"but it's still sad to see a Pokémon I'm fond of be badmouthed. :("
I like Empress! Sometimes the little quips like that practically write themselves and I have trouble resisting, but I wouldn't have chosen her if I had an actual problem with her. Especially not after overthinking my starter versus my rival's and setting out with the goal that she deserves a better home than Silver's.
But no, trust me, I had my "I wanna be Ben Croshaw when I grow up" phase as far as riffing whatever I was Let's Playing. Ask xyzzysqrl about that. I'm better now, or at least I'm trying to be. More open-hearted and willing to unironically like embarrassing things, at least.
"I see my commenting on this on the last post was, perhaps, rather unnecessary. I guess I already knew that, but I felt compelled to say something anyway."
That's fine. If anything, I appreciate the concern. It's always good to know that people out there are looking out for this poor mon's well-being. :3
"If my terrible memory still carried any of my bullies' names, I couldn't bear to use them. I would hate the reminder more than I'd enjoy any vicarious comeuppance."
I don't know if it's comeuppance so much as... hmm. I'm actually not sure how to explain it. We had kind of an on-off thing, mostly off, and I definitely feel like his presence in my life had more of a negative impact than positive overall. Still, it was... complicated, I guess. There's a lot I can't really say in public.
