he just makes me sad to think about_ after he died, no one really complained about me staying inside and doing nothing in public anymore_ but it felt like such a dirty Win_ a victory isn't really a victory if someone else's blood Was unjustly spilled to gain it_
! th!nk Leucas served as a f!ne example for the rest of us. One day you could be here, and the next you're d!sappeared l!ke you never ex!sted !n the f!rst place. He d!dn't even do anyth!ng 'wrong' other than ex!st!ng, ! don't th!nk. But that's l!fe, ! suppose. !'m not even sure that the l!ttlest ones even knew that he was around for a decent wh!le. !n my op!n!on, we should talk about h!m more. Make !t known that we are st!ll mortal, desp!te how we l!ke to delude ourselves otherw!se.
I Suppose I Should Take His Death As A Cautionary Tale, But Really I Think He Deserved It. Not For Being A Mutant Or Anything, Just That That's The Way It Goes If You're A Pink. In My Opinion, We All Deserve To Die Horrible Deaths. Horrible Deaths For Horrible People, After All. Once We're All Nice And Off Planet, I Have No Doubt That We'll All Slaughter Each Other. I Didn't Actually Know Leucas Very Much At All, So I Can't Comment On His Character. Probably Was A Piece Of Shit Like The Rest Of Us.
i think we all have~ a lot of feelings about leucas~ especially us older pinks~. we grew up with him~, he was a friend~, he was family~. but after it happened~, no one really talked about it~. no one wanted to open~ the can of eartheaters~ that would be allowing talks of murder~ and death~ in pinkblooded spaces~. we all knew quietly~ it could get real ugly real quick~. so we stayed silent~ and this uneasy peace came to be~. but we never actually~ got the chance to grieve~ or to say goodbye~.
i dont actually know all that much about hIM. i think he died long aGO, when i was still really youNG. but he kinda is like a horror stORY, rigHT? like, you could just get killed at any momENT, just because you're piNK. it doesn't seem very fair what happened to hIM... he didn't even do anytHING! juST... was livING, and then he waSN'T. it really rubs me the wrong way that my castemates would do thAT...
✦ I mean like ✦ where do you even want me to start w this guy ✦ he was a fucking joke kinda ✦ and like ✦ rlly amateurish at what he thought he was doing ✦ i can see through him ✦ clear as fucking crystal ✦ i know youre out there you little shit ✦ you cant run forever ✦ and i dont care to look hard enough ✦ rest assured if he ever becomes a problem ✦ then ill take care of him ✦ but i think he knows that if he ever gets to that point ✦ that i will be the LEAST ✦✦✦ of his worries ✦ best of luck to you ✦ honey ✦ because youre gonna need it ✦
I Think abouT half of The reason ThaT we sTill have so many pinks alive Today is because Vaalri is around. No, I'm being serious. Though she mighT seem on The surface like The casual high-funcTioning alcoholic you see all Too commonly in violeT circles, Vaal does her job damn well. Keeps The small pinks in line and makes sure ThaT The older ones don'T geT Too many horrendous ideas, and iT works exTraordinarily. WiThouT her, I'm sure There would be a greaT number more pink bloodsTains we'd have To clean up off The meeTing room floor.
"I trust her with my life, I will say that much. That d♡esn't mean I think she's faultless, th♡ugh. She's dealing with a never bef♡re seen situati♡n, facing public scrutiny f♡r every step she takes, and dealing with pressure fr♡m every pink in existence. I kn♡w I w♡uldn't be able t♡ d♡ that. I just... I just wish she learned nuance a bit earlier ♡n. It w♡uld've saved us s♡ much tr♡uble."

"He... he is in desperate need ♡f a break. I think we all are. Well, the f♡ur ♡f us at least. We are running ♡ut ♡f time and we all kn♡w it. We've d♡ne s♡ much already, dealt with things the y♡unger pinks will never experience, and we have t♡ live with the kn♡wledge that, ♡nce we are g♡ne, all ♡f ♡ur hard w♡rk will be f♡rg♡tten in fav♡ur ♡f bl♡♡dshed."
vaal Was probably the only of the older pinks to actually treat me With any amount of kindness_ she seemed to understand that i needed space from other people, and let me have my alone time When everyone else Wanted me to get out into the World and 'socialize'_ im grateful that she let me do my oWn thing, because it gave me the confidence to start telling them 'no', at least in my oWn Way_ a nonresponse is the same as a 'no', right?
"She's very... s♡ft. I d♡n't kn♡w what else t♡ say. I think she's capable ♡f d♡ing s♡ much m♡re than what she d♡es n♡w, but she w♡uld need t♡ apply herself m♡re and learn new skills, and I think that is where the issue lies. I wish her luck th♡ugh. We all kn♡w she's g♡ing t♡ need it."
✦ Girl put down the fucking booze for once really ✦ i swear she has it in her hand ✦ all the damn time ✦ its a problem ✦✦ but like ✦ i also know shes never gonna change ✦ and can i really say its a problem if its the status quo w her ✦ yes ✦ absolutely ✦ that was a rhetorical question ✦ if the answer was no then id be an idiot ✦ duh ✦ homegirl needs to learn how to not be an idiot ✦ although i havent caught her chronically hungover yet ✦ so maybe shes just on a lifetime long rager ✦ whatever girl ✦ its your liver i guess ✦ have fun w your addiction lol ✦ i'm such a hypocrite for saying that omg ✦ to each their own evils ✦ i suppose ✦ LMAO ✦ maybe i should talk to her about it ✦ mmm ✦ nah ✦ too much trouble ✦ it upsets the farce ✦ vaal is fine tho ✦ not terrible ✦ doesnt get in the way ✦
"She's fun t♡ watch, n♡t s♡ much t♡ be inv♡lved with. I wish things were different between us, as I d♡ with m♡st pinks, but... I just d♡n't think Nai♡mi and I have very c♡mpatable pers♡nalities."
Sure. She's f!ne. She ex!sts. Makes a constant fool of herself !n pr!vate, but !s at least somewhat presentable !n publ!c. !'m not a fan of the constant !ndulgence, but we all have our v!ces, ! suppose... M!ne are just a l!ttle less publ!c. Whatever helps you cope w!th the stress, because stars knows there's a lot of !t. So ! suppose ! understand, even !f ! don't necessar!ly approve. She's not a threat, so ! see no reason to compl!ment or d!sparage her e!ther way.
"I always knew she'd be the pr♡blem behind the scenes. Even when she was y♡unger, she used her intelligence t♡ manipulate situati♡ns in her fav♡ur. I warned Tri at the time... T♡ld her that I wasn't sure if Yvi w♡uld gr♡w ♡ut ♡f thid behavi♡r... Sadly, that was ♡ne of the first times Triana's faith in me wavered... N♡w all ♡f Alternia is at risk and we are running ♡ut ♡f time."
She Doesn't Exactly Scare Me, But I Do Know To Exercise Caution Around Her. She's Not Quite Dangerous, But She Is Wise, If Not Smart, And She Has Influence Beyond What I Am Allowed. I Am Very Well Aware That If I Make A Few Too Many False Moves Around Her, Then I Will Suffer Consequences. Contrary To Popular Belief, I'm Not Stupid. I Get Angry, But I Also Watch And Know When It Is Time For Me To Shut The Fuck Up. She Knows This Also. She hasn't Earned My Respect, But She Has Earned My Caution.
"She used t♡ be quite a bit nicer t♡ me, I think, but ♡ver time she's ♡nly gr♡wn m♡re and m♡re abrasive... I can't say it was a surprising shift, h♡wever. It's part ♡f my duty, th♡ugh; I keep an eye ♡n them as they gr♡w and keep them alive fr♡m behind the scenes. After they mature, what they d♡ is n♡ l♡nger supp♡sed t♡ me an issue ♡f mine... I w♡nt lie, th♡ugh.. it stings a little."
vaal is just a joy~ in every aspect of the word~, hehe~! i love working with her~ and i think we get along really well~, but we are always so busy~ and never seem to have time~ to just sit and chat~, you know~? i suppose~ such is life~, but never say never~! maybe one night~ we'll be able to crack open~ one of the many bottles~ i've gifted her for her wriggling day~.
"♡mg! I think it w♡uld be safe t♡ say that, if we b♡th weren't pinks in the public eye with "c♡mpeting platf♡rms" we w♡uld be great friends. We d♡ many c♡llabs, but I wish we c♡uld talk f♡r reas♡ns ♡utside ♡f w♡rk. It be nice t♡ have friends cl♡ser t♡ my age."
:) i honestly can't give vaal enough thanks for all that she's done for mE. if it weren't for hER, i think i would have been eaten up by the other pinks almost immedIATELY. they are so scARY! except for vaAL, obviOUSLY. she really helped me get on my feet as a kID, taught me how to navigate poliTICS, and even though i'm not really good at iT, or actually all that interESTED, the skills are really useful and have helped me out in quite a few pinCHES. turns out if you just SOUND like you know what you're talking abOUT, you can get a lot of people off your baCK, haHA!
"♡h, she's such a d♡ll. A little shy, n♡t that I can really blame her, but just the sweetest thing ♡nce y♡u get t♡ kn♡w her.... I fear what will happen t♡ her ♡nce I'm ♡ut ♡f the picture, th♡ugh... She's deserving ♡f the w♡rld, but I'm afraid the w♡rld might n♡t be resdy f♡r her."
:D alaric is my best friEND! she's the best pink out of all of thEM, and she's really coOL! we're really cloSE, and she's fun to play with and hang out with and just be wiTH, you knOW? she's really neAT! everything she does is just so much fun and she always knows how to make me smILE, no matter what kind of day i'm havING. she's great to have aroUND, i'm glad we're hivemates and that our lusii don't get too close to each otHER...
My bestie! The Sailor and the Compass! I need to finish the final touches on our plan to climb aboard the Ship and Sail away before I tell her about it but... I know she will understand. She always does! And once that's been settled, we can live freely, with no fear for our lives! :D
I don'T have any problems wiTh Alaric, far from iT, buT someTimes being around her is like eaTing candy wiTh a TooThache. NoT good in prolonged Timeframes. I'm sure iT's because she's barely done being a wriggler- or at leasT ThaT's what iT feels like- buT every Time I see her I can'T believe how carefree she is. Maybe iT's because I was never afforded ThaT opporTuniTy ThaT I feel so melancholic abouT iT, buT sTill... I hope she doesn'T lose ThaT spark of hers anyTime soon.
This Lion.... really shouldn't be the leader of the pack, but... If she wasn't in her position of power, I don't think I would have the freedom to set sail one day. I don't think she really knows what she's doing, as much as she tries to seem like it. The Ocean and Riptides working with her rather than against her are the only reasons she's still afloat. Of this, I am certain.
These Waters are deep and murky. The Lions are old, they don't have very long left on the planet unless they start changing the rules, but.... He seems alright, on the outside. Of course, you can't see a riptide from shore. The Crew doesn't need him to explicitly agree with our charted course, but... if he works with us, even if unwillingly, then our ship would suffer far less damage.
✦ Ok ill admit it ✦ shes fun ✦ shes a kid ✦ idk how she hasnt grown up yet ✦ but its nice to have a lil rascal running around the palace sometimes ✦ its probably gonna be really depressing ✦ but also really funny ✦ when she grows up and learns that the world is shitty ✦ and becomes all depressed and edgy ✦ LMAO ✦ personally i cant wait ✦ i like seeing how things turn out ✦ but maybe ill be wrong ✦ maybe shell be boring and like ✦ positive all the time ✦ lmao gross ✦ can you imaging trying to make alternia a 'better' place ✦ i sure as hell hope thats not what she has in mind ✦ because i for one will throw a fit ✦ let there be chaos! ✦ actually she might be the perfect one to perpetuate that chaos ✦ LMAO crazy how that works out ✦ but i dont think shed be good as a pawn of any sort ✦ so like ✦ go off girl ✦ maybe ill bother you one day ✦
This Star loves to put on a show! Like me, it sees everything from it's place up in the sky. If my plan had one flaw, it would be that nothing can truly be kept a secret from the stars. Maybe if our Ship takes us far enough away, this Star will forget about us?
i Wish i had someone like her groWing up like hoW saWyer has her_ instead i got thyssa, Which isn't anything against her_ please don't take it that Way_ but We are just so different compared to alaric and saWyer_ in personalities, relationship-Wise_ it's crazy to think that they Work so Well together When We've seen so many examples of that simply not happening_ but they seem happy together so i have no complaints about it_ i just hope that they aren't sWalloWed up by the system once the older pinks are gone_
This Dream is a sad one... No real friends ever make themselves known in this Dream... The Crew needs to consider if we allow ourselves to Dream... Until then, I can do nothing about this one.
oh~, i feel so bad~ because i keep mixing up~ all the little ones names~! can you blame me~? theyre all adorable~ tiny~ squishable~ blurs of pink~! (but i really should learn them~.) i remember when i was that small~, what a time it was~! i probably had my most fun then~, so i hope they are too~! it's nice to see~ the kids just being kids~, which is something~ we had a lot less of~. make sure to relish it while you can~!
The Songbird has trouble telling us apart, but that's ok! She's very nice and her voice fills the void silence leaves behind. I think it's a shame that things will turn out the way they will, but.... The Crew doesn't trust this birdy enough to let her aboard the ship, lest she really be a Siren. QwQ
! often see her around w!th Sawyer; ? th?nk they l?ve together or someth?ng? ! don't care enough. Those two could make a decently strong all!ance !n a b!d for the throne, !f they were smart enough to beg!n collud!ng together that young. Unfortunately, !t seems as though the newer generat!on of p!nks !s a l!ttle too soft around the edges, and so ! don't see them really go!ng anywhere after the next Ascens!on. Rest !n P!eces !n advance, l!ttle one.
This Viper's venom is incredibly deadly. She has planned our deaths in advance for the day the Lions leave, but I too have made plans. I haven't told the Sailor yet, but once I have a little more sway we can put the plan into motion and live a happy life together. The Viper might be venomous, but prolonged exposure dulls the effects! >w<
Surprisingly, There Is Potential In Her. Despite Her General Lack Of Attention To Anything Important, Her Excitability And Unpredictability May Actually Serve Her Well In Combat. But Seeing As How She's Not A Prodigy, That's About Most Of What She Has Going For Her Right Now. She Can Stay Alive. I Have No Qualms Against Her. She Can Remain Ignorant And Naice For As Long As She Needs To. It's Better For Both Of Us If She Does Not Attract My Attention.
These Thornes are sharp, but they lack direction. Anything that gets too close will only meet pain. I think she underestimates me, they all do really, but I am perceptive!! They don't see me as a threat, and hopefully things stay that way, so they don't try very hard to hide things from me. I guess they've overlooked how I have thorns too, I just know how to hide them under the roses :3
Jangmi is someone I would prefer To keep aT an arm's lengTh. I am noT inTeresTed in parTicipaTing in her... acTiviTies, buT I can respecT The auThoriTy ThaT she commands, hence why I see no reason To sTop her. ThaT being said, ThaT's exacTly why I can'T geT Too close. She *is* a ThreaT noT To be Taken lighTly, and she has a loT of supporT behind her. She's noT an enemy, To be sure, buT I sTill do have to be wary.

Amaz!ngly, ! bel!eve that Jangm!
