[What on Earth are you wearing. :| Easily the weirdest day ever.]

[expectremorse]

[Wtf is this place get me out of here. :c]

[takeyouapart]

I know where that is. I'll come and find you.

[inhistorybooks]

I appreciate it.

[scaryfacemelter]

[strangehstorian]

I can ease your pain if you will come to me.
