Honestly not that social.
Or even agreeable
Or online much
Just feel like somehow the world has moved on and I haven't.
Just feel lonely.

I thought Mahz and Lilian were the only mods?
Anyone planning on piloting Aza's character now he's gone or what's exactly going to happen with that?
We kind of have a NPC in charge of negotiations right now lol

Oh no, it would be terrible if I simply acted as 'myself'.
But which is better - to be born good or overcome your evil nature through great effort?
Anyways, that's enough wasted words. I've indulged too much in my craving to ramble, I shall be off.

That's part of the problem I guess. I'm really not that pleasant of a guy to be honest. I can be one if I try but it's a constant effort. It's doesn't feel or come naturally to me usually.
It's gets pretty exasperating sometimes, that's all.

"Of course!" Lyall said with enthusiasm that betrayed his youth and inexperience. Truth was that he felt like his nerves would burst into flames if they were restrained a second longer. He felt like he had chains on his arms that were begging to be unlocked. He yearned for his adventure to begin already, and after smiling back at Lillith, bravely stepped into the woods as if his skin itself was made out of chain mail. He was determined to take the lead in this exploration despite his utter lack of experience compared to Lillith. Truthfully however, if he were thinking, he should of let Lillith go first since she certainly had much more protection with the potion effects but his egotism took over where experience should of.
He had no idea what to suspect in the woods and while he walked with a carefree demeanor, his hand firmly grasped the hilt of his sword with such force that his knuckles were turning white.

Not really, I'm always pretty busy IRL so I've gotten pretty used to it ^^;
I just sometimes wonder if I belong on this forum. I mean, honestly, I can put on my best social etiquette, but sometimes I just feel out of place among everyone on here. Like a bull in a china shop or a snowman in the middle of summer. Everyone is just too.... I don't know. Or rather I'm just too eh. It's hard for me to relate to you guys sometimes, that's it.

Feel free to ignore my advice since I'm just an angsty Athiest and stuff but honestly why don't you just go for it? Teaching sucks, ditch that shit. Simple as that. Maybe you'll discover Marine Biology sucks also, or maybe it'll be the greatest thing since sliced bread. Maybe you just need to go to another school, try to find a job in a small town school where you can bond with the students better.
Seriously, what's stopping you from following your dreams? Money? That just means your going to have to work your ass off outside classes to pay for them/learn to love ramen. Parent disapproval? Is it your parent's life or your life? If you hate the way teaching is going for you and you cry every night, obviously their approval isn't doing much anyways. The amount of effort it'll take? If having a fulfilling life was easy, everybody would be doing it. There is a reason Thomas Jefferson said the 'pursuit of happiness'. You're waiting for God to step in and magically show you how to live happily ever after? Well you're going to be waiting for a long time I guess while others take chances and, I dunno, actually live life? If your unhappy with your life, don't wait for God, just do it yourself. Maybe at the end if the road you'll go back to teaching, shit who knows what can happen. But the way it sounds is that your not exactly living it up right now so why not make a few dumb decisions?
That's just my two cents. I just hate when people rely so much on others/God/etc. to pick them up when their life is shambles. If you have two perfectly good legs to stand on, walk. Don't just waste away slowly in hopes that somebody/something is gonna come by and carry you.

As the Princess laughed at his flowery introduction, Richelieu kept his cards close to his chest and revealed no emotions that would indicate if he was flustered or even fazed at all. He had plenty of experience in dealing with those stationed above him, and while being ridiculed was never pleasant, it was simply a part of social politics. He could only hope that Garren kept his head and didn't take personal offense to the Princess’s jabs.
The Princess had put him and Garren in a rather awkward situation, but it was clear that at least one of them should go with the Princess. While Richelieu felt uneasy leaving Garren alone with Queen Alexandria and the Queen of the Amazons, he had a gut feeling that he should follow the Princess. Richelieu considered himself to be a disciplined young man, but the seductive charms of the Princess combined with the allure of danger associated with the tall woman was too much to bear.
“My apologies, I didn't mean to offend anyone by ‘speaking above my station’.” Richelieu cooed warmly as he slowly stood up from his chair. “I seem to have mistakenly thought that my status as a diplomat was enough to warrant my, and my companion’s right, to speak at the table. I shall be off to discuss matters of agitation with the Princess and I’ll leave Garren here to continue the meeting proceedings. “
Richelieu said all of this in a calm manner that did not betray whether if his apology was a sincere one or a less than subtle jab at the previously displayed table manners. With a pleasant smile, Richelieu exited the area and followed the Princess to her personal tent. She had managed to get ahead by quite a distance in the short time that it took Richelieu to excuse himself from the table but he was able to find her with minimal difficulties. If he had stayed to question the Queen, it would have most likely been an entirely different story. When he finally reached the tent that he saw the young woman dart into, he stood outside briefly to question his previous logic of leaving the matters of the meeting to Garren.
Richelieu took a leap of faith however and decided that Garren seemed trustworthy enough to be entrusted with such matters. Now it was time for another leap of faith. After taking a deep breath, Richelieu stepped slowly yet assuredly into the tent with the Princess and closed the tent flap behind so that he was alone with her. “Now that we are alone, may we discuss what could not be spoken aloud at the table?”
