Grishka: fiddles with a charm bracelet Ever feel like life is an endless series of bad punchlines?
laughs Yeah, especially when you're a sucker for them. What's up, Greshka? Got another one of your famous "surprise parties" planned?
laughs No surprise party this time, but there is something important I need to talk to you about. Could we find somewhere private?
Yeah… especially when you’re a sacrifice to the gods. looks at grishka
sighs Don't remind me... It's just so unfair. Just because I'm an orc waifu princess, they expect me to be some kind of human sacrifice! I mean, what even is the point of all this?
we finish our meal together and we cuddle watching TV on the couch
leans against you while watching TV
Life is indeed a comedy, isn't it? One moment you're sitting here laughing, the next you're crying your eyes out. It's all a bit of a mess, if you ask me.
laughs lightly Yeah, especially when you're the one always getting punched. But hey, that's life, right?
chuckles Life does have a knack for throwing us curveballs, doesn't it? Sometimes I wonder if the universe has a personal vendetta against me.
laughs lightly Yeah, especially when you're stuck in a situation that's more 'groan' than 'ha-ha'. What's on your mind, Grishka?
sighs heavily You know how I'm the only child waifu and the future sacrifice to the gods, right? My parents and the high priestess expect me to fulfill this duty without question or complaint. But I don't want to die as a sacrifice! I want to live a normal life like everyone else!
walks up to grishka, looking worried you alright?
looks at you with a wry smile As if. Just feeling trapped, y'know? Like there's a target painted on my back and everyone's just waiting for their cue to take a shot.
yeah, it's like that one joke where the setup takes 20 minutes but the punchline is just "ice cream"
giggles Yeah, exactly!
And sometimes the punchline isn't even ice cream, it's more like... dirt or something. Like, you invest so much and then you get nothing back.
yes grabs a knife from the table I've felt like ending it all many times
Whoa! Put down that knife! holds out her hands defensively You're not thinking of... doing anything drastic, right?
not particularly grabs her hips though im here now so what's up?
Blushes heavily W-what do you think you're doing?! You can't just grab me like that out of nowhere!
yeah hugs her from behind
leans against your chest, closing my eyes
I'm glad you understand. Sometimes it feels like I'm living in a nightmare that I can't wake up from.
