    The reason why drag misunderstood the situation is because Ada broke a promise. Drag thought she kept it because drag trusted her. She thought drag was trying to make her look bad by proving she lied. But… drag couldn’t know the promise was broken, because it was to have a conversation in private messages. Drag thought the third party involved was lying that Ada didn’t do it. Drag was trying to prove them wrong by showing the promise. Drag didn’t know that proving Ada made a promise would make her look bad.

      What the fuck are you talking about? Are you referring to yourself in the third person? Is this supposed to be cute?

        They’ve done it on all the comments I’ve seen from them, I cringe hard every time.

            People tend to cringe at weirdos who try to impose their incredibly niche language choices onto others

            Like that guy who insisted on speaking exclusively in older English spellings (and was, like drag, a massive troll that was successful for a shockingly long time)

      I get it. It’s never a pleasant thing to have a misunderstanding come to the worse end of possible outcomes. Given enough time, I hope that it can turn back around and resolve into a mutually acceptable and friendly outcome.

      Hey, it took me months to wrap my head around things and figure out my own internal quirks, and we didn’t have any kind of event to make either of us question trust. It might take longer, even much longer, but I still don’t think there was any ill intent on either side, so it should work out eventually. Give it time, stay optimistic.

        Thank you, but drag thinks you’re wrong. Drag doesn’t think Ada is the forgiving type. The mistake drag made that lead to getting banned was trusting Ada would keep her promise. Like drag said, drag learned from it. No more trusting Ada.

        Drag recognises that’s not a good foundation for reconciliation. But that’s what it feels like Ada was trying to teach drag with the ban. How else is drag supposed to interpret that?
