different from anything that came before or after. Like a sleepy hill giant,
waking after resting for multiple millenia, our little worlds were blossoming
with life in the new spring.

awkward bumbling adolescent (perhaps not much worse than the fellow I am today,
but let's leave these derivatives for time to take). I had a different
adolescence compared to most of my peers. My father seeded the initial ground with
his strict material rules. Later, this diffrentiation was carried out with
varying levels of enthusiasm by myself and the fellows I began to associate with.
It's a good moment to remark that I never did consider myself much of a ladies
man, much to the consternation of those macho childhood friends who mocked but
secretly desired for me to convert a few points for the team.
