[Idly dictated into the journal,]
It never ceases to amaze me with what people get to write, and what gets made into books. Some things just seem downright treasonous, but they still get bound, and bought, and read by lots of people.
I'm a little jealous to be frank. At home it could be pretty tough to get hold of books and things. Some of my friends couldn't even read so having books would have been moot.
[Rin is in the library today, which is not very surprising: the library is a good place to try and find her. Tad the Arcanine is hanging around lolling under tables and in front of chairs as she reads. Just now, she seems to be slipping a book into her carryall: the curious might get enough of a glimpse to see that she's making off with The Anarchist's Cookbook.
Open, of course.]

Oh...? You caught on after all, huh. [Paradisa's most adorable troll: Rin Asano.]

In his mind he's thinking he feels like he's pretty fucking stupid in the sense he fucks up all the damn time.
Naturally though that isn't what he's going to say.]
Wwell I'm smarter than you humans for a start.
Plus I'm pretty fuckin' amazin' in regards to troll intelligence standards too so pretty fuckin' intelligent.
no subject
... Right?]
Well, you can read. That's better than I expected I guess.

Though his eye might twitch a little in response.]

Oh, so relatively calm.]
Yep. Big fuckin' deal, I impressed the human girl.
Not like that's much of an achievvement.
no subject
What are you reading?
no subject
[Closing it, then flipping it around to show the cover.]
It's a book on political intrigue an' military conquests a this earth roman empire.
I'm pretty much done wwith evvery alternian document they got here regardin' that kinda stuff so I'm movvin' onto the ones about other cultures.

what's her game now.........]
It's better than makin' convversation wwith people around here.
Military history is fuckin' awwesome. Evven the primitivve means a wwar earth has are a thousand times better than puttin' up wwith all a' these borin' fuckers.
All this evveryday convversation bullshit makes me wwant to tear my eyes out. It's the same fuckin' thing ovver an' ovver an' holds little vvalue in the long run.
no subject
But you're talking to me right now... maybe if you got better at making conversation it wouldn't be so terrible anyway.
no subject
Hey, I am fuckin' fantastic at convversin' wwith people.
Unless you're sayin' I'm not, in wwhich case I ask wwhy you're still talkin' to me in the first place.
no subject
Anyway she's moving on from that pretty much quick anyway. Rin raises her hands to the joint of her jaw, about the equivalent point on Eridan's face where his gills grow, and rests three fingers, not her pinkie and thumb, against both sides of her face.]
Hey, how come you have fronds growing on your face?

What have you got gills for, fishface?
no subject
I can livve underwwater an' on land, unlike most trolls wwho are stuck breathin' air for their entire cycles.
But I'm not a fish, I'm a troll.
[so it's his trollface, clearly]

[Putting the book down because clearly someone needs to be schooled on troll biology.]
Wwe start off as larvva, an' make a cocoon after wwe hatch. Then once it pupates wwe come out wwith limbs. Sea dwwellers are distinct from all the others cause wwe have gills an' purple blood.
Rulin' class an' all that.
But wwe don't become butterflies or somethin' stupid like that. If you'vve met Ara or Vvrisk, they're exceptions wwith their stupid fluttery wwings.

Just superior genetics really. Sucks for the others hatched wwithout them.

Then there's the matter a sea dwwellers bein' amphibious wwhich is one a' the most distinct advvantages evver an' the fact you couldn't tell is actually shockin'.
An' finally I'm a descendant a' one a' the most feared and respected trolls evver, legendary for his many conquests an' ruthless killin' a' all the lowwerbloods wwho dared rise up against the empress.
He orphaned so many trolls he became feared for bein' knowwn as the orphaner.
So I havve a lot backin' me up here.
