I'm not feeling too great right now. One of my friends is missing, another is depressed because his hair has started to fall out in clumps, and another friend tried to mess with my face- She messed with my make up and expected me not to notice the change to something incredibly personal to me.
I think I need a hug.

No, she just says that he has a TEMPER and he wouldnt hit her if she didn't make him so MAD. laksjdghg ARGH. It's probably be better if she DID hit him back. I mean, don't get me wrong--I love her, but the girl is seriously a bluh bluh huge bitch. But she's my sister, and that shits just not ok. sO I wOuld bE sUrprised tHat yOu wOuldn't kNow aBout tHem - yOu sEem lIke tHe tYpe tO aTtract a lOt oF wAnna-'rAils, Wanna-'rails? Um... I'm not exactly sure what that even means? I thought you could only have one of each of your troll romance things? Sorry, am still trying to get your cultural things straight in my head. ...oNe oTher tHing: cOunt tHe pIeces, cOunt tHe cHairs. SUrpluses iNvite bOnus-rOund hAzards, nOn-oPtional. MUch wIsdom oN tHis iS aLready aCcumulated - aVail yOurself oF oThers' wIt, kNight. REcall yOur rOle, rEcall yOur DUTY. I don't know what any of this means. It sounds really profound, like probably good advice! But, yeah. >.> Maybe that we need all of our players, and it's my duty to fight to protect them even if they're awful? It's sort of comforting, thinking that I have a duty to the others. But I could be totally off-base.As for your session. Uh. WOW. It sounds like you've got it really tough! And all those doomed-and-dying memories can't be helping. Your PK is super lucky to have someone to stop her, though! That'd be so awful, to hurt someone and then have to live with that, with everyone hating you and being afraid of you. Where I come from, that'd be the cue for a cuddle pile, but I don't know what to advise yfor a troll. I hope it works out though! I'm sure you'll manage--people WANT to be calmed down, they want to be happy and safe, even if they're hurting too much to know it just yet. It'll definitely be ok!And as for your question, I'd probably put it as "I care about you and don't want to see you killed. That's why I'm doing what I'm about to do here." For what it's worth. I've never really gotten clear on whether it's ok to offer trolls internet hugs in sympathy like I would others, but. Uh. The sentiment is there? Don't worry, yeah? And if you want to talk, feel free to drop me a PM, anytime.

(new post cause holy wow the last one got long) Ml- that sounds like a whole lot of lame! M aybe your friends are just acting out because they're stressed too? Still, messing with people's bodies and presentation without their consent is super not okay. Did you talk with your friend about it? Sometimes people don't get it right away, if not. She probably didn't mean to upset you much. I'm sorry. As for your other friend, what's causing the hair thing? If you have any healers in your party, they might be able to help at least a little? I'm not super up on all that sort of stuff--not really my area, tbh-- but still seems likely. *hugs* *lots and lots of hugs*

[Rrangoon warrning.]
AA, I am not familiarr withh hhuman rromance but thhe cirrcumstance of yourr sisterr does not set well withh me. It is not unusual forr a matesprritshhip to hhave fighhting, but it is generrally initiated by bothh parrties. Whhat you descrribe sounds morre like thhe corrrrection of an inferrior by a superrior thhan any kind of matesprritshhip, and I hhave gathherred yourr kind does not forrm rrankings among yourrselves. Thhis bothherrs me, if thhat is thhe corrrrect worrd.
If I werre you, I would have a talk withh thhis boyfrriend hhuman. Tell hhim thhat forr everry strrike on yourr kin not inflicted in thhe courrse of a perrfectly norrmal bickerr, you will inflict thhrree on hhim.

SF-- It should bother you. It's super super not okay. And I can't say I've never been tempted to tell him that, honestly. But it really would only make the whole situation worse. If I'm GOING to resort to violence, it would need to be enough that he wouldn't be ABLE to retaliate, and my sister's impulse to defend him wouldnt matter. And, you know, since fighting to protect people is what I'm SUPPOSED to be doing, well... I'm just saying, there are worse reasons to turn to violence.
I don't know. I think I may ask him to play in a UU with me, next we switch things up. Maybe if I get to know him better, I'll be able to understand better where he's coming from and what he needs to learn better ways of handling things.

Agreed. that's why I made the pillow and ice cream pile. Everyone likes pillows and ice cream!

I was directed here for hugs. I just... I can't explain it again, just read here.Advice would also be good, I guess? On either thread; I'm not picky.

*Hugs* Welcome to the hug pile, I have 3 of every type of ice cream. I would offer you advice but since I'm currently a Mage I have been banned from giving advice. The best I can offer is to go for the strawberry ice cream. Tastes awesome.

I wOuld sAy tHat wHat yOu dEscribe oF yOur sIster sOunds lIke yOu aRe qUite pAle fOr hEr. [/color][/quote] I, uh. What? What? No. Uh. Ok. No. Um. Right. Thank you for your explanation. I, um. Thing is, I'd like it to be super clear, that's not at all whats happening here. There's, um. A pretty strong taboo where I come from against having romantic (even non-sexually romantic) relationships with people we are related to; our brains even change chemically in response to people we live with before a young age. So, uh. Yeah. Yes. Uh, no. That aside, uh. Lol, realizing you are a mage suddenly makes your advice make a lot more sense! My bad for not paying enough attention. I'll give your riddles some thought, maybe talk them over with my our prince, if you don't mind.About your PK, I'm sure just the two of you in your cuddle-mini-pile would still be okay. It doesnt sound like trolls are much for group-hugs anyway, so. It's just. I'm sure she doesn't really WANT to hurt people, even if she kind of thinks she does right now. So, thats why it'll work out, for sure. And lol at the time and space thing. Burn! I'll have you know we have every hope that we'll have some too someday. Maybe our session is just a late bloomer! /facepalm /EDIT: Also, I'm not sure what conclusion you came to about how to handle your PK, but I'd love to hear about it, if and when you get it settled. Sounds like a wicked plan.

To: apianAnchorite Do you need a hug? I can initiate some small talk if you would like. That is before I start to talk in riddles for everything I say.
