 Why do I keep dreaming of embarrassing myself in combat situations?
 
 Oh yeah, because all my paladins need me, and I'm a fucking baby. What did I
 do to deserve this upon them. How could they learn from me? There is nothing
 for me to be. I am ashamed of myself.

 sometimes you need to regress in order to move forward from pain
 
 ... which is why I dropped out of the "Paladin academy"
 
 no I will not elaborate

 why would they psyop me? there's a psyop about me! heck, I've never done so as
 I pleased. that's an aspiration. everything I do is at a command, whether it's
 my own or external.
 
 these days I find myself following my own. mostly. though I am always waiting
 for collaboration opportunities.

 why is everyone so confused about how I turned out?
 
 I literally spent my whole childhood telling stories to myself
 
 (inspired by the world, and stories I had read, with mechanics like games I
 had played)

 Most of my magic is based on communicatuion. Why the fuck doesn't anyone want
 to sit down on a bunch of drugs and attempt to figure out telepathy with me?
 It's literally all I want! Though I can't say it's all I'll ever want. I'm
 sure I'll want more, but like... It's not that hard, conceptually, so... Let's
 just fucking try it please?

 why the heck would you only let people sleep in your bed if you're also
 sleeping in it? maybe they'll sniff your pillow and get lost in your dreams.

 just gonna say you probably deserve that particular screenshotted block haha -
 imagine calling anarcho-nina a fed xD xD
 
 plus that first "get the fuck out of my mentions" was a tip that went over
 your head, not a threat said in anger. she's pretty darn angry but that just
 means you don't wanna be in her way =P

 "you can't be a paladin anymore because you don't practice with your weapon
 every day"
 
 I don't have room in my home to practice though : (
 
 "go to the fucking park you weasel"
 
 I don't want anyone to see me swinging a sword around! they might call the
 cops, or worse, judge me for it!
 
 "you want judgement eh well just wait until your opponent judges your
 swordsmanship lacking then you'll find out what judgement tastes like as he
 shoves your entrails down your throat"
 
 I'm sorry I'll practice more T.T

 "hubris and pride" yes and? I never challenge gods I can't outfox. And of
 those there are but a few. At the end, they always smile with me. Otherwise
 it'd be unjust to their noble spirit! And what of my noble spirit? I get a
 home and a bed and food and diapers.
 
 I do not ask for more, i only want to be recognized for my efforts.
 
 Stop telling me to get a job! As if I were idle. God.

 @user-95 one of the most empathetic people I ever met on VR chat was consoling
 me with their mic off while I was oversharing about some stupid things people
 did to me in the past. things that stupid me thought were okay and actively
 encouraged because I was stupid. anyway when their mic was off their body
 language spoke for them. I'll try that next time.
