"Don't make it complicated," she said.
But when the average human brain is intricate enough to support vastly more possible states of being than there are particles in the universe; when everyone is alone and true interpersonal connection is nothing more than an elaborate fantasy; when the issue at hand is exactly that fantastical attempt, for one astronomically complex organ of perception and thought to attempt to fool itself into believing it can even begin to comprehend and relate to the inner workings of another such astronomically complex organ of perception and thought… "complicated" is better than the best we could possibly hope for. Compared to the real impenetrability of the situation; "complicated" is more straightforward than a desert road, more transparent than clean air.
"Yeah, ok. But just... don't make it any MORE complicated, alright?"
