Sure!  

To get back on topic, though, I really hate driving up long winding roads on the sides of mountains. Especially when there's no railing. I just feel like we're gonna drive off the side and tumble down, regardless of the amount of safety there is, sharp turns and narrow roads up a mountain, just... no.

I don't like electrical sockets or plugs. I'm scared that I'm going to get electrocuted or that I'm putting the plug on the wrong way and it's going to get stuck (and then electrocute me somehow)

so if you want to be my shardbuddy ask me because I'm never going to ask you

Sure

This is why it's an irrational fear. It took like five minutes before I decided to type 'sure'

Spoiler

Yes

Wow this thread is turning into ask revelryintheart to be her shardbuddy. Time for more fears!

I'm afraid of people (or animals) dying. Sometimes my cat will lie down super still and I have to double check to see if he's breathing because I get freaked out and think he's dead. Same with real people when they're sleeping.

[Condensation she/her]

Truth, will you be my Shardbuddy? Revelry, you too.

I think we already are

YaY!

[Condensation she/her]

Well, it's an official position for me, requiring an official application. I will add you to my list in About Me.
Revelry, we already were. My bad!

Also, I now have 100 reputations. I'm so proud of me

I won’t be your shardbuddy, but I will be either your Shardpet, Shardotter, or Shardoat (otter + cat)

[Condensation she/her]

Those aren't options on my About Me. Are you sure you won't be my Shardbuddy?

At this point it seems like it’s basically become a rite of passage on the Shard to be afraid of Ene before you get to know her

I don’t want to be in the highest degree; I don’t deserve to be there and I’m not clean enough to be there. Besides that, I don’t want to be a perfect version of myself - I just wanna be me. I also don’t know whether I’ll end up with someone I want to live eternally with, much less that they’ll be male and LDS - and I don’t want to be around my heavenly family all the time because again, I am not morally good enough or spiritually clean enough for that. 

(Hopefully this doesn’t sound whiny or anything lol, it’s just how it is) 

Edit: I sure as heck don’t want to go to heck, either - one of the lower levels will suit me just fine, hopefully where I can visit my family and friends occasionally. I’d hate to lose some of you forever. 

You know I had a similar fear at one point but for a different reason.

I thought being perfect, after creating my own world and all, and the inhabitants of my world had all left would be SUPER boring.

And that terrified me.

I got over that but, yeah, I feel you.

[I Am A Fish he/him]

I have a fear of immortality.

This makes sense. Finally someone I can relate with.

I'm terrified of cats and horses.

Horses I can understand. Cat's I can understand even more

 

[Condensation she/her]

That's an extra apostrophe, @I Used To Be A Fish. I'll have you know that I have 3 cats and they are AMAZING and SWEET.

No. I can’t be a Shardbuddy, it isn’t in my nature. Just like Shallan can’t convince a stick to be fire, you can’t convince me to be a Shardbuddy. I am a Shardpet/Shardoat/Shardotter

Shardoat

[Snorkel]

Oh, here's a weird one.

I sometimes have nightmares where I look into the sky and see a planet.  Like, bigger than the moon, hanging in the sky.  I'm apparently afraid of planets.

 

To be fair, if Earth were that close to another planet, that would be quite bad. But in the dreams, I was not afraid of the physics. I was just afraid of the planets.

[Condensation she/her]

Hmm. That's probably a comparison to something else in your life. Maybe you fear the bigger people, whether that be physical, social, or mental.

[Bearer of all agonies he/him]

I’m scared of crashing. So I’m not old enough to drive and whenever we are on a highway I feel like imma die. And that’s scary because I sit in the passengers seat, but I am not heavy enough for the air-bag, so if we crash, I’m dead. But that’s crazy since my mother is an amazing driver and will never crash.
