Act 6, page 5263

LATULA: bro!!!! 1 h34r youv3 b33n h4ssl1ng th3 n3w k1dz. wh4t 1s UP w1th th4t???

KANKRI: Hassling? Far fr9m it. I've merely disc9vered a new and far less ungrateful fl9ck which has n9t yet 6ec9me w9efully jaded t9 my messages 9f p9sitive s9cial change.

KANKRI: Can y9u sc99t away 9n y9ur little wheeled t9y f9r immature wigglers? I was in the middle 9f a serm9n.

KANKRI: I d9n't remem6er. And n9, I w9n't 6e sharing my 9ld mem9s with him. They were written very p99rly, and my meth9ds 9f argumentati9n were flawed and extremely childish. I've deleted m9st 9f th9se mem9ries fr9m these 6u66les, s9 d9n't 69ther r99ting ar9und f9r them. Frankly, they stunk.

LATULA: h3y!

KANKRI: 9h, man, I'm s9rry. I c9mpletely f9rg9t that "stunk" was an a6leist slur. Please f9rgive my insensitivity t9ward y9ur disa6ility.

LATULA: 1tz ch1ll, 1 w4s only 4ct1ng off3nd3d to bug you.

KANKRI: N9, really, it was inexcusa6le 9f me. I sh9uld have at least preceded my call9us remark with a trigger warning.

#Trigger warning: #Em6arrassed retracti9ns ahead

KANKRI: I have n9 6usiness making light 9f y9ur impairment, thus failing t9 check my nasal privilege, and p9tentially 6ringing 6ack painful and devastatingly triggering mem9ries 9f the 9ld cycle 9f revenge 6etween y9u and s9me friends which resulted in the l9ss 9f y9ur 9lfact9ry sense. I have t9 admit, I was skeptical at first a69ut whether that really qualified as a true disa6ility warranting sensitivity and the pr9m9ti9n 9f awareness, 6ut 6eing cl9se t9 y9u as a friend and carefully examining my privilege has really 9pened my eyes. 99ps, that euphemism is slightly a6leist t9 the 6lind, what I meant was "6r9adened my h9riz9ns 9n the nature 9f disa6ility." S9rry.

KANKRI: My pleasure. Really, it is truly amazing that y9u have managed t9 triumph 9ver such adversity t9 6ec9me a great r9le m9del f9r 9thers, excellent at vide9 games, and a t9tally stellar skate69arding pers9n, all while 6eing a girl, n9 less.

Kankri's hot

//TW: Catcalling, N9nc9nsensual flirtati9n, 69dy image, All9n9rmativity, Assumpti9ns, Alliterati9n.

Hell9, an9n. While I ackn9wledge, and am admittedly s9mewhat flattered 6y, y9ur appreciati9n 9f my alleged aesthetic attractiveness, I must assert t9 y9u that m9st d9 n9t derive much enj9yment fr9m crude, unpr9mpted c9mments 9n their physical appearance, p9sitive 9r 9therwise. It’s quite a sensitive issue f9r m9st—myself included, if I may insert my 9wn pers9nal feelings int9 this t9pic. Reminders 9f the way 9ne is perceived 6y 9thers due t9 their appearance is quite a jarring, upsetting 9ccurence, whether this percepti9n is r9mantic, sexual, 9r aesthetic attracti9n, 9r n9t. N9t t9 menti9n that n9t every9ne is capa6le 9f, 9r wants t9 experience such attracti9ns t9 9thers—9nce again, myself included—and acting 9n the assumpti9n that every9ne can is a 6elief 6ased entirely in all9n9rmativity, and that is a t9pic that needs it’s 9wn sensitivity serm9n. It is quite a pervasive 6east.

Thank y9u, anyways, f9r the attempt at a c9mpliment. I will tentatively assume that y9u meant well 6y it, and leave m9re lectures 9n it f9r later. I will 6e expecting y9u.

♋ The Signless x Reader Oneshot Goodbye my precious matesprite🩸

Signless was sitting under a big tree. The sun had recently set and soon he and his friends had to leave the temporary camp. But before he leaves this place, he wanted to talk to you. Or rather, to say goodbye. Under the tree, right next to it, was your grave. You've known Signless for a long time. You were always with him and supported him. You were his matesprite. You've been through a lot together. But nothing can last forever. You're dead. You sacrificed yourself to protect your friends from death. All they could do for you was bury you. Kankri sighed heavily.

"Hell9. It l99ks like t9day will 6e 9ur last c9nversati9n. Y9u kn9w, this wasn't supp9sed t9 happen. We had t9 c9ntinue 9ur j9urney t9gether. 6ut that's n9t g9ing t9 happen n9w. I should have pr9tected y9u, n9t the 9ther way ar9und. I'm s9rry..."

He lowered his head. There were tears in his voice. It was hard for him. He loved you very much and now that you are no longer around, he felt an emptiness in his soul. The only thing that made him move on was the thought that you wouldn't want him to give up his life's work.

"T9day there will 6e a very imp9rtant serm9n, I h9pe that everything will g9 well, it's a pity that y9u w9n't 6e a6le t9 see... Kn9w that my red feelings f9r y9u will never weaken... G99d6ye my preci9us matesprite..."

He left, hoping that he would be able to visit you again. He had no idea that you would meet very soon, although not in the way that you both would like.

It is nearly 03:00 and Kankri Vantas wishes t9 die.

Y9u’re 9ne 9f the reas9ns I w9nder why I live. Y9ur existence and y9ur death was a j9ke, played 6y y9u- played 9n y9u. Life has n9t 6een kind t9 y9u, as it has 6een unkind t9 all 9f us. Y9ur 9utward scars are just an expressi9n 9f what y9u’ve 6een thr9ugh, marks 9f wh9 y9u are and what y9u’ve d9ne. Y9u need t9 try harder. I kn9w things are t9ugh and y9u are l9st in a new w9rld, 6ut I need y9u t9 try. If n9t f9r me, then f9r y9urself; if n9t f9r y9urself, then f9r me.I have seen h9w kind y9u can be, and I ask, why is it 9nly n9w that I see it? Are 9thers like y9u? Children in adult vessels, acting as s9ciety demands merely 6ecause it’s expected 9f y9u? Is that any way t9 live? Please. Please, learn; learn t9 love, and learn t9 live. Y9u deserve it. Even after everything, y9u’re just an9ther child l9st and a6and9ned 6y the system that is supp9sed t9 care f9r you.They say y9u’re s9 high, that y9u’re s9 special, and they kill y9u. Y9u suffer in ways y9u w9uld n9t if you were s9me9ne else. We all d9. The saying ‘walk a mile in s9me9ne else’s sh9es’ plays a crucial part in life; we cann9t act as th9ugh s9mething is right and g99d if we’ve 9nly seen it fr9m 9ne angle. Please. We all need t9 6e us. Children, scared and l9st and al9ne, but us, 6ecause 9ur m9st pure selves is what the w9rld needs us t9 6e t9 make it right, s9 that n9 9ne else has t9 6e what the w9rld needs them t9 be.

Would you kindly tell us about one of your happiest memories?

9ne 9f my happiest mem9ries?

Hm... having th9se wh9 w9uld want t9 supp9rt me was nice 6ut i’m n9t sure i c9uld have called it happy...

9h! There was a time this nice cerulean tr9ll passed 6y 9ne 9f my serm9ns as i sp9ke 9f wanting t9 teach my message acr9ss the h9riz9ns. Despite n9t kn9wing my gr9up fr9m any 9ther 6band 9f l99ns she seemed t9 understand alm9st as if she knew m9re than my 9wn f9ll9wing, she gave me the first ship f9r us t9 sail 9n t9 spread the w9rds.

....the freed9m 9f n9t 9nly being Heard, but underst99d set me free alm9st like the wind 9ver th9se seas....i think that was 9ne 9f the Happiest M9ments i remember... i still s9metimes w9nder wh9 she was, she hid her identity as th9ugh she didnt want t9 be seen. It l99ked l9nely...

[pr9metheus-blog]

And n9w t9 talk a69ut an issue that is quite cl9se t9 me (I was 9riginally g9ing t9 speak a69ut High6l99d privilege in my next l9nger p9st, 6ut that is 9n the figurative “6ack6urner” f9r n9w.), which is the punishment 9f tr9lls wh9 d9 n9t fit in with the Empress’ ideals 9f what her Empire sh9uld 6e. The use 9f punishment 6y death f9r m9st, if n9t all, matters is an extreme we sh9uld n9t turn t9. The C9ndesce 6reeds us like animals, uses 9ur lives as 6argaining chips, and expects us t9 eagerly await her 9rders. The unf9rtunate truth 9f the matter is, we play exactly int9 her plans.

If a tr9ll d9es n9t fit int9 her standard f9r what she wishes the race t9 6ec9me, they are culled. There is n9 l9ng f9rm 9f the matter, it’s a very simple truth. Tr9lls wh9 are physically 9r em9ti9nally 9utliers, tr9lls wh9 d9n’t fit int9 her preci9us hem9spectrum, tr9lls wh9 aren’t r9mantically 9r sexually inclined, n9ne 9f them are safe fr9m her laws. The c9ncept 9f destr9ying th9se in an attempt t9 6reed y9ur race like s9me s9rt 9f animal is a6surd. The C9ndesce w9uld rather wave her weap9ns ar9und and cull th9se wh9 d9 n9t fit int9 the sl9ts that she deems us w9rthy 9f, just s9 she can get an “ideal” gr9up 9f su6jects (And that is all we are t9 her, su6jects at 6est. At w9rst, we are simply livest9ck.). H9w many tr9lls have t9 die 6ef9re we stand up t9 this? 9ne min9r flaw, 9ne accident, an unsuccessful r9mantic life, all 9f these can put an unjust end t9 9ne’s life. It is senseless. We are standing 6y and watching tr9lls die 6ef9re their prime, just 6ecause 9f things they cann9t c9ntr9l.

N969dy dares speak up t9 this treatment, 6ecause she c9ntr9ls 9ur race with fear. She rules with a gold plated ir9n fist, and we get n9thing in return except f9r the pr9mise 9f death 6eing sweeps later if we 96ey. When the pr9mise 9f life isn’t en9ugh t9 keep a tr9ll silent, the threat 9f t9rture is passed al9ng t9 9thers. N969dy wants t9 die, and n969dy wants t9 suffer their way t9 an early demise. N969dy wants t9 6e strung up and humiliated until their final 6reath. She d9es n9t care f9r the masses, she d9es n9t care if y9u are a fundamentally a g99d tr9ll 9r a 6ad tr9ll. She cares if y9u are useful, and if y9u cause tr9u6le t9 her pers9nal ut9pia, she will make it kn9wn t9 all alive at the time that the 6ehavi9ur w9n’t stand. And then, t9 th9se wh9 will hatch later, y9u will 6e n9thing m9re than a myth.

We sh9uld n9t stand f9r this, n9, we cann9t stand f9r this. Why must we all 6leed f9r the sake 9f a tr9ll that sees us as n9thing m9re than a means t9 an end? Why must we 6ear the weight 9f her wishes when she will n9t give us even a sliver 9f respect? Her thirst f9r p9wer will 6e the end 9f us all. In life, I w9uld have t9ld every9ne t9 w9rk t9gether t9 find a peaceful s9luti9n, and t9 av9id a vi9lent fr9nt. I kn9w wh9 she 9nce was. I kn9w w9 we all 9nce were. I had h9ped that every9ne c9uld have m9ved 9n int9 a future reflecting that past life, 6ut n9t even I c9uld keep t9 that character. This w9rld has shaped us all int9 wh9 we are n9w, and will c9ntinue t9. I have learned the hard way that peace will n9t always 6e the c9rrect way t9 w9rk against her. I cann9t 6e the 9ne t9 advise y9ur tactics.

I can 9nly h9pe that s9me9ne will try t9 take up the resp9nsi6ility t9 reshape the w9rld t9 put an end t9 this cycle.
