Have you guys ever made a really poor decision? I'm not talking about the poor decision that a great number of us made yesterday to go down Azurecrest Hill (worth it), but something that has larger consequences and can even be habit-forming? I have made such a poor decision. Over the summer, I allowed myself to get pulled into the dark world of gambling. It started off so innocently - a dragot here, a dragot there, and I was even making money, at one point. But the next few times the 60-sided dice rolled, they did not do so in my favor.

One thing that is important to note about bad people: they do not always act like bad people. They're not all grumpy and projecting this air that they are going to beat you to a pulp. They can smile. They can joke around. They can seem approachable. And it's those bad people that you should really be on the lookout for, because when they start to resemble the bad person you're used to avoiding, you're in deeper shit with them than you ever would have been with the others.

Long story short, I am now taking commissions.
Sketches: 5 dragots.
Ink drawings: 8 dragots.
Colored drawings: 12 dragots.
Non-portrait paintings: 20 dragots.
Portraits: 25 dragots.

	What? No, I think it'll be a hilarious Christmas present. I don't need to stare at Sly's face all day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Why not? It's a nice face. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There's nothing wrong with it, I just see it all the time. Plus, it's a funny present. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But you could see it 24/7. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	.... Do YOU want the painting? Because you can always paint a copy for yourself. I'm trying to get a funny gift for Sly, don't make it a thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't need the painting, I have lots of paintings and sketches of Sly. Why would you wanting the painting be a thing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin vicpower 2016-12-07 10:00 pm UTC (link)
	Of course you do. I don't want it to be a thing. It's just a present. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin compulsive 2016-12-07 10:38 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. I don't understand why it would be a thing though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin vicpower 2016-12-07 10:50 pm UTC (link)
	It isn't and wouldn't be. Anyway, thanks for doing the painting. It'll be hilarious to watch him open it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin compulsive 2016-12-07 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	Okay. Yeah, I'll let you know when it's done. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Just some lingering weirdness about something my sister said. Thanks, you're aces. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin compulsive 2016-12-07 11:02 pm UTC (link)
	Did you say that and expect me not to ask about it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin vicpower 2016-12-07 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	It's so stupid and not even interesting. She just thought I liked Sly because I was going to spend some time there over break. And it wouldn't bug me except I've never liked anyone, let alone my friend. Anyway, see? Boring. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin compulsive 2016-12-07 11:10 pm UTC (link)
	Sly? I always assumed you liked Gavin. Interesting. Things that bother you aren't boring to me. You're my friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin vicpower 2016-12-07 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	Gavin?? What would make you think I liked him? I don't like anyone. I like pranks, my iguana and not thinking about feelings. I appreciate it. I'm just working out the strangeness that is our teenage years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin compulsive 2016-12-07 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know. Just a guess. Does it bother you that I thought that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Vic/Pin vicpower 2016-12-07 11:18 pm UTC (link)
	Not really. I mean, just I guess the overall idea of people assuming I like my friends is a bit odd and that's what I'm puzzling over. But it's not like I'm upset with you or Vee for thinking it. Just wondering what would give someone that impression is all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Then I think you can just let it go. People assume that people who get along have something more going on all the time, especially when it comes to teenagers. It's not weird that Vee jumped to that conclusion. Don't let it eat at you.

But if someone thinking you like Garrett provoked a stronger reaction in you than me thinking you like Gavin, it could be indicative that the former made you realize something you hadn't noticed before. I never thought you liked Gavin, by the way.

	I'm planning on it, don't worry. It's not something I'm obsessing over, I was just trying to work things out in my head. I don't know what I would realize. ...so why did you say that? (Reply to this) (Parent)
