As I'm making an effort to be more open, here's a glimpse at my progress/process.
You can find the full text for the passages below the cut.
Passage 1:
Behind the thick glasses, he looks back at you—not challenging, but unflinching. He's... confident. When it comes to this, at least. And not just confident, exceedingly confident.
Demons cannot lie.
You know this to be false—you just proved it so.
But, for whatever reason, Tommy is wholeheartedly convinced of this.
In his eyes, you cannot lie to him.
Play along. - [lying]
Ask him why he thinks this. - [curious]
Prove him wrong. - [honest]
Admit that you've already lied. - [honest]
Passage 2:
[Play along]
Well, what Tommy doesn't know { either: "can't hurt you" or "could be used to hurt him later" }...
You lean forward. The legs of the chair slam down onto the floor. "Great. I'm glad I don't have to explain that." You examine him, adopting a smile that's subtle enough to appear unintentional but noticeable enough for Tommy to catch it. "You know what, kid? You're more clever than you look."
"Oh," Tommy's head tilts the other way. "Cool. Thanks... I guess?" Something clicks, a flame sparks in the depths of his dull eyes. "Wait! Cool! That's it. We were talking about the contract—specifically, what it means to be cool."
Continue
[Ask him why he thinks this]
"Why do you think that?"" you ask.
"Think what?"
"That demons cannot lie."
"Cause before, when we formed the contract, you told me—" Horror dawns across Tommy's his face. "Wait... Can you lie? Did you lie to me back then?"
"I can't answer that second question—thanks to you—but I can lie now. So... what do you think?" – [honest]
"No. Like you said, demons can't lie. If I can't lie now, I probably couldn't then." – [lying]

I didn't say it before but Kyrgios was handsome. In Ways of Survival, a handsome person was often described as 'comparable to Yoo Joonghyuk' and this was a perfect way to describe Kyrgios.
I swear I'm gonna scream if it turns out Dokja is the author or something. The Joonghyuk simping is so next level it's on another plane of existence.

Flint's what? What are you, psychotic?! I barely know the guy!
[ Pause, and he's tapping a finger to his chin. ]
Well, on one hand he is kinda cute, but... On the other hand? Still hardly know him, but wouldn't be opposed to th-- Why am I saying this to you guys?

So... Here's the thing...
I liked April and Jackson together. They were sweet and funny. But then, just as quickly as they got together, they had the typical unnecessary Grey's drama and the stupid breaking up for a really dumb reason that no real couple would break up over. And they were done.
And April met Matthew. And you know what? They are cute together! They're sweet and I just generally like them. And Jackson got with Stephanie and there's no sign he's not happy with her, no sign he still had feelings for April. I mean, if you really squinted you might have seen something here and there but for the most part there's nothing that suggests he would interrupt her wedding to declare his love. So, it just feels so cheap!
I mean, all it really does is make Jackson look like the mother of all assholes! Not just for doing it April's wedding of all times, but by not giving Stephanie even the slightest heads up that he wasn't into her the way she was into him. I mean, the girl was obviously falling hard and Jackson dumps her by a two word apology (right after they were seemingly in a perfect place) and then professing his love for someone else? Like what the fuck dude?!
I want to support April and Jackson because they did seem good together before but now... I like April and Matthew and Jackson's come across as a dick who doesn't deserve April OR Stephanie!

Listen up!
I have to write this down because I'm too neurotic and obsessive to let this run free like a river in my head...
IDK in which chapter, one of the firsts from S2 coer 2 from T&B but: there's a green formula (Kotetsu) and Red formula (Barnaby) falling down and mixing up inside another recipient and RAINBOW COLORS COME OUT FROM THAT MIX.
I'm not lying. Someone go catch that scene.
Visual Narrative matters, okay?
Bye. I'm dead.

Funny thing about Quake III Arena:
One of these characters is called Visor, the other Anarki.
Guess who:
Did you guess right?
The one with the little visor is called Anarki.
Let’s try again.
One of these characters is called Hunter, the other Angel.
Guess who:
Did you guess right?
The one with the winged helmet is called Hunter.
Let’s do one more.
One of these characters is called Slash, the other Klesk.
Guess who:
Did you guess right?
The one with the claws is called Klesk.
At least there’s Orbb:
