just wanted to tell you i thought of a quote for Stringsnipper and it goes hard

Oooohh

"Lian, if you enter that dimension, you should know that time, space, and reality work differently there. Some get lost. Some go mad. Some find the one thing they yearn for and never return. Pass through it as swiftly as possible. Keep your will and wits about you and stick to the chosen path. The final stop of your journey will be on the other side."

That is so cool
Who is saying this???

some goofball scientist guy in Acre who teleports you to Puppet Palace in Chapter 8

Ah

i'm glad you like the quote :]

Ngl this is Milk level writing
Not saying he's a better writer than you but his stuff has a certain vibe yk

i get what you're saying

putting me in the middle is the best decision

Silly→Half Silly→the darkest stuff you could think of

i feel like i'm good at writing feelsy stuff

I'm good at writing comical stuff

same

Humorous→Humorous and Deep→very deep

awwww you think my writing's deep?? 🥹🥹

Yes

"time to go crystallize some nerds" 🔥🔥

"what's a zip bomb??" 🗣️🗣️

*I'll try*
"Hey guys. This is Lian."

"H-hi, everybody..."

*they chuckled amongst themselves*

"Wh-what...? Wh-why are you laughing...?"

Guy 1: "..heh.. nothin'.."

(Slightly awkwardly) "...okay..."

*help I don't know how to be mean to him like actually*

[do you wanna be Lian or something]

*yes please*

[alright, can you also be Tristan or do you want me to take over as him as well?]

*can you please be both I'm sorry I'm just bad at being a jerk*

[alright that's fine]
Guy 2: "So, why'd you bring HIM?"
Tristan: "Because my mom's f**kin' stupid!!"

"..h-huh..?"

Tristan: "My mom thinks you're one of my... *gag* friends. Why would I be friends with a [SLUR] like you?!"

"..*sniff*..."

Guy 3: "...dude, that was a little harsh..."

*he looked at Guy 3 and almost smiled*

Guy 3: "And you probably shouldn't say that word, man... it's disrespectful, you know."

*he wiped the tears out of his eyes and smiled at Guy 3*
".. th-thanks.."

Guy 3: "No problem... Lian, was it?"

"...mhmm.."

(Guy 3 slips Lian a piece of paper with his phone number on it.)
"Hold on to this, little guy."

*he pockets this*
"..thank you.."

Tristan: "Hey, wait, what's goin' on here?"

".. n-nothing.."

(He looks at Lian threateningly.)

*he whimpers quietly out of fear*

[NOOOO POOR LIAN]
(Tristan directs his attention to his friends.)
"Anyway, I'm supposed to be writing a 5000 word essay for some stupid class, but I'll probably just come up with an excuse. I don't give enough of a f**k today."

*he shook a bit*

(Guy 2 looks at Lian.)
Guy 2: "You got any ideas for what to do today?"

"..n-no.."

Tristan: "We probably wouldn't have done it anyway."

*he looked a bit ashamed for just being there*

[THE POOR BOYYYYYYY]
Guy 1: "So is he, like, your little brother?"
Tristan: "GOD no."

*he stayed silent*

(Cory just so happens to walk by.)
[Cory goes to the same school as Lian btw]

*I don't know anything about Cory :(*

[i'm being Cory dw]
Cory: "Oh hey Lian! And... w-wait, TRISTAN?!"

*He turned to look at Cory and gave a face of discomfort and urgency*

"...? Oh, I... I see what's going on."

*He then turn around to look at the group and pretended everything was alright*

"...sorry Lian, there's nothing I can do..."

*he felt hopeless hearing this and you could see it*
*Suddenly, Cory's phone rings*

"Hm?"
(He answers it.)

*it's Mr.*
"CORY HAVE YOU SEEN TRISTAN OR LIAN"

"Oh, uhh... about that... I'm right here with them."

"WHERE ARE YOU I NEED TO GET HIM OUT OF THERE
HE CALLED ME AND WANTED ME TO PICK HIM UP"

"Uhh... right here at [STREET NAME]."

"I'M ON MY WAY
IF YOU NEED A RIDE TOO I CAN GIVE YOU ONE
IF THEY MOVE I NEED YOU TO TELL ME"

"O-okay, okay, calm down!"

"I CAN'T JUST BE CALM, CORY. THIS IS URGENT. THERE'S NO PLACE HE'D BE WORSE OFF IN."

"Okay, I'm sorry!"
(Cory overhears Tristan for a second.)
"Jeez, I didn't know Tristan used so many slurs..."

"...
GODD*** RED LIGHT"

"Ch-chill out! Please!"

"..."

[timeskip to when Mr arrives?]

"IM ABOUT TO PULL UP, DO YOU NEED A RIDE?"

"Uh, sure. I don't really have anything else to do or anywhere else to go."

"ALRIGHT."
*he pulled up moments later, and without saying anything to anyone, punched Tristan in the face, grabbed Lian and Cory, put them in the car and drove off*

(Lian is a complete nervous wreck.)

"I'm so sorry it took me so long to find you, Lian. Are you alright?"

"...I- I..."

"..I'm sorry that happened..."

(He breaks down crying.)

*he pulls over and hugs Lian*

"Th-that was so scary..."

"I'm so so so sorry..."

"...I- I made a new friend though!"

"..y-you did?"

"Y-yep!"

.

"Who?"

"Well, I don't know his name yet... but he stood up for me!"

"Oh. Well, that's fantastic!"

"...today wasn't all bad..."

"..good."

"...it was still scary though... Tristan is scary..."

".. I'm sorry.."

"H-he called me a [SLUR]... a-and a [OTHER SLUR]..."

*his face turned into a scribble*

"A-and he said I was a dumbass geek for liking Mario... a-and he said I should just [[NOW!]]... *sniff*"

*he backed away and began twitching similarly to a glitching robot and made many unintelligible but angry sounds*

"...Mr...?"

"GRRAAHHH THAT LITTLE*UNINTELLIGIBLE*ILL KILL HIM"

"C-CALM DOWN-!"

"THIS IS INJUSTICE WHAT HE'S DONE TO YOU IT WONT STAND IT WONT GO"

"...m-maybe he's right."

"NONONONONONO DONT YOU SAY THAT DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT HE'S WRONG HES WRONG HES WRONG"

"I- I'll ask Mom when I get home."

"AND DO YOU THINK SHE'LL TELL YOU THE BULLY WAS RIGHT??"

(He seems suddenly distracted by something.)
"Y-yeah, you're right, Tristan's wrong, but... l-look at the sunset. It's so beautiful..."
(The sun is setting and it's GORGEOUS. The sky is a deep, lovely orange.)

Also imgflip.com/i/8bq2nd

*Mr swivels his head to look and immediately calms down*
"..yeah.."

"This world is so beautiful... life is such a wonderful thing... I'd never cut mine short."

*he looks back at Lian, then hugs him*
".. exactly..
..you know, it scares me really bad whenever you say something like that.. I just don't show it well.."

(He suddenly gives Mr a tight hug.)

*he hugs back*
"..i-i just don't wanna lose you..
..but hearing you say that.. it makes me feel a lot better.."

"You're not losing me any time soon."

"..g-good."

(He looks at the gorgeous sunset, and then back at Mr.)
"...do you think everybody can be a good person if they really give it their best shot...?"

"..I think there's good in everyone. Some people don't try to put their good out, but it's in them somewhere."

"...d-do you think Tristan could change?"

"..if he tries, I bet he could. He isn't trying right now, but that's going to change someday."

"...do you think he'll ever accept me? My orientation? My beliefs? M-my... my gender?"

"..only time will tell."

"...are there more people like him?"

"..sadly, yes. But the trick is to ignore them."

"...what if I can't ignore them...?"

"..then I'll make them leave you alone. You'll always have me."

(He starts sniffling.)

"..no, Lian, please don't cry.."
*He hugged Lian*

"Th-they're happy tears..."

"..awww.."

(He starts bawling. Happy tears, of course.)

*he sniffs a bit*

(The sun has now fully set.)

".. would you look at that."

"...hm?"

"sun's down."

(The night sky is BEAUTIFUL, too. Just as stunning as the sunset.)

".you can see all the stars so clearly.."

"...w-woah..."

.

"..do you know the constellations, Lian?"

"I- I always forget them..."

*he began pointing out all the constellations and telling their stories*

(He listens, completely mesmerized.)

"..that one's pegasus. It's pretty much a unicorn. That's it's horn."

"Huh... I can see it, actually. That's neat!"

"Mhm. That one's a man named Orion. There's his belt and his body."

[Tristan got an official design btw woooooooo]
"...I don't know if you knew this about me... but I actually really love space and stuff like that."

*oooh can I see*
"..you do..? I like it too.. it's so fascinating and peaceful."

[design in the image]
"...it's so vast... there's so much yet so little out there..."

Who let this kid smoke
"..yep."

[himself]
"...my older brother got me into space and stuff... it's just so cool..."

*coz he's to swiggedy swag HOW OLD EVEN IS HE*
".. sometimes I like to ponder it. Think about things."

[about 17]
"...this planet feels so massive... yet it's only a little speck in this huge, huge universe..."

*dang does his parents know*
"Really messes with your sense of perspective, huh?"

[they do and they ask him to stop]
"Yeah... it's crazy, isn't it?"

*yeah fine mom I'll stop (turns a corner and pulls out another cigarette)*
"..it sure is."

"...oh [[SHOOT]], it's 8:30! I've gotta get home!"

"..Oh, alright."
*He let Lian in the car and got in*
"Cory, you alright back there?"

(Cory's asleep.)

"..heh.."
*He begins driving to Lian's house*

Lian: "...did you have a good day?"

"..I did good today..so I sure did."

"...I did too."

"..good."

"...thanks for saving me..."

".. anytime."

"...could we grab some food on the way home...?"

"..sure. where to?"

"...what about [that place the Funnyguys ate at earlier in our memechat RP]?"

"Sure."

"Thanks..."

"No problem, buddy."

"...you're my absolute best friend in the world."
(Lian has never said anything to THIS effect. It catches Mr slightly off-guard.)

"..??
..you.. you really mean it..?"

"I... I really mean it."

"...awww.. thank you so much.."

"...you're literally the best."

*he smiled*
