it's all :D no charles raised eyebrows of doom here!
sometimes i forget that other people don't live in my brain and automatically know what i'm thinking when i say things. words are a very imperfect medium; i'm going to have to develop telepathy. :)
oh, i don't mean properly like when it's appropriate. i mean properly like saying things like "what the fuck?" which isn't something you'd pick up in school. or "what the hell is wrong with you" or things like that. how to use curses in normal sentences, rather than just as expletives.
in terms of his roommate trying to get erik to join him, i just meant that he'd probably be like, "hey, man, come out for a beer with us tonight," and erik would make a face, and say "no, thank you," and then his roommate would mimic him and say, "no, thank you," with exactly the same intonation, and so erik would throw something at him and say, "fuck off," and the roommate would cheer and hold a hand out for a fist bump and say, "that's more like it!" and erik would roll his eyes and go back to ignoring him, and the roommate would leave.
hooray! :D I'm glad you aren't put off by how demanding I am. because sometimes I feel like I'm pretty stubborn about things, but it's just because I want our story to be the best it can be.
that could help, I suppose. :)
oh, haha, okay. that makes more sense. :D
that also makes more sense, too, w/r/t why Erik's growing frustrated with Charles during our story.
