understanding etymology and root words <3

Penelope: Would I fall in love with you again? Hmmm, well. Can you also move our marriage bed over there? Hmmm? What? I thought we were pretending to be stupid by asking the most idiotic questions.

I spent like two hours in the waiting room reading TSH and like... I love them. All. Bunny, Henry... Richard is so fucking stupid, I love him, too. The twins just spewing out those lies they concocted probably in the dead of night in hushed whispers... Francis just being Francis and his stupid apartment-- but Bunny.

Honestly, mischaracterisation is one of the bsd fandom’s biggest issues but I’m not getting into all that right now.
