tags: hate, unreasoning



What do you do when you feel hate against you for no reason at all? When someone just feels wrathful, red evil anger, vicious intentions towards you and you can't gauge why that would be or any way around it, or any solution to it aside from a full ...

Driftin'

Banes at 12:00AM, May 23, 2024



One story structure, that ozoneocean and I talked about many years ago on the Quackcast, was the Lone Protagonist as drifter.
