Mmm. I wanted to see more of Filament. o wo

 

[Rednal]

More of everyone is good. = w= b

...

Now, what could I do around here?  

[Zorc James]

I dunno.  

[stickdude]

Aselia? o wo

 

[Rednal]

So Soma's a kiredere? That's a new phrase... o wo *Scribbles down*  

[Zorc James]

der...  

[stickdude]

Explanation? o wo

 

[Rednal]

"Snapping Lovey-Type", apparently, where she's cruel but also caring. Or something. ^^  

[stickdude]

You mean like how I picture Sadie? o wo

 

[Rednal]

No, that's just plain sadistic and self-centered. XD



This sounds more like... "I'm being tough on you and maybe even hurting you, but only because it's for your own good and because I care". And not as an excuse to be sadistic, either. Sadists do it because it makes them feel good, while these types apparently do it because they care about the welfare of other person.

Think, I dunno, a really harsh coach for a sports team. He cares about the players, and because he cares, he puts them through his toughest regime.  

[Zorc James]

I really do wanna know how to gain patience.

Red, that is called Good-Black-Parent's-Love.  

[stickdude]

That's a general description, right? I'm not sure if that quite sounds like Soma...

 

[Rednal]

@Zorc: Play more video games. You learn lots of patience while waiting for games to come out.

@Stick: Well, Soma's pretty harsh to Finnel at times... but also cares quite a lot. ^^ I think that's about right, actually. I mean, let's not forget that Soma is the Goddess of Natural Selection. "Tough, but only to make you stronger" sounds pretty much dead-on to me for someone whose entire existence is about promoting Darwinism...  

[stickdude]

I guess it was just the way you worded it. o wo
