babes, you’re eerie-sistible
List of “you’re still in love with them, aren’t you?” prompts
“Be honest. I’m not the one you want to grow old with, right?”
“I don’t think I can ever experience love like I’ve experienced it with you.”
“You really were my everything, and what’s worse is you’ll always be; even if being with you hurt me.”
“Why don’t you go back to them? Because clearly I’m not the one you want.”
“Are you sure you’re over them?” (Bonus: “I… I thought I was.” Or make it worse. Have the response be just this: “I… I’m sorry.”)
“I don’t want to be your fallback. I don’t want to be a backup; your rebound.” “But you’re not—” “But I am.”
“Maybe not thinking about them when you’re with me would be a very good start.”
“I’m not your person and that’s okay. You just need to stop lying to yourself.”
“Convincing yourself you aren’t into them anymore in that way makes it the more obvious that you clearly still are into them… Because why would you need to convince yourself if you already do believe it?”
“We’re through. There, I said it for you. I did the hard part for you. I’m not the one you want. And I want someone who wants me, not their ex.”

I like to think that Arbok's hood patterns are influenced by their environment. When they evolve, they can take on the markings of their parent, or maybe they take after the trainer who raised them (who may or may not have an intimidating look to them)
99% of "mysterious disappearances" esp of people in their 20s who start acting weird for 48 hours and then vanish are not mysterious, thats just when a lot of reality-obliterating mental illness tends to kick in and it's pretty easy to get a short circuit in your brain that makes you go family guy death pose in joshua tree national park. it's not any less tragic, it's just a documented phenomenon and not particularly predictable. its a big reason the medical advice is for people with a family history of schizophrenia to completely avoid weed and psychedelics. "people just go crazy sometimes" is a principle of human health that used to be a lot more accepted prior to the american midcentury and to a certain extent thats a healthier way to conceptualize and prepare for the risk, as opposed to the modern assertion that anyone acting weird is dangerous and broken forever.
