[quote=@Joshie]So... how IS the school life going? I mean, here you are with this giant doom cloud over your head and you are surrounded by teenagers who live as if the whole world is ahead of them. Dates. Movies. Careers. They take them all for granted. I mean, you want to kiss someone now, yet you see shy Wall flowers who put this off because they have 'all the time in the world'. How does this make you feel? How are you coping with this? And how is the life of 'Doktor Faust' working out for you? Any complications or hangups that you've been experiencing (besides the obvious mental and psycological taking over part, that is)?[/quote] It sucks. Why do you think I told a complete stranger with no powers whatsoever about my doom? Clearly I have something wrong with me, other than...nah, it's actually fine. I'm good. Sure, I don't have as long as everyone else, but that means I also have less time to be mad at them, or jealous, or whatever. They're not really worth all the negative stuff. As long as I keep them safe, I don't care how they deal with their problems. Kisses are just one of those things I'll have to deal with not getting as much of as them. If I manage it, great. If I don't...well, my world's going to end anyway. It's really not that bad anymore. More mad at my idiot family than them. I can deal with it much better now that I'm living with someone else's family and get all their happiness and drama instead of this "super duper evil thing is going to take over and do all the bad things" crap. As for the Doktor Faust side, not so many problems, no. Haven't had any hints of Mephistopheles' influence for a while, which is kind of dishearteningly calming. Just have to be careful with my powers and not hurt anyone, and I'm good most of the time. I'm not going to let the looming threat of literally losing my mind take over.
