AS SOME PERSONAL ADVICE, SINCE APPARENTLY THIS PLACE IS ABSOLUTELY *INFESTED* WITH HUMANS, I NEED TO INFORM THE MAJORITY OF YOU HOW HUMILIATINGLY SIMPLIFIED YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF ROMANCE IS.
LIKE, SERIOUSLY, IT'S EMBARRASSING, AND SEEING CONSTANT OBLIVIOUS ATTITUDES ABOUT PERFECTLY HEALTHY SOCIAL DYNAMICS MAKES ME WANT TO BE SHOT DIRECTLY INTO EVERY SUN THAT HAS EVER EXISTED AT THE SAME TIME. I SWEAR HALF OF YOU ARE GOING TO DIE ALONE AND IT WILL BE ENTIRELY YOUR OWN FAULT BECAUSE HUMANS ARE SO GODDAMN INCOMPETENT AT THEIR OWN EMOTIONAL SPECTRUM. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A COLLECTIVE SPECIES MORE HELLBENT ON SELF-DESTRUCTION BASED ON NEGLECTING THEIR OWN NATURAL FEELINGS.
I AM AWARE THAT I AM PROBABLY EXTENSIVELY INSULTING YOU NOW INSTEAD OF HELPING YOU. ALL RIGHT, I NEED TO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GET TO THE POINT BEFORE HALF OF YOU HAVE GLAZED OVER. IF YOU'RE STILL READING THIS, CONGRATULATIONS ON THE FUNCTIONING BRAIN CELLS, REALLY PROUD OF YOU FOR MAKING IT THIS FAR IN AN EXTREMELY SHORT TEXT. LET'S GET ON WITH IT.
FIRST LESSON: YOU HAVE YOUR EMOTIONS FOR A *REASON*. I DO NOT KNOW WHY YOU ALL INSIST ON BURYING EVERY SINGLE NATURAL INSTINCT YOU HAVE LIKE IT'S A HOT PIECE OF SHIT OF SHAME YOU JUST SQUATTED OUT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE.
THE GENERAL RULE OF THUMB IS: IF YOUR EMOTIONS FOCUS ON BETTERING YOURSELF, THEY ARE GOOD. IF THEY SERVE TO KEEP SOMEONE ELSE FROM BETTERING THEMSELVES, THEY ARE BAD.
IN MY CULTURE, THE IDEAL ROMANCE INVOLVES BEING THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF POSSIBLE THROUGH YOUR CONNECTIONS TO OTHERS. IN A PERFECT WORLD, YOU HELP YOUR PARTNERS AS MUCH AS THEY HELP YOU AND IT BECOMES THIS BEAUTIFUL SYMBIOTIC SITUATION WHERE EVERYONE CAN MUTUALLY BENEFIT FROM THEIR PERSONAL DYNAMICS.
WHICH LEADS ME TO THE SECOND LESSON: I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHY HUMANS HAVE THIS EXTREMELY NARROW, SPECIFIC IDEA OF ROMANCE. THERE IS A MULTITUDE OF WAYS TO BE ROMANTICALLY INVOLVED WITH PEOPLE. THERE ARE DIFFERENT WAYS TO LOVE PEOPLE, SO WHY REFUSE THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF RELATIONSHIPS YOU FOCUS ON? WHY PUT ONE RELATIONSHIP ON A PEDESTAL AND LET ALL YOUR OTHER RELATIONSHIPS SUFFER BECAUSE OF IT? THAT ISN'T HEALTHY NO MATTER WHICH QUADRANT YOUR CULTURE IS OBSESSED WITH.
THIRD LESSON: WHERE I COME FROM, WE HAVE ROMANTIC QUADRANTS. LEARN THEM AND BENEFIT FROM THEIR EXISTENCE. YOU ARE SO FUCKING WELCOME AT HOW MUCH THEY WILL DRASTICALLY IMPROVE YOUR SHITTY LIFE AND HOW MUCH SENSE THEY WILL MAKE TO YOUR VARIOUS RELATIONSHIPS:
AND THAT IS THE SHORT AND SWEET VERSION OF IT. YES, IT IS WILDLY COMPLEX AND YES HEARTBREAK IS ABSOLUTELY FUCKING FROTHING AT THE BRIM IN OUR CULTURE. QUADRANT VACILLATION IS A RAMPANT PROBLEM THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SORT OUT WHAT QUADRANT FITS YOUR RELATIONSHIP BEST. IT IS PERFECTLY NATURAL TO FEEL AND IT IS FINE IF YOU HAVE A PARTNER WHO FITS ALL QUADRANTS BUT YOU SHOULD REALLY CLARIFY THAT KIND OF THING SO YOU CAN BOTH BE ON THE SAME PAGE.
I'M NOT REALLY INTERESTED IN BEING THE TOWN AUSPISTICE, BY THE WAY. I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR INDIVIDUAL RELATIONSHIPS. BUT AS A RULE, I CARE ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS IN GENERAL AND IT IS SINCERE TORTURE TO THINK ABOUT HOW MANY IDIOTS ARE WALKING AROUND DENYING THEIR OWN FEELINGS. IT MAKES ME WANT TO SCREAM.
WHICH I HAVE ALREADY DONE SO MANY TIMES NOW.
BUT YES I WILL OPEN THE FLOOR TO GENERAL QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR PROBABLE ROMANTIC AWAKENINGS THIS POST WILL NO DOUBT AROUSE. THERE IS NO SHAME IN REALIZING YOU HAVE HAD A TOTAL HATE-BONER FOR SOMEONE FOR TEN YEARS AND ARE PROBABLY IN SOME KIND OF LOVE WITH THEM. IDIOT.
OKAY BEFORE I WRITE ANOTHER SHORT ESSAY, I AM ACTUALLY GOING TO SHUT THE FUCK UP NOW.
EDIT BY FUTURE CARCINOGENETICIST @ 3:25 AM
WOW, I AM SO FUCKING INEPT AT THIS SOMEONE REVOKED MY FUCKING ROMANCE GURU CARD THAT I DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE.
I FORGOT THE CARDINAL LESSON FOR HUMANITY BECAUSE YOU ALL HAVE THIS WILD FUCKING OBSESSION WITH GENDER: YOU ARE NOT "BROKEN" OR WHAT THE FUCK EVER KIND OF BRAINWASHING YOUR KIND HAS PUT YOU THROUGH...IF YOU LIKE THE SAME GENDER YOU IDENTIFY AS. HOLY FUCK. OR MULTIPLE GENDERS. OR NO GENDERS. ATTRACTION IS A GODDAMN SPECTRUM AND WE FEEL IT AS SUCH FOR A REASON. BECAUSE! IT'S! MOTHERFUCKING NATURAL! IF YOU DON'T FEEl ATTRACTION LITERALLY NOTHING ABOUT YOU NEEDS TO BE CHANGED. IF YOU'RE HORNED UP, IT'S FUCKING FINE AS LONG AS YOU'RE NOT A MONSTER ABOUT IT. JEGUS.
OKAY NOW I'M DONE.

THIRD LESSON: WHERE I COME FROM, WE HAVE ROMANTIC QUADRANTS. LEARN THEM AND BENEFIT FROM THEIR EXISTENCE. YOU ARE SO FUCKING WELCOME AT HOW MUCH THEY WILL DRASTICALLY IMPROVE YOUR SHITTY LIFE AND HOW MUCH SENSE THEY WILL MAKE TO YOUR VARIOUS RELATIONSHIPS:
MATESPRITSHIP: THE FLUSHED QUADRANT IS PROBABLY THE CLOSEST THING TO "TRADITIONAL" HUMAN LOVE. THIS IS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO YOU HAVE STRONG POSITIVE EMOTIONS TOWARDS THAT PROVIDES YOU WITH PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCES BOTH EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY (NOT TO GET TOO NC-17 HERE). THIS IS YOUR MATESPRIT.
MOIRALLEGIANCE: THE PALE QUADRANT IS ALSO A POSITIVE DYNAMIC, HOWEVER, THIS RELATIONSHIP TYPICALLY FOCUSES ON BEING THERE TO PROVIDE ABSOLUTE AND COMPLETE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TO YOUR PARTNER. IT INVOLVES BEING ABLE TO RECOGNIZE THEIR FLAWS, HELP THEM BE THE BEST VERSION OF THEMSELVES, AND THEM TO DO THE SAME FOR YOU. YOU CALM THEM DOWN WHEN THEY ARE WORKED UP, YOU KEEP THEM SAFE FROM THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. THIS IS YOUR MOIRAIL OR PALEMATE.
KISMESISSITUDE: THE BLACK QUADRANT IS RELIANT ON PURELY NEGATIVE EMOTIONS. THIS IS ABOUT THE HATRED AND ANIMOSITY YOU FEEL TOWARDS ANOTHER. THE KEY HERE IS THAT THIS IS EXTREMELY MUTUAL, WELL-BALANCED, HEALTHY HATRED. MEANING YOU ARE ACTUAL EQUALS IN TERMS OF STRENGTH OR INTELLECTUALITY OR SOMETHING. THE POINT IS *NOT* TO KILL OR DEFEAT YOUR KISMESIS, BUT TO CONSTANTLY CHALLENGE EACH OTHER INTO A BETTER VERSION OF YOURSELVES THROUGH RIVALRY. ALSO YOU PROBABLY WANT TO FUCK THEM. SORRY. THAT'S JUST HOW IT GOES. IT IS EXTREMELY COMMON WHERE I COME FROM FOR THE BLACK AND FLUSHED QUADRANTS TO CONTINUALLY SWITCH. THEY ARE AS EQUALLY ESSENTIAL TO YOUR WELL-BEING SINCE THEY KEEP YOU ON YOUR FUCKING TOES AND RESPECT YOU IN WAYS THE OTHER QUADRANTS MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND.
THIS RELATIONSHIP IS QUITE TUMULTUOUS. AND IT CAN BE VERY UNHEALTHY IF THINGS ARE UNBALANCED BETWEEN THE TWO WHICH IS BASICALLY WHY WE HAVE...
AUSPISTICISM: THE ASHEN QUADRANT. THIS IS LESS OF A ROMANTIC QUADRANT BUT RATHER A DEALING OF ROMANCE. THIS IS A WILLING THIRD PARTY STEPPING IN TO WILLINGLY HELP FACILITATE A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OTHERS. THIS IS CRUCIAL IN OUR SOCIETY TO ENSURE ALL OF YOUR PARTNERS AND RELATIONSHIPS ARE ACTUALLY HEALTHY AND FUNCTIONING. THE AUSPISTICE IS NOT NECESSARILY ROMANTICALLY INVOLVED IN THE OTHER PARTIES, BUT IT ISN'T UNCOMMON TO SEE AN AUSPISTICE WHO IS LONGING FOR ONE OF THE PARTIES AND IS HOPING THE ASHEN QUADRANT MIGHT GIVE THEM A LEVERAGE TO ANOTHER RELATIONSHIP.
AND THAT IS THE SHORT AND SWEET VERSION OF IT. YES, IT IS WILDLY COMPLEX AND YES HEARTBREAK IS ABSOLUTELY FUCKING FROTHING AT THE BRIM IN OUR CULTURE. QUADRANT VACILLATION IS A RAMPANT PROBLEM THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SORT OUT WHAT QUADRANT FITS YOUR RELATIONSHIP BEST. IT IS PERFECTLY NATURAL TO FEEL AND IT IS FINE IF YOU HAVE A PARTNER WHO FITS ALL QUADRANTS BUT YOU SHOULD REALLY CLARIFY THAT KIND OF THING SO YOU CAN BOTH BE ON THE SAME PAGE.

Re: text
D --> I feel as if this conversation is e%ceptionally predictable in its content
D --> I am almost inclined to craft the bust of your person to change this up
D --> But satirical sculpting is admittedly not e%actly my specialty
D --> I would ask if you had ever considered ignoring their romantic f00lishness
D --> But I am aware of your addiction to the opera of congealed fatty tissue that is human romance
D --> You cannot truly help yourself
D --> Semantics
D --> I can see the discussion about copulation with a kismesis or not copulating
D --> You realize this I am certain
D --> You are already defeating any effort not to treat this as the tragedy of epic proportions it is
D --> It is already unsalvageably embarrassing for our entire species
Re: text
IT IS NOT AN ADDICTION. ROMANCE IS THE FOUNDATION OF SOCIETY AND DRIVES MOST PEOPLE'S DEEPER MOTIVES. I CANNOT BE A SUCCESSFUL LEADER AND THEN JUST WILLFULLY IGNORE THE INTERPERSONAL ISSUES GOING ON. DO YOU KNOW HOW MESSY THAT SHIT CAN GET?
PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP OH MY GOD DON'T READ THREADS YOU AREN'T INVOLVED WITH YOU GIANT FUCKING NOOKSNIFFING SCUM.
YOU'RE EMBARRASSING OUR ENTIRE SPECIES GO FUCK YOURSELF HOLY SHIT
EDKGFJDLG
DGFDKG
(Yes, that is Karkat slapping his Omni in pure rage and humiliation that Equius saw that mild hate flirting. Look away.)
Re: text
D --> I suppose if I think of your thick think pan as a blunt instrument for bashing in walls I can suffice
D --> Yes I am aware
D --> Have you forgotten the asteroid
D --> Asgard was worse
D --> Even the seadweller dated and it was as horrifying as you can imagine
D --> I am not taking advice on who to not watch from someone who argues with themselves regularly
D --> We do not even have temporal shenanigans to justify it here Vantas
D --> And we both know that you will watch my every thread to find the means to chastise me over my ineptitude in romance
D --> There is little need for pretense
D --> Aside from the fact that I am not seeking it
D --> Getting my think pan in order is more important than such frivolities
Re: text
YES, UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND A WAY TO ERASE MY MEMORIES YET. MAYBE ONE DAY.
THAT ACTUALLY DOES SOUND KIND OF HORRIFYING, I'LL GIVE YOU THAT.
ACKNOWLEDGING YOURSELF IN PUBLIC IS TOTALLY NORMAL AND A VALID WAY TO APPROACH SELF-CRITICISM. MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY MORE OF IT SOMETIME. LOOK INTO A MIRROR AND TELL YOURSELF YOU'RE A PIECE OF SHIT. THAT'S MY REGULAR MORNING ROUTINE AND IT REALLY GETS ME GOING FOR THE NIGHT.
(It's impossible to tell if he's even joking or not.)
OKAY. THAT'S TRUE. FINE. BUT IT'S NOT MY FAULT YOUR GLARINGLY ANNOYING QUIRK IS SO EYE-CATCHING AND EASY TO FIND IN A SEA OF QUIRKLESS ASSHOLES.
I AM NOT SEEKING IT EITHER!!! AND DOES IT REALLY TAKE YOU *THAT* LONG TO GET YOUR THINK BATTERIES FUNCTIONING? WAIT, NO, I CAN BELIEVE THAT.
Re: text
D --> A daily routine is just performative e%crement
D --> I hardly consider my quirk e%ceptionally annoying though it is definitely noteworthy and easily l00ked for
D --> As an arrow seeking its target
D --> It is not a matter of charging think pan batteries
D --> It is changing perspective sufficient to have healthy relationships
D --> I am just aware enough to recognize that I have only ever had one
no subject
I WILL GIVE YOU THAT IT IS NOT THE MOST OBNOXIOUS OF QUIRKS. AT LEAST YOU'RE NOT ONE OF THE SEADWELLERS. THOSE FUCKERS GAVE ME REGULAR MIGRAINES.
GOD SHUT UP. YOU CAN'T EVEN SHOOT ARROWS.
WELL. DON'T FEEL THAT BUSTED UP ABOUT IT. OUR KIND AREN'T EXACTLY GRACEFUL IN THE ROMANCE DEPARTMENT. ROMANCE IS DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE.
no subject
D --> But fine
D --> I require strength training on finer control so that I can resume utilizing a bow
D --> I am e%tremely tired of breaking bows
D --> I require a better grasp of human culture so that it does not confuse me so often if I am to live amongst these primitive primates
D --> It would also be pleasant not to require so many towels
D --> Alchemizing them constantly because I misapprehend intentions of commentary is irksome
[It said a bit about how he'd grown (or how bored he was) that he actually indulged in self reflection there. Actually, no. It didn't. he was bored and wanted to prove Karkat wrong. That's all there was to it.]
D --> I found Tavros to be most irritating at times
D --> Believe it or not I was able for nearly a sweep to perform e%cellent archery
D --> My musculature was weakened in Asgard to that of a human ma%imum and I could safely draw bowstring without difficulty
D --> I spent most of my military career with the archery brigades
D --> It was heaven
D --> Calling water wet is more of a revelation than what you just stated
D --> But that's not e%actly new social commentary
no subject
That's a sufficient way to make Karkat shut up for once.)
FIRST OF ALL, YES YOU DO. SO LET'S CLEAR THAT UP.
I HAVE BECOME SOMEWHAT FAMILIAR WITH THE HUMANOIDS. IF YOU EVER WANT A LESSON, I'D BE HAPPY TO ACCOMMODATE IT INTO WIGGLER TALK FOR YOU. I'M SURE HALF THESE FUCKERS WOULDN'T MIND SHARING THEIR WAYS EITHER.
AS FOR THE SWEATING THING THAT'S PROBABLY JUST A CURSE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR YOU.
THAT'S NOT FAIR. TAVROS COULDN'T HELP BEING COMPLETELY WORTHLESS. VRISKA PRACTICALLY RUINED HIM FOR ANYTHING.
I AM TRYING TO BE FUCKING NICE, ASSHOLE. ACCEPT MY KINDNESS OR ROT.
no subject
D --> At this rate one of them will take it upon themselves to do it
D --> I may come to you for e%planations of their f00lishness when it inevitably confuses me
D --> Their obsessions are hard to make sense of
D --> I am aware that he was incapable of being other than he was
D --> And of the Cerulean manipulation he suffered from
D --> It did not make him less irritating to deal with even if there were e%cuses
D --> Tolerance is simply not my STRONG suit
D --> If you say something to the effect of there being many eight limbed suckerbeasts in the sea I may punch you
D --> But the attempted piteous behavior is noted
D --> ...
D --> Normally it should not require elucidation
D --> But I will elucidate because it is e%cruciatingly important that we always be clear with each other
D --> That is platonic pity
D --> That was not a question
no subject
NOT THAT I AM AGREEING WITH YOU, BUT YOU'RE NOT WRONG. HE WAS ANNOYING AS SHIT. MOST OF OUR FRIENDS WERE THOUGH. I THINK OUR CLUSTER IS JUST OBNOXIOUS.
I WASN'T GOING TO SAY THAT MY GLOB.
THANK FUCK. I REALLY DO NOT NEED TO DEAL WITH UNREQUITED ROMANCES RIGHT NOW. COMPLETELY DISINTERESTED, ACTUALLY, SO THE CLARITY IS APPRECIATED.
no subject
D --> Their cultural differences are e%cruciating
D --> One thing I missed about ours is that at least it is predictable
D --> Predictably problematic but predictable
D --> Yes g00d settled
D --> Now just wait
D --> The sea dweller will arrive and develop a crush on everyone
D --> Or the Highbl00d will begin honking again
no subject
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE SUCH HORRIBLE AND TERRIFYING JOKES.
ACTUALLY, I WOULDN'T MIND SEEING ERIDAN AGAIN. HE ALWAYS WAS FUN TO TALK TO ABOUT STUFF LIKE THIS.
no subject
D --> They carry their young inside themselves after all
D --> A disgusting notion but reality
D --> I was not attempting humor
D --> Eridan would be predictably one of our associates to appear in this place ne%t
D --> It is far t00 calm for Vriska
D --> She would be bored in seconds
D --> And then whining about having nothing to plot
D --> And dragging us into some insane and needless plan
D --> I should have a d00msday device ready just in case
D --> It would simplify things
no subject
(Consider him successfully #triggered.)
I DON'T THINK VRISKA WOULD HAVE A CHOICE IN THE MATTER. IT WOULD BE HILARIOUS TO WATCH HER DIE FROM BOREDOM. SHE CANNOT DRAG ME INTO ANYTHING. SHE KNOWS HER PLACE NOW.
(The fuck she does.)
THAT IS ACTUALLY PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA
no subject
D --> But I will almost certainly not abuse it
D --> It is rather disgusting
D --> No choice in the matter does not shut her up trust me
D --> She will try so very hard to make her games and plans still have meaning
D --> And you do not control that one regardless of what you think
D --> You could never control her
D --> She was her own worst enemy
D --> Properly secured of course
D --> We do not need repetition of last time
no subject
YEAH, WE REALLY DON'T NEED A CASUAL SOCIOPATH FINDING THAT SHIT. AND AS MUCH AS I LOATHE TO ADMIT THIS, I AT LEAST DO TRUST YOU TO NOT HAVE WIDESPREAD HOMICIDAL TENDENCIES.
no subject
D --> But my e%periences with her may be colored by the fact that she always seemed to show up from early in her timeline
D --> Do you recall the period where she behaved as if she had to prove her cunning over and over again
D --> And thought everyone was testing her villainy so she would perform over the top e%travagantly planned manipulations simply to prove she could
D --> It was like that
D --> Only every time she would forget that she ever did it the last time she arrived
D --> I felt like I was wriggler sitting
D --> Thank you
D --> I do try to keep my hatred focused properly
no subject
WE ALL HAD REALLY GODDAMN ANNOYING PHASES. IT'S HUMILIATING TO EVEN THINK ABOUT. BUT THAT WAS ESPECIALLY ANNOYING.
OH. FUCK.
I MEAN THIS SINCERELY BUT I AM SORRY YOU HAD TO GO THROUGH THAT. I WOULD HAVE RATHER STABBED MYSELF THROUGH THE VISUAL PROCESSORS THAN DEAL WITH ANY AMOUNT OF THAT BULLSHIT.
YOU ARE EFFECTIVE AT IT. THAT IS ONE OF THREE COMPLIMENTS I WILL BE GIVING YOU FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS SWEEP. OR YEAR. I THINK THIS PLACE FOLLOWS THE GENERIC HUMAN CALENDAR.
no subject
D --> Platonically as she is without question even less my type than you are
D --> She had so little awareness of how f00lish she really sounded because she naturally assumed I was punking her
D --> I actually t00k to trying to protect her from herself a little without actually letting it be a moirailship
D --> She can be reasoned with but it takes e%cruciatingly large quantities of patience
D --> We can work with years
D --> It is actually hard to keep tabs of Alternian sweeps when the local time is based around years
D --> But I do not entirely understand how that is
D --> Unless the history b00k I found is accurate
D --> And this is a very weirdly bl00d obsessed version of Earth
D --> Meaning that its solar cycle is actually a year
D --> Wait
D --> Does that mean we are actually on earth
D --> I feel vaguely disgusted by that thought
no subject
THAT IS SLIGHTLY SURPRISING. OR MAYBE NOT. I FEEL IT SHOULD BE SURPRISING BUT ISN'T.
SHE ISN'T HEALTHY WITH MOIRAILS. IT'S FOR THE BEST THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
YEAH, IT IS. I'VE COMPLETELY LOST TRACK OF TIME BECAUSE OF IT. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, THIS EARTH WAS THE RESULT OF SOME CATACLYSMIC COSMIC FAMILY DRAMA THAT LITERALLY RESHAPED THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH.
YES. THAT'S RIGHT - YOU NEVER GOT TO EARTH. IT'S OKAY. I HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED MOST OF EARTH, BUT IT IS BETTER THAN THE METEOR.
no subject
D --> It is hard not to pity a very young Vriska when you are trying to e%plain simple realities
D --> Her performative side is so out of place that it is horrendous
D --> I would never try to be her moirail however
D --> I can only think of one worse option
[He wasn't going to actually SAY Gamzee. Just think it very hard.]
D --> Someone mentioned something about a god-tier child going insane
D --> But considering our past how can I say it is any stranger than a croak beast ribbiting to create a new world
D --> True
D --> There are few things worse than that locale
no subject
I THINK SHE WAS PROBABLY MORE AKIN TO A GUARDIAN THAN A GODTIER.
no subject
D --> They were yours after all and we all have our personal biases
D --> I could never have the patience
D --> That may be a more accurate terminology for these Pthumerians and the gods of Asgard yes
D --> Difficult to be certain
