Want me to levitate you so we can pull you along like a balloon or do you wanna do something more dignified.

Re: after

[endsjustified]

Re: after

[hardpity]

[endsjustified]

[ruffles his fluffy fire hair a little bit, after careful consideration]

Re: after

[hardpity]

Well, the Island of Woe is totally underwater and entry and exit is strictly controlled. There's no natural light so plants and animals don't love it. At that age I'd never been to the surface.

Is there a reason for such intense isolation? Your school is not nearly in such an extreme environment, if I recall.

Re: after

[hardpity]

Yeah, but we don't really have to go too deep into it right now.

Re: after

[endsjustified]

No...

[there are times he would insist on it but 'they just got out of the mist and everyone is rekt' is not one of them]

Re: after

[hardpity]

Yeah, that's priority one.

[ off we go ]
