so about those physical changes
we all know they're a thing and they said something about this being some crap with souls and yadda yadda
but how can you tell for sure a change is retrospec's bullshit?
i'm not talking about your eyes turning pink overnight or growing a third arm or cat ears or what have you
i mean more like... when you wake up and discover a tattoo or two on you that sure as hell weren't there yesterday
and a piercing too
how do you know this is caused by retrospec and not because you got wasted last night and might have done some dumb shit on the way home (that you don't exactly remember anyway)?

metaphorically speaking ofc

...i'm gonna take that as a sign last night wasn't as bad as i thought
not that it makes me feel much better but it's something

or its a sign last night wasnt as good as it could have been
depends on how you look at it!

if you consider getting shitfaced and waking up with tattoos and piercings a "good night" then i don't wanna know what a "bad night" is like for you

girls like those kinds of things!
never gotten any myself
tattoos and piercings i mean

seriously??
never thought about it that way

[He may be a little intrigued (and slightly less miserable) now.]

yeah!
next time you meet a girl whip it out
the tats and the piercings i mean

bad idea
trust me
that would only make things worse

[He may not be an expert, but even he has enough common sense to know dropping his pants in front of a newly met girl is not a way to her heart.]

reeeally

i wanna see

I AM NOT SENDING YOU NUDES

???

its not like its gonna do anything for me

[That's comforting, right?]

ARE YOU SERIOUS
THAT'S NOT THE POINT

[That part's like, maybe 10% of the total of reasons why he'd never do that.]

and no you're still not getting any

oh jeez
girls like confidence you know

but i guess being shy like this could work too

[Shy. Not 'normal'. Just shy.]

I'M NOT SHY

["Reasonable". That's the word she's looking for.]

sides i thought girls also like not getting random dick pics from guys they barely know

[So he may have accidentally revealed the more problematic location of his tattoo just now, but... he does have a point.]

oh
is that true?
i just laugh when i get them
guys dont seem to like that but w/e
i guess girls do get upset when i forward them???

[... ... ...]

wait
omigosh is that where it is???
you must have partied real hard

[He doesn't even know where to start with this, nor which part is the worst. Her getting random dick pics? Laughing at them? Forwarding them to other girls??

Wait, forget that. The last part of her message is The Actual Worst.]

what
NO
i mean
it's just
an example?

[Like anyone would believe that.]
