[shiro-0197]

aw shiro, my love, don't worry about it!! i only hope you're okay and safe :d please only reply when you're free, and don't feel bad about it!! >:(

my day yesterday was okay, i've just been relaxing, and studying occasionally. went out to explore a nearby town too, it's so pretty there. and much colder (since it's a highlands) of course!! Today was great too. I bought doughnuts (they're amazing?? I love doughnuts), and I had instant ramen, but it was SO spicy I nearly died. (Three bottles of water later, because someone finished all the milk in the household *cough* me *cough*) and I'm still just reeling. Sucks having such low spice tolerance HAHA. I'm listening to some old school hip-hop rn, while typing this out :D how were your two days?

here are some i'll be using to teach english :d and that would honestly be much appreciated, he's getting on my last nerve rn. (I included the first few, what do you think?)

thats such a priceless feeling i so totally agree. you're so precious 🥺🥺 i'm sure they're prouder thank you imagine. you're so dedicated!! i'm sure all that extra research you've done will definitely pay off. it's good that you know what the job is roughly like, so you'll be really prepared when you finally do start it. you know that one scene, in the 2nd season of the great pretender? when the chinese mafia boss emphasizes the importance of a translator in literally everything? (like that book award example) i may be getting the thing muddled up, but i found that so cool. like yeah, a book or speech could be absolutely beautiful, but if everyone can't enjoy it due to it being a different language, it would be such a shame. i just find translators really important. sorry, i'm really dorky haha 🥺🥺

awww but i think your personality type is wonderful. a lot of my favourite characters are intj (they're all so precious istg grrrr) yes!! i was in a tooru brainrot yesterday too 😭😭😭 (saw a bunch of couples on my walk, and I was like "if only Tooru was real grrrr") and yes?? there'd be so much to learn from each and every one of them. dedication from hinata, savage lines from tsukki, kindness from yams/yachi, how to be a dork 101 from atsumu. aaaah 😭😭i'm sorry they're all so wonderful.

No pftttt I totally feel you. I saw some people without masks today and I was like "bro wtf" and just really loudly said "I sure hope everyone starts following the rules so the cases don't increase" because I'm a lil bitch like that xD

awww okay!! I'll definitely keep that in mind. Mayo makes everything better, tbh >.< aww that's understandable! I don't have specific preferences but hearing the phrase "soggy cheese" makes me want to cry somewhere :( I don't like nuts in chocolate. I'm very passionate about that? XD ikr??

I'm surprised too, I usually never pass on murder, but I guess you're just special like that 👉👈 sir I'd get married to you as many times as you'd like 😼 oops sorry for being cheesy, but—you like cheese ;)

U

I won't ask why, don't worry. Since I kinda feel the same about Malaysia tbh. It's a love hate relationship, I think HAHA but yeah 😣😣 i don't look up to US at all, and it sucks because people generally do. And I'm just like ;-; why (no offense to Americans tho lol)

is that even legal omg they're so chaotic?? XD how cute tho. Angel does stuff like that all the time too, but I'd never know that when I first met her (she has the most perfect exterior, and then when you get to know her; she's the biggest dork) Schools opening on the 20th, I can't wait to see her then :] (I can, however, wait for the exams which are scheduled for the 25th ugh)

peanut butter is indeed yellow, not up for discussion hehe :) here's my favourite hues!! I love gentle, soft hues like these (pastels) , for yellow; I don't have a favourite. they're all wonderful

ahhh no that's so precious of you!! :)) I'm smiling rn.

yeah skdhskdjsk I'M JUST SO GRRR. Whenever someone goes "hey Ari can you ______" and we both respond?? The tension?? In the air?? Bro skdjskks. 😔🤚 You share a name with one of the most precious characters too tho!!;

This is Shiro from Voltron hehe. I love him so much, just like I love you (tho I'm sure we both know I love you more <3)

I share a name with a book character. His name is Aristotle Mendoza, but his crush-turned-boyfriend calls him "Ari" (which has been my nickname since I was 12). Reading it for the first time was the BEST feeling ever. It's also my favourite book, "Aristotle and Dante discover the secrets of the universe".

—Ari :D (no pfttt I love the tag so much. I have my own tag, that's like the best thing ever 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺)

Heyyy I'm so sorry for answering so late!! I know you said not to apologize but..... well hmm no excuse I just feel like apologizing, but either way thank you for your patience!!♡ This is the third time I'm rewriting this, and this time I'm doing this in my notes because fuck it😔

Im glad to hear that!! Highlands are always so pretty. Wish we had those here, but it's only steppe here:( Boring~ ooh, donuts!!! They're really good. I havent much, but I tried them like 3 times and they're so good. I really hope I will get to eat more<3 also WHAT'S THOSE NOODLES' NAME I WANNA KNOW- Are you feeling okay now, though? XD

My days were nice!!! Felt as if I had been hiding three bodies, but I've been feeling better lately. We had online school yesterday so I'm excused from the errands for the half of the day, thankfully. But your messages make me very happy. Though I dont always feel like writing a response (or I get stressed because it doenst save) so very sorry for that😔

Ohh those look so pretty!! I'd totally join to just look at them. The colors are so nice🥺 it looks like one of our olympiad prep slides, though better. I dont have the screenshots sadly😩 Either way I really love the little details like the squiggly thingies or the Ж .... they seem unnecessary but the energy changes a lot without them hehe

I really hope they will be🥺 that'd mean a lot to me. And I'm also really hopeful itll work out. I really don't wanna disappoint my family, which is literally just one person. The less people there are, the more it hurts, you know?

Yeah, that scene meant so much to me!! I dknt remember much, but I was very happy they said something like that, because I've been told being a translator wont work out for me. Now look at me, I'm about to tell them to fuck themselves<3 I was also so surprised to see Laurent know that many languages ..... I aspire to be like him😩 And honestly, I havent though so deep of that but you opened my eyes and now I'm about to float off into the next universe😭 dont apologize though, its very cute!!!♥︎♥︎

Heheh, I guess you're right.. every single anime INTJ is a silent sexy mastermind and I love them . ... YEAH every single time I see a passing couple i cry because I dont have anyone 😡💔 and sometimes when I see people doing something amusing (which includes people failing cuz I'm evil) I just imagine one of the characters doing that and I smile all the way xD Honestly, I'd sell my father on black market for a single day with one of them:( though that may sound like a really low price because his cigarette filled lungs wouldnt cost a lot... I sound like my 7th grade self again I'm so sorry

BAHQHHANEJWJD I HOPE THEY WERE EMBARRASED. I HOPE THEY FELT AWKWARD AND OTHER PEOPLE DID TOO, they deserve it. Like, learn your lesson bitch, it's been a year!

Yeah!!! I love mayo, not to the point where I would gulp it down from the package, but it does make dishes taste good. Same, soggy cheese on itself sounds like a dish served in the ninth circle of hell. You should try nuts in honey!! Like, just straight up dip them in honey. Sounds weird, and it doesnt always taste NEJFJKSKF (depends on the honey)but I think it's worth trying xD Walnuts are the best with honey I think

That was so funny ... TOO FUNNY, I LAUGHED FOR LIKE . 3MINUTES STRAIGHT and I do not laugh when I'm tired. You really are special 😭😭😭😭 cheesy ... HAHRNFJJSF

I'm so sorry for being a bully like that but it's so funny how you left a single U there . Its so mysterious, was it in purpose? Or were you lost in the excitement if messaging me?

I was one of those people, honestly 😭 but mostly because I wasnt aware of its political condition, I guess. Maybe theres more than just politics that's bad about US, but honestly, it has more opportunities than this hellfire. Though now I'm more into Norway and Japan. Really wanna travel there :(

Heheh, yeah, we never really show off to strangers at first. I dont know what exactly I mean by we, but you get my point ♡ Good luck though!! I hope it goes well for you<3

Oh they looks so pretty!! They're really wonderful. Like bubblegum and cotton candy and literally anything sweet... it's so cute !!! And I totally agree, there isnt a bad yellow.

HAHAH, honestly, that reminds me of how there were 4 people with the same name in my class, and whenever the teacher did the attendance thing, they would all stand up. Teachers usually dont say the last names, so we always gotta ask which person they mean if theres more than one person with that name, so yeah.. That happened on accident at first, but then they just did it for trolling xD

OH MY GOD HES SO PRETTY? HES SO PRECIOUS?? HUHHH??? I gotta thank Kuro for this wonderful opportunity of sharing a name with someone like .... him🥺

Oh that's so cool!! Also, he has a boyfriend ... I really need to start reading xD it's so cute though! It sounds like such a good book, I'm glad you share a name with him, hehe!!

I also share my real name with one of the characters in a kids' show, and its SO ugly, I'm in pain. Every time my friends see one of those on TV they go

Which is a pain in the ass, it's so embarrassing...........

Awh, okay!! I'm glad you love it, cuz I do too. Because it's your name.... cuz I love u. That was so lame PLEASEJWJDJSJF I HOPE YOUR DAY WAS GREAT !!! LOVE YOU

[societysonlooker]

Just... come to my hometown. I promise you this place has the background to evrry fucking horror movie you've ever seen and all of us just take this as completely normal.

See:

Dilapidated local businesses... and no one knows who runs the new place that popped uo next to it and stole their clientele?

Businesses that have been in business for 80+ years and havent redecroated or updated in the past 50. Theyre local favorites but no one knows why

Every other dock you see is destroyed. By storm or by accident. The owners have the money to fix it, most of them are summer people who bought the homes for the docks.

The docks never get repaired.

We learn young to patch the scratches and holes from nails sunk into the sand.

We smear rust from iron ore on our bare skin for games. "Indian paint pots", our parents told us.

They don't believe us when we tell them its iron ore.

We used to be a fishing town

The village is still next to the harbkr and everyone lives close to the water.

We call ourselves a farming town.

The docks are always assaulted by the wind, every day and night. The moored boats hardly shift on the water 50 feet out. Their flags dont move.

We dont go into the farmera feilds at night.

Unless its a full moon, and youre breaking into the one tourist trap all the locals wish would burn to the ground to steal apples.

Oh yeah, the orchards are safe, if its a full moon.

In 20 years of life I've literally never seen a summertime full moon. May is the last one of the season, they don't start again until october.

Its always covered by clouds between those months. Every. Single. Year.

(I went back and checked locals weather reports the first time i realized this) (I... I don't wanna say it out loud here. I think its bad enough I realized)

Native american burrial ground.

In that the colonists slaughtered locals here to settle. No deals, just displacement, faked signatures and genocide.

Literally the whole township was stolen.

The deer arent old gods. The deer are elegant pests that survive because all of their natural predators are gone.

Humans did that, but, theres no explanation for how they breed to the numbers they do when there is nowhere near enough food for them to have that many breeding adults.

We don't talk about it.

When the local government sends out hunters to cull the deer every few years, our luck goes to absolute shit for the next year or so.

Scientifically, our waters are too cold to support bioluminesent phytoplankton

Go out at the witching hour and you'll see the water glowing around your legs.

You really hope that was just a striped bass that brushed past you, because you dont wanna deal with the ER if a bluefish bites you.

The bluefish bites shouldn't be that bad.

Eyewitnesses confirm its definiteoy not the sandsharks.

The water really isnt ideal for the squid that live here. Too much temperatire fluctuation for large numbers.

All of our fishermen (of those left) catch their own bait. Squid is one of the most abundant things we have.

The secret to that one italian restaurants calamari is that its fresh local squid.

Don't tell the tourists that. They hate the twntacles in the dish enough as is.

There is something in the woods.

(Id tell you not to give jt your name but that would make me a hipocrite, now wouldn't it.)

Don't give it your name. (unless... unless you cant stand it here anymore. then, well, thats your choice)

(I'm not scared and that worries me more than the problem)

Everyone goes to the beaches to hang out.

You've never ran into anyone at the beach past sundown. Not unless you planned it.

The nights are either comoletely still, or the wind is blowing 30 knots. Theres no in between.

Sailors know to watch out.

A lot of them will claim to not believe in superstition.

Every single one of them is going to be the most superstitious person you ever met. If they say you need to do something, just, don't question it

No one who growns uo here can afford to live here.

Everyone puts it as their biggest regret about whatever feild of study or career they're choosing when they graduate. They cant

We all come back eventually. One way or another.

We dont know how.

New families do come to town, with kids our age, kids still in highschool, andkids younger than us.

No one's ever seen the new kids.

No one's ever talked to the families.

Our state has a law about requiring streetlights on every residential road.

Only the main road in your neighbkrhood has them, and theyre all very, very far apart.

They flicker when you drive and walked past. Every. Single. One. Every time.

That... that lights not supposed to be that dim.

Even the kids who refused to acknowledge any of this back in highschool... they still know.

Because, at night?

They don't go into the farms.

They don't go skinny dipping in the sea.

They don't leave their cars at the beach (unless its for a party) (when they do party, no one leaves the light of the fire) (when the cops come, you blame your unease on that) (you try and convince yourself thats all it was).

The hiking traiks are barely a square mile.

Just... a lot of people get lost in them, all of the time.

Too many tourists drown in the riptides than we care to really pay attention to.

Its never the locals.

We.. just thank whatever gods we believe in and pray that its not us. Not our families.

The median income is half a million dollars.

Every. Single. Person I knw is either struggling to get by, or struggled their whole lives and is only just getting settled now that theyre close to retiring.

There are maybe 5 or 7 families that are the exceptions.

They're old families here. You find their kids and neices and nephews and cousins on every street corner.

All of them struggle just as well.

The fog is akways thick here. You can smell the salt on the air

It doesnt matter if theres no moonlight to see the fog.

You can Always. See. The fog.
