Sometimes, instead of trying to explain oneself, the individual remains silent.
Silence or the lack of a narrative also is bound to narrative at the moment that one is addressed.
Our absence of words could signify an inability for the subject to find the adequate means to tell its story or it could signify a refusal to answer or to question the legitimacy of the 'you‛ at the scene of address asking that my 'I' gives an account of theh 'self'. So our narrative capacity or skill is necessary for accounability when the 'other' requests it.
