So that's it, huh? Calling it quits already? That's all it is, you know. You shouldn't be showing any sign that you're suffering... That's weakness at its basest form. You're strong enough to take care of yourself, and you know it. Settling for any less than that is just... Demeaning. Insulting, even. You give in too much and before you know it, you're going to have people watching over your every effort. You don't need anyone swarming over you for something you can walk off on your own... So don't you dare show such weakness.

Zennadere, chimera-based earth demon. Source of my stubbornness and secretive side. Hiding your pain can be a boon for a number of reasons, especially when it comes to not troubling others with your own problems... But being difficult to read can be a bane for those around you who want to get reactions out of you. I tend to hide my troubles because I despise the pity and attention of others. It's the attitude of a perfectionist, really, but it once again leads to negative feelings towards me because I close myself off.
