My roommate: Let's call her "Henry"

...What the fuck have I been missing? I go off to preach about the Church of the Bug Cyborg and someone's been raised by vampire people?

It's probably the teeth thing.A lot of people don't show their teeth when they smile, especially if more reserved by nature (or simply reserved when on the spot, or feel as if they're imposing too much).Like most of the time when I smile I don't show my teeth, you have to be making me laugh for my teeth to show (Or I'm purposely making a very creepy/disturbing smile).And being raised around odd people such as "vampire people" tends to produce odd people.And if showing teeth was something she learned culturally to associate with a negative, it's no surprise that she's reluctant to show it. Or associate it with something positive.Though, I'm simply trying to find a rational/explanation for Henry's reasoning here. I fully admit Henry's off, and therefore no defense I can give is bound to make perfect sense. Except to Henry maybe.

Except the weirdest part is that, despite this argument, she still does show her teeth... sort of. But, like, only the top row. Really it just looks like she's raising her upper lip.

So I don't even know why she's presenting such an argument as if that's the problem here, which it's not. @_@

If you've read as far as Henry's smile and all of Gwazi's responses then I don't see how you missed the thing I mentioned about the "vampire people".

Then my best guess would be that she's bluffing (consciously or not) and there's something else at play.
That, or maybe the top lip raising like her smiling is unconscious and she doesn't realize she's doing it.

Nah, skimmed it, busy with other things. I'll read it fully when I have free time, but for now, procrastination being busy awaits.
