I like being in my own spotlight. Not that I want it directly pointed at me, but knowing that I have the freedom to be 'out there' or not is liberating. To be famous or popular is to be held to a higher standard by others, when the standards should be set by one's self.
That makes sense... But I also feel you may be overthinking it a little. I mean, he's an artist, not a movie star... it's kind of a niche fame, you know?
Ah... maybe I said too much... I'm not sure how to interpret "as it comes from you"...
I simply trust your judgment, Jamie. I do not want my ears to become a focal point, so if you believe I have a spark even knowing me longer than some, then... I am happy.
Oh, you don't? Hmmm. If it ever comes up in the future, like you're about to meet someone for a date and you don't want them to like you just for your ears, I bet there are some hairstyles or accessories you could wear to conceal them temporarily.
Yes. Perhaps I will wear a slightly larger pair of cat ears to gauge an initial reaction. Then once I can judge accordingly, I can make the reveal of my actual ears.
I am kidding, of course.
But I think for now, I will focus on my job. Regardless of what changes may occur, I must continue to work hard.

Also, I don't know what you're talking about. You've totally got a spark! Even without kitty ears!

Do I...?
As it comes from you, I will happily accept this.
