"I truly meant that," I reply. "And, no, I'm certainly not average. But you're more open about things than I am."

"Are you so sure? You're the one who decided to go against her childhood upbringing to try out a relationship with a girl... that is of course the wolves you were raised by were all lesbians!" Anima says with a joking voice.

I snicker at Anima's comment. "That would be interesting," I reply. "But no, they were not." I take a sip of wine. "Just because I chose a different path than my family doesn't make me more open to reveal things about myself."

Anima moves in closer to Yumi in a seductitve fashion, pressing her body slightly against Yumi. she gingerly places a hand on Yumi's cheek. "Don't worry, I think I can find a way to get you to tell me even your dirtiest secrets..." She says lightly into Yumi's ear.

I grin. "Really now?" I say. "And how do you plan on doing that?"

"Something that you'll have to wait for... seeing as we have company and all... but don't worry... it'll come..."

I continue grinning. "All right," I say. "I await it."

Anima stands back, releasing Yumi. "So, if you spite tradition, why do you honor your heritage so much?"

"Just because you don't support its beliefs does not mean that you cannot respect it," I reply. "I respect my heritage because it is part of me."

"But you do everything to spite your traditions as well... it's like a paradox tearing at each other, with no decided winner. I've never really put any weight on heritage... I am what I decided to make of me."

I nod. "That is respectable," I say. "And it also makes a lot of sense..."

"You have no idea how much that would have helped me..." I mutter. I take a large gulp of wine and set down the glass, which still has about 1/4 of what I put into it. I sit down on the bed and look at Anima.

I smile. "You're right!" I reply. "So what do you do to relax?"
