Subject: An Observation???

okay so i've been here a while now and i've noticed something

i don't know the exact process of how the gods or people or whatever here pick people to help out

i don't know if it's completely random or an intricate process to determine who helps out but lately i've been leaning towards the latter for two reasons

one, i haven't met a single jerk or bully or even rude person here which is legit amazing and awesome BUT

SECOND

IS IT JUST MY IMAGINATION OR IS EVERYONE HERE LIKE INSANELY RIDICIOUSLY GOOD LOOKING

REALLY THO

ALL THE ADULTS COULD BE SUPER-MODELS AND ALL THE KIDS COULD BE LIKE THOSE ON HIGH SCHOOL DRAMAS ON TV

i mean this is doing wonders for my own self-confidence regarding my looks but FOR REAL I CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE TO NOTICE THIS

PLEASE TELL ME SOMEONE ELSE HAS NOTICED THIS

[ she's still trying to process how to survive without grades... if he was there, he might see steam coming out of her ears! how does she prove to mom she's doing better than the average person??? ]

so no matter how small or useless it is, it's still good?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

well the shame part is MY reaction

cause my brain goes byebye and i stand there with my jaw open lookin' like a real big goofball

Some individuals solve problems by confronting them head-on.

Suppose you were placed in a room full of objectively attractive individuals and forced to engage them in conversation, perhaps over tea. Could you do it?

[skyglider]

Ah. I've noticed it, too.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ it takes a few very, very long minutes for her to come up with a decent reply b because SHE'S ENJOYING THAT MENTAL IMAGE, THANK YOU SIR ]

once I got over the heart attack, maybe. but tea. tea is good. tea is normal. no, wait, tea is fancy! i'd focus on all those fancy kind of manners to impress them!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

YES THANK YOU

I'M UP TO THREE AGREEMENTS, I AM OFFICIALLY NO LONGER CRAZY

[skyglider]

Congratulations on your newfound sanity.

[katonking]

What happened if you don't mind me asking?

[It can't have been that bad right?]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

much appreciated

of course that doesn't actually solve my problem of my brain going byebye when i see a hot guy

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ oof. hm. hoo boy. she doesn't WANT to talk about it, but... at the same time, it's hard to explain without, well, explaining it! ]

the short version???

mom found them
got mad
blamed the dude i was drawing

[katonking]

[Ema stares at the screen and lets out a low whistle.]

Oof. Yeeeeeah that's pretty bad. But the good news is if your mom isn't here then she can't find out, right?

[songbird_slayer]

Ah, stage two then. But have we reached stage three, where some table-slapping happens with a "THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT", or the dreaded stage four, which includes whistling and howling like a starved wolf?

[keystaff]

We don't do school plays all the time. Maybe we sometimes do one for special events or celebrations, festivals. Like once a year, if that. She usually just has a lot of ideas for outfits, so she makes a lot for me since she knows my size.

[skyglider]

... That sounds rough in this weather.

[You...you said "hot" so...]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ good, ema was "satisfied". she doesn't have to share the rest of those details... ]

but there's nothing preventing her from showing up in the future! we get new people like every other month or something right???

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ for a good second she wonders if Madhuri somehow was in her world briefly because MEI LITERALLY DID THAT LAST THING BACK HOME IN PANDA MODE

boy she hopes intense sweat doesn't appear on these pages ]

no

no

no

nonononononononono i do not want to go to those stages

[recreator]

What? No. I'm not talking about a formal afternoon tea in the grand salon of someone's ever-expansive seaside mansion. Think smaller. At a cafe or in the comfort of your own home.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

still, she does sound really awesome! i bet if she wanted to make some real cash, everyone would love up for cosplay clothes!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ pffft. she appreciates the pun. ]

you pass, i needed the giggles

[katonking]

Is it every other month?

[She's gonna quickly write that down in her notebook on the side.]

But really that sounds like a future you problem. Nothing like stretching your wings a little and enjoying your hobbies especially if they aren't harmful to anyone.

[keystaff]

Cosplay? I hadn't thought about that. But she would probably be willing to try. She loves designing and making clothes at least.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

oh yeah that makes much more sense

i've never had boys at my place, mom would freak

but a cafe sounds absolutely perfect!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

they'll be harmful to me if mom finds out

i've already done some stuff she majorly wouldn't approve of

[katonking]

Like what?

[Ema isn't about to be a bad influence. Not completely. She was raised by a former Chief Prosecutor after all.]

[nulland]

Why am I not surprised? Fine.
