*do I actually HATE Zelda 2???

Rem- Jeanne's full story in Extella, pretty good

Think the only slander Joan gets is from the English. To them, I'm sure "I never killed anyone" from Joan struck a similar chord to Batman's no-kill rule.

It'd be good if more stuff were pro-marriage and children here. Guess it starts with us

+choosing wife in DQV. Obviously Bianca, it's my first time. How can you not choose her, when you grew up with her & her dad asks you to stay with her because you make her so happy? Meanwhile Flora's got a gorillion other suitors so you at least know she'll be fine without you.

(moody brainlet commentary on the story, but it's such a good story)

Feral jungle gf's a peak trope. Also, thanks for reading, Ask.

I must say DidntAsk, reading your blog entries is like reading up on someone's thoughts throught the day at exact intervals of 2 hours and 43 minutes; sometimes they're coherent and sometimes they're not. They're also always interesing to read

Also where do you find these stories?!?!?

thank you very much lol & they're from "The Island of Dr. Death and Other Stories and Other Stories" Gene Wolfe is one of muh favorite authors!

-_- i FORGOT to mention, the story's called "Alien Stones", because it's a reference tooooo... that ancient pre-abacus counting method of putting small stones on a board. And uh... i don't remember why they were talking about that in the story though ~_~ sry.

something I forgot was that the island originally thought Oldbro would kill Youngbro-- "You, who are so easily hated, so different from what it is thought a boy should be." Was he originally introduced to the island *just* to be killed, when Oldbro wouldn't kill Girl when he was alone with her?

When Youngbro realized he had to be a BETA, Oldbro stopped attacking him and taught him to survive. So was the island's plan thwarted? What really made him kill Girl, after the three of them were able to form their own little society? The island even says "This is the death *I* chose for her".

It's interesting that he was only allowed to leave after killing her. At one point the girl says "sometimes he wants to kill me", so maybe he really couldn't be trusted to return to society until he knew from experience that he didn't enjoy killing. And the island would rather her be killed than some random person in the future, whose life might have actually mattered, unlike hers. Very sad.

That's got to be it, right? Why else introduce Youngbro, believing he'd be killed, when he wasn't killing Girl? The island wanted him to kill someone. And when Youngbro demonstrated he could function in Le Society better than Girl, it refocused on having her killed after all.
