Everything's better with pics/gifs (been waitin' to use this one)
Date: 11/6/10 06:12 am (UTC)I'm pretty sure I would have a break-down if something happened between you and Costis. Your love is so inspiring to me. I mean, if y'all can't make it, then love would be dead to me. Dead.
Looool. I'm pretty sure you're never ever ever in the history of ever going to live that down. It's legendary. And I'm just glad it wasn't me.

Re: Everything's better with pics/gifs (been waitin' to use this one)
Date: 11/6/10 06:22 am (UTC)You must. They have to accept it for the greater good. We don't want poor Sounisians (like me) withering away to nothing and becoming bitter old spinsters who don't believe in true love

(4) Hmm... Sorry about that one. It seems to have confused a lot of people. What does Gen say he wants to do after the sword fight in KoA? I honestly didn't think that one would be so difficult. *apologizes*
(7) Even in retrospect, I doubt she'd say she had fun.
Well, don't look at me. Some government spy wrote this. Not me.
(14) Come on... Everybody voted. Too many girls love him after all.

But, but... Mods are supposed to set examples of equality and fairness, right? And hey! No scribbling in the rule book! My test! My rules!
Great score! I'm glad you enjoyed.
Serious business? What? Err... What are you doing with that axe, Jade? A government spy wrote it. Remember? A government spy!
AAAAhhh!
