More, it's like... I guess I'm ready to be in control of my own fate again. [...] Our field trip this last week just felt like... a role. Like I was doing exactly what someone else wanted me to do.
I don't like feeling helpless like that. And I don't, in Exandria. I haven't, for a long time.
Yeah, Molly's not even the worst of it when it comes to colorful.
[claude actually gets to see beau like, on the verge of overflowing with happiness? it's so nice to not be bogged down by murders and helplessness. and seeing her friends happy really helps.]
I have a list, man, you - fuck, you have got to see Hupperdook. You haven't lived until you've seen how crazy they get at night there.
