added, looking away. "This one's a bit of a pain in the a**, I ain't gonna lie. She keeps followin' me, and now she's pals with my best friend--the first one on the list of people I'd willingly die for," he muttered darkly. "She's forcin' her way into my music club, she's even met my gramps and Monica, who knows how long it'll be before she squirms her way into meetin' my dad? Although that one might be in my favor," he added before shaking his head.
"How the jack do you walk away when all they do is follow?" he asked her. "Stubbornly tellin' you that you're gonna be their friend and you're gonna LIKE it, jackdammit--well, maybe not in those words, but--" He groaned. "I was sort of hopin' your reaper would talk her into not stalkin' me. Cuz I don't wanna actually HURT her, I just wanna get RID of her."

She listened, all the while looking more, and more concerned, "Wouldn't it be easssier to accept her assss a friend rather than go through all of thissss? You can't... Cut off relationsssss with every persssson who hassss a possssesssive friend, sssso why not sssssimply accept one new one?"
With a frown, she paused, shaking her head and looking rather apologetic, "He will not do it. It issss not in hisss nature to do ssssomething like that." Not even because he is unkind, but because he prefers watching the world than trying to change anything.

Why couldn't he? The punk boil went silent, looking away from the snake for a long moment as he thought it over. Well, he decided silently, probably because she was cute, she was a LOT like the type he had the biggest problem with--he could easily see himself starting to like her more than he wanted to, then another repeat of the whole Xiu debacle, possibly with a side of the Freya/Herryk problem tossed in--and all he'd be left with was the knowledge he'd jacked up. Again.
The easiest way to deal with all this was to avoid it in the first place. No hurt, no foul, everyone was happy. Except she absolutely wasn't letting that way of dealing with it happen. So the next easiest way to deal with it was... what? Just choose not to like her? He could possibly do that... maybe. If she would jackin' STOP song seducing him. He was sensitive to that sort of stuff, okay?
He looked at Biskoto, smiling a bit wryly. "Yeah," he said. "Sort of looks like I'm stuck, doesn't it?" He stood, stretching his arms over his head. It was no wonder that the song that often hit him hardest had the first line of "Good morning heartache."
"Thanks," he said. "For the talk." Then he was gone, leaving only a poof of smoke behind him.
