I'd just like to say something, and I promise it's not about mind control, hallucinogens, or everyday objects sprouting extra heads.

I don't 'talk funny'!

This is how everyone sounds where I'm from, all right?

Is this an accent thing? Who's been saying that to you?

[ told you you were an easy target???? ]

[professahhh]

Americans, mostly.

[esperimental]

That's dreadfully rude.

[professahhh]

Of course it is! That's why I'm going on about it on the internet!

[esperimental]

I mean, if it's just one person, don't let it get to you

or were they really loud and annoying.

[professahhh]

I thought I might as well get the drop on the next time.

[esperimental]

A decent plan but also some ignoramuses just aren't worth correcting the gentle way.

[professahhh]

I hope you're not suggesting getting into a scuffle.

[esperimental]

No, that's stupid.

Instead don't give them the pleasure of even acknowledging their existence.

[professahhh]

You're recommending ignoring them?

[esperimental]

I mean some idiots learn better eventually. Most idiots stay idiots.

[madcuriosity]

Where is it you're from?

[professahhh]

Most recently, London!

[beastenderblood]

Maybe learn english

[professahhh]

What is it that you think we're writing in?

[beastenderblood]

Some kind goobity-gook, I'm not sure

[professahhh]

I'm not sure what to say to that.

[legne]

Is some putrid little demon taking issue with the way you talk, child?

You must not allow them. It is very important to be able to express oneself how one chooses!

[professahhh]

I completely agree! And at least I know how to spell!

[legne]

And they cannot even spell their objections correctly, you say?

Take no heed of their garbled gibberings! They are merely envious of your potential as a promising young warlock.

[professahhh]

A w-warlock?

...Hey! Not that sort of spelling! I meant the kind with words. Non-magic words, that is. Thank you for the sentiment, though.

Honestly, I don't see what the fuss is all about. It's not as though no one can understand me.

Some fiends are only deaf to what they choose not to hear, whether that be awkward truths or powerful spells. Regardless of your aptitude for magic, you must continue to hold your head high!
