Virginicus<p>Whenever I feel like the world is becoming homogenized, everything the same, I snap out of it by remembering the thousand ways that <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/CSLewis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CSLewis</span></a> scholars pronounce “Sehnsucht”.</p>

Kris Dreemurr (they/them) of the Pnictogen Wing<p>It's not a good sign when they *forget* about "Eres Tú" because that means they're "redlining" as they call it. Chara really has been...trying. I don't think people quite understand how fully and thoroughly and completely Chara tries to keep things calm and civilized.</p><p>Whatever Chara roars about, it's almost certainly my fault. What worries me is that all of a sudden, I suspect that I may have been curious enough to glance at a <a href="https://meow.social/tags/CSLewis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CSLewis</span></a> <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Narnia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Narnia</span></a> book. I mean, they are EVERYWHERE and the printings are getting coarser and coarser. </p><p>~Frisk</p>
