We Are the Crystal Gems

@Loony All I can think of is... this.

We Are the Crystal Gems

@Akayaofthemoon And I am basically that, but probably a lot more subtle about it.

We Are the Crystal Gems

@Loony I won't, promise!

We Are the Crystal Gems

@Loony Well, it's hard for me not to worry just a little bit ^^" Don't mind me though, playing mother hen is something I kind of just kind of do.

We Are the Crystal Gems

@Loony Ah. Well if that's their situation I guess it can't be helped. It's too bad but the last thing anyone wants is for Nous to try to commit when they have too much else going on so yeah.

Haha I know but I feel like you deserve someone to talk to since I know you can't always be on that often.

We Are the Crystal Gems

@Loony Yeah, me too, thanks.

And also yay, that obviously isn't news to me but I'm super excited for all things Gypsum related! I'm sure everyone will welcome Nous back if he wants to give this a try, and it's not really like we're in much of a place to say no to new people.

Also I'm sorry I keep semi-abandoning you, I keep going half-asleep for some reason.

@Loony I'm glad that your sister is nice about eating your food at least. The situation with your dad sounds kind of weird though, like he'll eat anything you make as long as it's the first time you've made that dish and then refuse to have it ever again?

Ha well I guess whether or not I should dread it depends a lot on whether or not I actually manage to get the job I'll need. I'm really looking forward to earning something like a decent income at some point but yeah, I know a thing or two about being anxious about it myself.

@Loony And you just watched them eat it? XD I used to be pretty great at making fried eggs, which a friend of mine would insist I do for them. I have a little sister who likes my cooking a lot too, I find that cooking for younger siblings is pretty nice as opposed to cooking for parents who often harp on the little details instead of just letting you make the dish they way you make it.

I know a thing or two about snapping mothers too, my mom can get pretty awful about it sometimes. And yeah college is a big part of why I can't get better stuff, mostly I just can't afford it. I don't know if I'm looking forward to getting out so I can finally get a job and start paying 200$ a month on my loans or dreading it.

@Loony In some ways I kind of envy you, pretty much the only foods I have access to are snacks. For some reason the idea of your friend just eating a whole pot of lentil soup is really funny to me. Cooking for friends is kind of hilarious in general though. Anyways yeah, it really puts my mind at ease to hear that you're trying to eat even if you don't want to. The alternative is something I strongly don't recommend.

@Loony I'm glad you're eating healthy but it sounds like that diet might possibly be deficient in things you need. It's very good that you're eating at all though, and I totally understand. I've been in states where I hated the sight of food, it was quite bad. I hope the kale chips turn out well for you.
