EclairReturns 10/21/19 2:41:09 AM #1:	He's on the spectrum, but I do wish he would think about what to say before asking me stuff that might offend me. Afterwards I yelled at him why he was asking me this, and that he was annoying me. He then changed the subject to my progress on Crash Bandicoot because he saw how mad I got. Now I'm depressed, agitated, and I won't sleep well tonight, I am certain. And it's not because of a twenty-year-old video game, for you lot who enjoy ridiculing me. --- Number XII: Larxene.

argonautweakend 10/21/19 10:05:17 AM #18:	Tons of people get degrees and never use them. Maybe the brother is unaware at eclaires attempts to get a job(If there are any). If he has autism he might not have good self awareness. Though i don't know. Eclairs seems to have issues of his own but i feel people are being a tad too hard on him. But ehhh idk. I dropped out of college with a GPA in the 2s because im lazy and a procrastinator.
