:> So m^ny c^tegories of people I c^n c^st Inst^nt Discomfort on just by existing. I persist reg^rdless ^nd do my best to give them sp^ce. <:

:> Oh! qvq Th^t’s very kind of you, Li^lyi. I enjoy your presence too, for your music ^nd your love of bees ^nd w^sps, ^nd your humor, ^nd your intelligence. <:

*tzzk* If they are. Uncomfortable with your existence. Then they should. Get used to discomfort. Or learn. To get over it. To be uncomfortable with someone's actions, is fair. To be uncomfortable with someone's existence. Is something one must. Get over. *sskh*
:> Troll xenophobi^ runs strong, I ^m ^fr^id. The cultur^l fe^r ^nd dislike of ^nything th^t looks like them but is not them is especi^lly common - not entirely for unjustified re^sons, ^s zombies run r^mp^nt in cert^in regions, ^nd there ^re other more ^dv^nced mimics who use ^ troll-like ^ppe^r^nce to prey on them for v^rying re^sons. I do not do th^t. But I ^m, ^dmittedly, unc^nny to most in my own w^ys. So I underst^nd. <:
*tzzk* Just because. It is common and has an understandable reason. Does not mean. It is right. I have been hurt. By people who look certain ways. It would not be correct. For me to turn on people who. Look like those who hurt me. I understand. But it is. Still. Something they need to work on. *sskh*
:> I ^gree in principle, ^nd the ex^mple you mentioned is cert^inly v^lid, but I ^m only one of two of my kind. We ^re not known. It is better if we ^ren’t too well known. And I ^m very d^ngerous, if I choose to be. I c^nnot ex^ctly s^y they ^re wrong. I simply choose to curb my violent ^nd other less s^vory impulses much of the time. <:
*tzzk* I. Understand. I will. Drop the topic, then. I do not think. That your capability for violence. Means that people should react poorly to you, however. It is your choice not to be. That is. Important, I feel. Thank you. *sskh*
:> H^h^. It’s more th^t I enjoy it. But I ^m ^lso ^w^re it is not ^lw^ys ^n ^ppropri^te response ^nd should be tempered. <:
*tzzk* Reasonable. If people will. React that way anyway then. You may as well. Enjoy. Your influence. *sskh*
