"I... I wiƧh I could fully underƧtand her Ƨituation, but I can't. Ƨhe waƧ in the church for Ƨo long.... If only Odyiva and I had been faƧter.. No, I can't think like that. There iƧ no changing the paƧt.. only Ƨhaping the future. And, hopefully, I've helped give herƧ back. Not that I'll ever Ƨay thiƧ to her face, however. I lack the courage."
I wish I knew what she was thinking. Something about her is so.. distant. she doesn't act any particular way towards me, but the others.. I do wonder what is going on in her thinkpan. I realize she mite feel bad for something she was doomed to have.. but its not her fault her ancestor made poor decisions. I hope, she is able to find a non destructive way to deal with her inner turmoil. for herself, not anyone elase.
"He.. Well, quite honeƧtly, he ƧeemƧ like a bit of a fool. HiƧ unwavering optimiƧm iƧ Ƨo draining to be around that it almoƧt feelƧ like my entire fucking brain haƧ been turned into duƧt and vacuumed. One day the world iƧ going to hit him hard, and it'Ƨ going to hurt. I can only hope he haƧ a better Ƨupport ƧyƧtem when the time comeƧ, at leaƧt."
"Hm... I think we are far to Ƨimilar to get along properly. I can admire that he haƧ Ƨome brainƧ in that head of hiƧ, but talking to him iƧ like a chore. PerhapƧ if we had literally any of the Ƨame intereƧtƧ we could get along, but aƧ of thiƧ moment... aƧ Odyiva would Ƨay.. 'YikeƧ'."
"How I ever came to meet thiƧ magnificent troll iƧ beyond me. Ƨhe'Ƨ done Ƨo much for me in Ƨuch a Ƨhort Ƨpan of time, I don't underƧtand how Ƨhe doeƧ it. I try my beƧt to be there for her in return, but... I'm afraid I'm not enough aƧ I am, if anything. It certainly feelƧ that I am the Ƨource of all of her problemƧ at timeƧ and... I feel horrible for it.. But I juƧt- I don't underƧtand how to.. be normal, I ƧuppoƧe."
"I- What iƧ there to Ƨay about her? Ƨhe'Ƨ fucking perpoƧterouƧ! A meƧƧ! Ƨhe'Ƨ juƧt- .... oh who am I kidding. I have.. an ever growing Ƨoft Ƨpot for her. Ƨhe preƧentƧ herƧelf in a certain way towardƧ the otherƧ to Ƨurround herƧelf in thiƧ... air of danger and myƧtery.. But I've gotten to Ƨee the real Lidala... And Ƨhe'Ƨ a completely different woman."
"I... honeƧtly I quite enjoy them. I never thought I would but.. it feelƧ nice. To be underƧtood by Ƨomeone. I think we're good influenceƧ on each other, them helping me underƧtand the intricacieƧ of my feral blood and I helping them.. feel a little more welcome in thiƧ Ƨhit Ƨhow. I do hope I can get to know them more in the future."
"SHE'LL ADAMANTLY DENY 1T BUT 1 KNOW SHE LOVES ME. HM, NO, 'LOVE' I2N'T THE RIGHT WORD, IT'2 MORE LIKE 'TOLERATE2 WITH A 2EN2E OF BEGRUDGING AFFECTION'. BUT THAT'S GOOD 3NOUGH FOR M3 AND SH3'S A GOOD FRI3ND, 3V3N THOUGH SH3'LL V3H3M3NTLY SAY TH3 OPPOSIT3 NO MATT3R WHAT. SHE'LL BE 4LL LIKE; 'HE'S 4 MESS 4ND UNDERGOES D4NDEROUS PR4CTICES OR WH4TEVER'. IT'5 ALMO5T FUNNY BUT IN ALL HONE5TY 5HE'5 JU5T GREAT. VERY SMART AND HONEST AND THAT'S PRETTY ADMIRABLE."
"| he is loud and abrasive |

| hes alright |"
Xarkia is, ☣ffsetting. N☣ne ☣f the scientists here are, Well, * N☣rmal. * But Xar is, nice. When she cares t☣ be. I d☣n't interact with any of them ☣ften. The fact she uses dead grubs is.. Unethical, But I can't say much ☣n that, In my ☣wn field.
"| theyre quiet |
| which is good |
| they dont get on my nerves as much as the other two so i can stand to keep them around |

"tbh i'mm mmore scared of stayix than i amm of xer (don't tell her i said that i'd never hear the end of it ommg sjfakdsnafs). xerrax is straight up about how strong she is n' what she'll do but stayix is quiet and you never know what shes thinkin and it MMESSES w/ you mman. shes terrifying. good friend tho. really diggin her vibe. she's got some good advice too if i'mm bein honest, and i amm. all in all, i def don't regret being friends with her. she's pretty great. still scary tho."

"lmmao what do you want mme to say about her? shes pretty neat and pretty strong, almmost scary strong but in kinda a good way? oh, but don't get on her bad side (altho tbh its kinda hard to tell when youre on her good side nasjkdnlfsa) or else ur fucked, famm. absolutely dead mmeat, don't even think about pissing her off. she teases and mmakes fun of mme all the timme but it s'cool, we have a whole kinda friendship thing goin on so s'all good."
"I apprEciatE hEr spunk! Go off baby, fuck thE systEm! HEll yEah! But othEr than that? Dunno. I hardly sEE thE bitch, LOL. WEv'E spokEn a fEw timEs, mostly in thE past whEn thEy still attEndEd mEEtings, but oncE thst stoppEd???? I think I'vE sEEn thEm thricE sincE thEn. AbsolutEly bonkErs, imo."
Jangmis fine. id trust her with pith, that's saying something LOL. like yeah shes, really goddamn horny, but like, eh who cares live your life while you can yk. i dont rlly talk to her much tho tbh.
"ShE's so small, itty bitty wrigglEr~ OthEr than that, though, I don't havE much of an opinion about 'Er. Simply anothEr mutant just tryin' to makE it in this fuckEd up world, and honEstly? ThrivE, quEEn. I'm surE if I was askEd about hEr swEEps ago, bEforE I had mEt Saskia, my opinion would'vE fallEn in linE with a lot of thE othEr pinks. But... thEy'rE young, both thE othEr hEirs and Pith, so... I think thEy still havE thE ability to changE thE way thEy think. It's hard, yEah, I'm still lEarning mysElf, but it fEEls prEtty worth it, haha."
Shes. So ungodly horny. What the hell. Ive seen her flirt with zalwel one to many times. Dear god. Jesus. God damn. Wow.
"hes... yeah... im g7ad he has a moirai7... it certain7y seems that he needs one.. Not in a rude way!! but.... yeah..... i dont rea77y have much e7se to say,, he just.. i just think our situations.. a a7most the exact opposite... if that makes any sense,, probab7y not.. sorry,,,"
"i fee7 7ike... maybe hes trying to.. hide something..? i dont know if that makes sense... but.. i dont know.. every word out of his mouth.. seems to have some 7eve7 of p7anning..? maybe im just thinking to far into it though,,,"
(cue blatant attempts to wingman for kosmei and zealil. bonus points if kos and zea are together and he's STILL trying)
"shes... we77, i 7ike her.. she has a 7eve7 head, from what ive, uhm,, seen.... i trust her judgement more than,, we77.. most everyone e7se, to be honest.... she doesnt seem to judge me,, based on,, we77.. the obvious factors.. 7ike everyone e7se does.. so im very thankfu7 for that... hopefu77y it stays that way??"
I haven't gotten many chances to speak to eeyoRishMagnanimoUs- they seem to have qUite a shy peRsonaLity, anD an anonymoUs onLine pResence. OBvioUsLy I can't know what LeaD EM to theiR Decision to stay so hiDDen, so I'LL tRy not to specULate too mUch. TheiR BoUnDaRies mUst Be RespecteD, iF that's anything I've LeaRneD! HopeFULLy peopLe have 'gotten the memo' aBoUt that... OtheRwise I'LL have to make one. This is impoRtant to me.
I pReDict we'LL have to coopeRate a Lot moRe in the FUtURe- anD I aDmit that some paRt oF me is veRy, hoRRiBLy, teRRiBLy cURioUs- BUt tRUst Doesn't have to Be BUiLt excLUsiveLy on the meRe knowLeDge oF ones peRsonaL inFoRmation (aLthoUgh that can Be UseD as vaLiDation). TRUst is BUiLt on expeRience, anD expeRience is BUiLt on time.
FRom my UnDeRstanDing, EM is a veRy empathetic peRson, BoRDeRing on neURoticism. They've pRoven to have qUite a ReLiaBLe gUt instinct, ZeaLiL seems qUite FonD oF them anD... I think they make aR't? OR poetRy? I'LL have to DoUBLe check.
What I'm tRying to say is: eveRyone's a vaLUaBLe asset Right now, incLUDing EM."
"lidala. lidala. lidala. she needs to take. a chill pill. ha! dont tell her i said that. please. shes too. stressed? she stresses me out. just by talking to her. too much. shes far too scary. for my liking. and i think thats. intentional? like she wants. to keeps others out. and away from her. it almost makes me. sad for her. but she would hate. to hear that. she might even get. angry. and i would not. like to see her angry."
"she's uh, an interesting character! some people saY she's scarY, or mean, and Yeah, i can see What theY're saYing, but i think theY should giVe her a chance! i think it's just the WaY that she talks. she reallY isn't all that bad once You get used to it, and Wal trusts her, so that is merit enough for me to trust her too. maYbe i can shoW her the outcropping of opal in a mountainous part of the Woods i found? i think i overheard her mentioning something about rocks..."
"you know for all she seems to intimidate everyone else. she doesnt really scare me! i know i should probably be far more scared of her than i actually am. and she could. and would. probably gut me without another thought if it was for the best of the team. and i dont know if i can really hold my own against her. but i think shes not all that bad. her outer persona is certainly something to deal with. but ive been into the city before. and dealt with people who were far worse. so i think the fact that she didnt start talking to me with a knife in my face. is probably a sign that well turn out okay! JJust gotta take some time with her."
"THE source of much of my agony, and many of my patients'. HOW does she manage to cause so much damage within the group? I don't know, but it would certainly nice if she toned the aggression down more than a few notches. SHE really is starting to be far more of a thorn in my side than many of the others. ALTHOUGH I will admit that when you can convince her to do damage for you instead of against you, she is fantastic."
"Hm... Some of the biGGer kids teLL me to stay away from her, and even GiaNNa says she doesn't trust her, but... I want to be just like her!! She is sOOOO cOOl! She has cOOl eyes and cOOl clothes and says things I don't reaLLy get, but it's... it's just so cOOOOL! Where did she learn it from? I nEEd to know!!!"
"i actuallY think he's rather fascinating. not for anY reason in particular, but conVersations With him alWaYs get me thinking in one WaY or another. finallY, someone Who Will listen to me drone on about books! the Wonderful chock-full pieces of knoWledge left forgotten at our fingertips! Yes, Vio indulges me and i am grateful for it. and the WaY he interacts With quadrants! i'd loVe to base a character on him sometime, giVen the right plot..."
"vio is. ah. certainly a character. as far as ive heard. im not quite sure if that is a bad thing. but i am always willing to give someone the benefit of the doubt. i mean. i hardly think hes malicious or anything of the sort. JJust maybe not as sociable as some of the other trolls in our group? im not sure what to make of him! or his. um. pailmate? they. certainly. have a relationship going on. i am not sure i could keep up with it if i were in that situation myself! best of luck? to him."
"IF he wasn't such an egotistical teal, then I would have far more respect for him. AS he is now, however, I merely have to acknowledge that he's intelligent and capable and that seems to tide him over well enough. HIS relationship with his... SIGNIFICANT other confuses me to no end, but as long as they're not causing problems for other people, I suppose it's not really my place to comment. THEY can have their thing going and I don't need to care. I have my own life to worry about."
