okay so i have some questions for the general public
which is you guys

first: if you sent someone to jail on their birthday but they probably forgave you should you be worried that they or a family member is gonna
i don't know
come after you
or something like that
not that it happened
but hypothetically i guess

second: anyone have any thoughts on being called "puppy"?
is it a compliment?
an insult?
i kind of need some outside opinions here

uhhh
yeah that's it
thanks

what the fuck is this

i apologize i have no advice or experience concerning your first question.

your second inquiry, however! i think it would be a term of endearment. puppies are cute and loyal, beacons of warmth and excitement. it should be considered a compliment, i believe.

a pet name, rather. (that's kind of a joke ! ) U^ｪ^U

[grilletto]

yeah okay that's fine if that's what you want to be though
you know?
like...puppies seem kind of lame
especially when you could be something cooler
or stronger but it kind of feels like it's worse being called one??

...Wouldn't be called a puppy be similar to being called a baby?

[grilletto]

fuck! finally someone gets it!
thank you!
that's exactly what i mean
kind of makes me feel like a kid when someone calls me a puppy

[ She would honestly not be surprised to find out who posted this, but there's something about how... Honestly, it's just kinda sad? So. ]

That is such a highly specific situation where if someone knows this about you, they're gonna know it's you.
But to answer your question, I guess it depends on the kind of person they are?
If they're here, maybe ask them about it. Easier than worrying all the time.

Kind of a weird thing to call someone (assuming it's more than just once?).
I compare my partner to a dog because he's loyal, dependable, and cute. I don't think it's bad.
Kind of subjective.

[grilletto]

[ what's sad is that he asked it in the first place tbh ]

hey it's specific but like i said it's hypothetical
it didn't happen
but say that things seem normal and are going pretty good and then you have to tell someone else what happened
like how do you deal with that when you're pretty sure the other end of the phone is on fire or something

yeah okay that's kind of a good example with your partner
i mean i guess it would be okay if i were a kid or something or if it was a joke
but when you're super close to someone and an adult it's kind of questionable i guess
question: would you call your partner a dog in public?

'Puppy'? Is that in the context of the Sanguis blessing?

[Why...is she even asking...???]

[grilletto]

yeah that's it exactly
except it's not just during that time
so that's why i wanted to ask

If they 'probably' forgave you then you're 'probably' fine.

On the other hand, maybe you should watch out around YOUR birthday.

[grilletto]

okay so here's the thing
my last birthday was fine
do you think someone would really wait a year and a half to destroy me?
i wouldn't be surprised but it seems kind of questionable

Did they deserve to go to jail?

I think it is supposed to be a term of endearment, depending how it is said.

[grilletto]

when it happened i thought so
but now i'm pretty sure they should't have ended up there
mostly sure
in my defense i thought she was witch that put a curse on me
so i think that kind of made me make a few bad decisions

i think she means it as endearment or something
but sometimes it's almost like i'm being made fun of??
you get that, right?

[hopticulture]

Puppy sounds pretty insulting if you ask me. Like whoever says it is babying you.

But maybe it's different for humans.

For the jail thing, I know if I was capable of being threatening I'd come after the person who sent someone I cared about to jail on their birthday.

1/2

[grilletto]

nah i don't think it's different for humans
i mean it still means the same thing if you're not, right?

when you put it like that though
i guess i can see what you mean
what if it was someone that you were related to?
the same thing?

[grilletto]

wait
what do you mean
different for humans
are you not one??

text, un: mafuyu

[restringing]

People say I'm like a puppy too
But it could mean different things

You could be loud and exited like a puppy
Or have puppy dog eyes when you're sad
Or lick people

[grilletto]

dude are you trying to tell me that you lick people?

text; un: no

[terribletwos]

why did you send them to jail in the first place/

[grilletto]

if i tell you i'll out myself
but let's say
there was a fight and someone threw some food

text, un: rosaceae

[roseblooms]

First: assuredly yes.

Second: I personally would find it insulting, but I suppose I'm more than a little biased in that respect. I would say it's generally a term of endearment, though something of a patronizing one.

[grilletto]

okay first: how worried do you think i need to be?

second: thank you that's definitely the word i was trying to come up with
patronising!
are you a dog person? is that why it would be insulting?

[suspecteverything]

Depends on the family really. Some families are full of assholes and amazing and holding grudges and getting revenge, sometimes in the most bloodthirsty of ways. Other families are normal.

[Not that he has any experience with that.]

[grilletto]

this family is kind of normal i guess?
i wouldn't say they're known for revenge
but they do know how to fight
shit
maybe that does mean they'd be good at revenge
but why wait, you know?
if you're gonna do something to someone just do it right away
that way they know what they did in the first place

[machiavel]

Puppy is an insult, but they were probably hoping you didn’t catch on.

SEIMEI NO

[grilletto]

huh?
seriously?
i'm not sure...i don't think she meant it like that or anything
i mean
i'm pretty sure?

text, un: KUWABARA

[machizumo]

If they don't have a problem they should tell their family to back off and let em speak for themself. Revenge for someone else's sake is dumb if they wouldn't want to follow through with it.

and being called a puppy is weird. what the fuck?

[grilletto]

yeah! see it’s like
it’s not out of line for me to ask for a good word to be put in, right?
he’s got to listen if she says don’t hurt the guy

i knew some other people would agree
being called cute or puppy is just weird
like i feel like a pretty cool guy and it’s just
i don’t want to say demeaning or anything like that
but lame i guess

[swaylay]

I'd probably come after you if you tried to pass a night in confinement as a birthday gift. Hypothetically.

[grilletto]

wait wait
don’t make it sound like it was planned!
i didn’t jump out of the shadows and yell happy birthday you’re going to jail??
it’s a thing that happened to happen on her birthday
