Hi, it's me again, and I know that asking everyone questions at once can kind of be a bad idea sometimes or most of the times, but...

I went to the store to prepare for this whole feast thing, and I was offered something free for... For pride? It made rainbows follow me, and I don't see what that has to do with being proud, so there's definitely something here that I'm missing. When I asked the shopkeep they went on about flags and representation, but I didn't really get it.

So... Is there anyone who wants to explain that to me, and am I the only one confused by this?

( ... welp. )

you ever think your world seems boring in comparison to these places?

( not that it's necessarily a bad thing to be boring in this context, but damn. things got messed up in some places. )

Every. Fucking. Day.

My world just had the normal bullshit. Hateful assholes. Rich people that can do whatever they want, no matter who gets hurt. And adults who don't care. I wasn't really prepared for killer robot space virgins.

sure the space virgin still knows some hateful assholes.

( they're a constant, right? )

[notwearingthekeds]

Probably. Eternal space war has to have hateful assholes.

At least other people seem to have a few good people in their lives. That's a nice comfort I guess.

[morns]

true enough.

( she misses them, though. taking care of missions here hasn't exactly been hard, but it would be nice to have Ainsworth to talk shit with while doing it. )
