lmao I know, but in the end that kind of thing is something I NEED to write, because it helps me figure out my characters.

Just so long as you don't come to me in 8 months and go "BUGLE! WHY DO I WRITE SO MUCH USELESS FLUFF?!?" ♥

Oh, who am I kidding, we both know you will ♥ It's all a part of the cycle of l- writing.
