2021-05-14 16:03:17 +0000 UTCHow about a punch in the face, Thomas? Made fresh, just for you 👊👊👊👊👊👊

2021-05-14 15:40:14 +0000 UTCMaking blanket statements about infernals is racism. Just because you, Thomas, were hurt by a single individual doesn’t give you the right to maintain such harmful prejudice.
Ana
2021-05-14 14:48:03 +0000 UTCI know Thomas’ prejudices are probably really common in their world but...can Mansa please find like literally any other friend? 😑
Glissando365
2021-05-14 14:42:08 +0000 UTClol my thoughts exactly. Having one bad experience with infernal and then becoming racist is like the opposite of experience

2021-05-14 14:36:09 +0000 UTCI've got nothing but ”Ugh!"

2021-05-14 13:46:26 +0000 UTCI think the worst thing about Thomas is, he's classmates with Mansa, which means, if he doesn't fuck up, he too will be a judge, and bring those prejudices to the courthouse.

2021-05-14 13:29:55 +0000 UTCI am unsure if he is trying to be helpful or an ass. But at least we know he's not the one that hurt song. Or at least that's what you said before. Not sure if things have changed. But now I'm not sure if he is jealous of song for being with Mansa or of Mansa being with song. But regardless thank you for posting everyday. Things are rough on this end but having these really helped my morning.

2021-05-14 12:44:49 +0000 UTC👿😡😡😡😡🤬 I think that about covers it.
HazelnuttGem
2021-05-14 12:38:57 +0000 UTCYou know how you can play Tieflings in the new Baldur's Gate? And how they're hated in lore for being infernal and "evil" and it's an allegory for racism? And how douchey that is in general. And me with my Tiefling Crowley, booting up the game and getting REALLY DEFENSIVE whenever the NPCs started talking about how much they looked down on Tieflings TO MY TIEFLING? Yeah. Thomas is giving me that energy right now. 😅 I will FITE. Boy gonna get SUCH A SMACK!

2021-05-14 12:17:17 +0000 UTCOkay so now I'm interested in what his "experience" may be...
Marta
2021-05-14 12:03:11 +0000 UTCThomas has A LOT of baggage, I’ll get into that later in the story!
Whiteley Foster
2021-05-14 11:56:20 +0000 UTCSurf's up, Whiteley! ;)
Vala
2021-05-14 11:55:21 +0000 UTCWonder if we’ll get to know more about Thomas’s relationship with infernals (what experience?) but it’s no reason to be prejudiced in general. Don’t make Mansa choose Thomas, you’ll be the loser!
Nicola Coxon
2021-05-14 11:38:33 +0000 UTC‘I speak from experience that absolutely no one, infernal, human or houseplant, is willing to exist in my presence for more than a bit of fun because I’m less tolerable than a pustule’ There... fixed it... 😡😡😡
JillianVolts
2021-05-14 11:35:30 +0000 UTCI don't hate Thomas (yet) me and my friends will call each other out when we think the other is about to do something stupid and try and stop them - it's led to some almighty arguments. But never onece have we doubted the other will be there when it blows up in their face, or with a cocktail when by a miracle it goes right!!
Faye Hyland
2021-05-14 11:33:28 +0000 UTCYeah. I hate him.

2021-05-14 11:25:12 +0000 UTCSHUT! UP!
Ash S.
2021-05-14 11:24:59 +0000 UTCI’m torn between “who hurt you” and “who the hell did you hurt?” I definitely hate him though. “Speaking from experience”, you’re like 22 tops, you don’t have that much experience with it.
sparksearcher
2021-05-14 11:04:59 +0000 UTCSomehow, I think Thomas already experienced what Mansa will after Break-Up, but their reactions are polar opposites. And that can be because of their clashing personalities and/or, and I think this is actually more important, the level of commitment the couples had. Sometimes the love is there but it's just not quite enough, and maybe that's what Thomas went through, and these are the consequences

2021-05-14 10:52:57 +0000 UTCI do have an answer for the last question! Infernal magic is mostly used to hex small items like cosmetics, things like beauty serums and love elixirs. Because actually using real magic is a very difficult practice many don’t use it or have forgotten how all together so this is how they make easy money. The problem is these hexes items are illegal in human communities because they are very addictive to humans, not so much devils though. Human governments have started to demonize (Lol) infernals because of the detrimental effect their magic is having on the human community. (Song was a hex runner from 18 to 19, using his magic to hex items and then delivering it to customers)
Whiteley Foster
2021-05-14 10:52:18 +0000 UTCI'd love to know more about the poor infernal behind that "from experience". And I already love Thomas (as a character, of course). I can't wait to hate him more.

2021-05-14 10:52:07 +0000 UTCI love how invested in mansong we all are
Unashamedly-enthusiastic
2021-05-14 10:52:00 +0000 UTCSo you've personally met every infernal?
rippingoffmyface
2021-05-14 10:51:10 +0000 UTCDuuuuuuuuuuude, racism isn’t cool, Thomas!!!
rev02a
2021-05-14 10:50:10 +0000 UTCoh Thomas, just fuck right off already 😤 *speaking from experience*, oh my Someone, if you treat your partner like shit, they would never be a good partner to you 😔 and one person is not EVERYONE 🤷🏻♀️
sick_pineapple
2021-05-14 10:47:02 +0000 UTCThomas seems like someone with a serious heartachecand disappointment (in himself or a lover), which makes him bitter and full of prejudice😓
Eszter Tóth
2021-05-14 10:45:10 +0000 UTCAnd I hate him, public enemy #1 and I'm gonna fight him 🥊😵😂
strawhat4life
2021-05-14 10:44:26 +0000 UTCReally, Thomas? 😒 Somehow how I doubt that’s the truth
Mimsynims
2021-05-14 10:43:24 +0000 UTCWhat an bigoted idiot! And I am so relieved to know Song and Mansa will have a beautiful family in the future. I hope Mansa tells him off big time.
scatteroflight
2021-05-14 10:42:37 +0000 UTCWas thinking the same thing!
Mimsynims
2021-05-14 10:42:37 +0000 UTCSomehow I convinced myself that Thomas was the one who hurt Song, and his comment about "speaking from experience" doesn't help!!
Hannah Barnes
2021-05-14 10:42:00 +0000 UTCAlso I want to know the history of infernals and humans. How have they come to be the two races in the world? What's the relationship between them and why? Infernals seem to be looked down upon by humans, is there a reason for that?
Arctic Rose
2021-05-14 10:41:42 +0000 UTCIt’s harsh what he’s saying, even mean... but he says he’s speaking from experience, so I guess he’s been hurt badly by an infernal before...? Or someone he cares about has been hurt?
Yuu
2021-05-14 10:41:33 +0000 UTCGo shove your racism up your ugly ass and leave, sir!
Tomanto
2021-05-14 10:41:25 +0000 UTCYou're right. I hate him.
Arctic Rose
2021-05-14 10:40:38 +0000 UTCGo FUCK yourself! no one else will want to do it
