...One of my closest friends back home is a giant ghost-like immortal woman whose entire body is covered with tendrils she uses in place of limbs. Rory is made of plastic. Executor Selendis is an alien. You're not the only one with something strange, you know.
I know it's something hard for you. Something you've lived with, and you may think of yourself a certain way... But I just can't. So please don't tell me I should.
