Mm.

It's better that way, I think. [a little shrug.] I don't want to be an option. I want to be a choice.
no subject

no subject
A what?

I - well, you can make any assumptions you want, I suppose, but you don't know me, either.
no subject
It's the vibes, though. I can smell the wiener. Comes off of you like stink lines.
