PIC: Pretty Young Lad (Jaffar/Princess, PG)

"My, my, aren't you a pretty young lad." He lifts her chin with the sharp tip of his cane and observes her, leaning closer, eyes slitted with the delight of the play. "If I didn't know better, I would've thought you a girl."

LOVE THIS
Ugh I'mma just comment on everything

[snowgrouse]

You're welcome! The whole "ugh" thing gives me the hives, though, so I'd like to request less of that, please. Sorry if that sounds rude of me, but I really can't stand it and the immature image it gives of the people who use it (it sounds so bratty-teenage-girly, the sort who pops gum and twirls her pigtails and goes "ewwww, boys" and bullies other girls). So when someone uses it when commenting on my stuff it sounds like they're a kid sneering and whining at me, so any positive message will have been destroyed alongside it. I kind of ignored it before but I have to mention it now that you're over at my place and all--it just comes across badly, that's all. That, and I'm a horribly language-hypersensitive person with overdeveloped linguistic areas in her brain, so that's yet another annoying thing people have to put up with me when communicating with me--some words can feel like forks on a plate or screaming babies or drills when they enter my brain. (I'm basically Sherlock with all the autistic asshole, none of the genius.) I hope

Sure, no problem. I'll keep that in mind for the future.

Thanks for understanding; it's really appreciated. This is one of the reasons I don't socialise on the internets much because I have so much stupid shit that triggers all kinds of brain spasms that basically turn me into the Hulk. And it's not an attitude thing but often inborn neurological stuff as well, pretty much like a bunch of mental allergies. On the plus side, the hyperlinguism brings you guys tons of pornfic, so there's that.
