Another way of saying I don't want you to become something or someone else to gain acceptance,
respect, or trust (as I would
reject what you became too), I don't want you to speak another language (including mine, as I'd still reject you if you spoke my language) or talk about other things, I don't want you to go by someone else's program or narrative (as I'd reject you even if you were going by my program), I don't want you around me at all, in the simplest way you know how to say it, which is pretty
fucking simple.
The wildfire was trying to stay and disregard anybody rejecting/opposing it, even after
people let it know it could go fuck itself, not because it held anything sacred there, but mostly for it's own image. It wasn't really stubborn, but it didn't want to look weak (the way it thought many other
people were, weaker than itself), and looking stubborn was something other than looking weak (so for no good reason). The wildfire wasn't really a
true optimist, just someone that thought it would win it all and walk over all the losers in its path on the way, and would do anything to keep that mentality, from
war to
lies to maintain itself, to fuel itself, the
lie of all lies blinding and burning everyone with it's false light and warmth (the kind of light and warmth that took everything from many families who had built a house in its path, only to be be rendered to ashes,
smoke, and rubble when the warlord/wildfire was done with it).
