Finding Yourself

Dammit, Vik. How Can You Not Know What’s Wrong With This Thing? Can’t You Commune With It Or Something? (devyn) My Name Is Not ‘dammit, Vik’ And I Find It Ironic That You Think I Can Commune With All Metal Beings When You Can Barely Communicate Your Point Of View To Your Own Parents.

It’ll Probably Be Brutal, Too. They Might Even Feed You To The Dog. He Doesn’t Have A Dog. Yeah, Well, He Might Get One Just To Feed You To It. She’d Never Been The Kind Of Person To Let Something As Ridiculous As Rational Logic Interfere With Her Fear.’ (alix)
