I think the funniest thing is her diction. Like that shit sticks with you.
You’ve heard about Mom Friend and Dad Friend, now get ready for....
Grandpa Friend™:
- almost always grumpy - bad at showing affection but cares about their friends a lot - “what did you say?”, “Sorry i didn’t hear that, can you repeat it?” - often reminisces about their youth (even though they’re probably only in their twenties. Alternatively: “kids these days…”) - too old for this shit (see above) - totally not down with the youth - bad back (and everything else hurts too) - likes to complain

Because some things are worth fighting for — The War of the Bucket
During the 11th and 12th centuries the Italian states and the German kingdoms were often at war due to a series of conflicts called the Investiture Controversy. The Investiture Controversy was a politically motivated war fought over who would be the supreme power of Europe, the theocratic government of the Roman Catholic Church, or the secular government of the Holy Roman Empire. The Controversy officially came to an end in 1176 when the forces of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa were defeated at the Battle of Legnano.
While the Investiture Controversy ended in 1176, conflict over the issue still remained in Italy between the many kingdoms and city states, which were divided into two factions, the Ghibellines who supported the Holy Roman Emperor, and the Guelfs who supported the Pope. The town of Modena was an ardent Ghibelline city, while Bologna was a staunch Guelf city. Thus for many centuries the two cities were fierce rivals.
One night in 1325 a small group of Modenese commandos snuck into the city and stole the ceremonial civic bucket from the town well. Before they left, they filled it with is much looted treasure as could fit. Enraged by the theft of their sacred bucket, the Bolognese mustered an army of 30,000 men to crush Modena. The two armies met at the town of Zappolino. The Modenese only had an army of 7,000, however the Bolognese were disorganized and poorly armed while the Modenese were well equipped, well trained, and disciplined. As a result, the Battle of Zappolino lasted on 2 hours before the Modenese broke Bolognese ranks, killing 2,000 in the process. The Modenese chased the defeated army all the way to Bologna itself, however they did not have the numbers to lay siege to the city. Rather, they paraded around the city walls, displaying the captured bucket for all to see while shouting insults, wisecracks about Bolognese mothers, and made obscene gestures. Today, the bucket is still in the possession of Modena.
> It worries you how much the standard timeline Sparks dislikes your emperor. Does it mean anything in terms of regret in his counterpart?
> Almost certainly not; in the same way the fact your alternate feels more irrationally concerned that he will one night not change fast enough for Sparks, and you don't.
> Still, the worry clots within you.

DO NOT ON THREAD YOURS TO IMPINGE DESIRE; but to fleet threat mentioned?
Oh man I totally forgot that the Texas Republican Party opposed the teaching of “critical thinking skills” in its 2012 platform because they “focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.”
You can’t even make that shit up
being self-aware enough to realize you’re being irrational but still not being able to stop anything

Eons after the action, all that is left are stories. Eons after )(er Imperious Condescension died, there was the legend of the last Emperor, and the First, the Manumitted.
They had conquered the Alternia devouring queen, )(IC, and had done mighty deeds, freeing the still living Lady of the Deeps from the crushing depths and the land from fear of her unknowable voice. They had ended the mind scourge, the gouges cut into the pans of the then low; they had single handedly killed the creator of the Helmstrolls.
The last Emperor’s line had one last descendant, the Humblest, who after some ten sweeps of making sure it could be done changed the empire, from Alternia its hub to its furthermost reaches into a democracy. Despite his abdication, the Last Emperor remained the last, and held no puppet strings. The empire splintered into planets, each with their own negotiated ties to Alternia, the Hub around which they Spun.
The First, the Manumitted, remembered in two faiths, doffed the title of Highblood as the planet was reformed to be as the First of a new church. This church was not blameless by nature of novelty, yet it decried not the old church, or the messiahs, but what was done in their old names.
Like the First who had been the Grand Highblood, the Messiahs went through a second pupation. Like wrigglers, the gods with his help cast off their old names, no longer Calliope and Caliborn ever again, but only Comedia and Tragedis, different and new and reformed. They were not spoilt children from beyond the stars, but adults, who knew and did not toy with their adherents for plots they could not understand. One night, during a mass of his beloved and sacred paperwork, the First disappeared.
The First of the Church and the Last of the Finperious did not die, say the legends, but abdicated from life into a new and better world, say the church. The First probably used his rumoured reality warping powers, mutter the secular.
Significantly, the church agrees to disagree.
