Damage Control

Damage control will always be a form of whitewashing. No matter how much you try, you're covering something up. But at one point, people will eventually make the pieces fit. Or try to guess how the pieces fit. To cover it all up, you have to tell half-truths or maybe even lie. All these, just to protect a secret.

Very few secrets are taken to grave, for the dumb reason that, sometimes, people just can't keep their mouths shut and their hands tied. Secrets are supposed to be kept from other people. And by other people, I mean those morons who shouldn't be knowing about the secret at all (They are not even supposed to know that there was a secret in the first place!). You're a big moron for letting our secret out. I'm an even bigger moron because I told them* you leaked the secret out. Me, a moron, hah! Not really, but I have to badmouth myself to feel less guilty about what I did.

I have my own secrets to keep. And I'm willing to protect them no matter how much damage control I'll have to do, no matter how many times I have to betray you.

Crystal?
