This is going to be worse than talking to my racist grandpa isn ' t it ? <| sep |> smh this world went mad 5 years agoFTFYIronically , half this sub would still be in diapers smh <| sep |> So Karkat actually realized what happened was because of his powers ? Cool . Also it ' s nice to see some KarkatKanaya dialogue that isn ' t him just dumping his issues everywhere , or at least being repentant about doing so . <| sep |> What to make of that ? Rather reservedly and soberly now recited . As if I were speaking to a dry and boring history book , instead of hearing warmhearted firsthand stories about the nest that spawned the famous Eagle Knight . It seems , we ' re just hurting ourselves with this . Let ' s elegantly take a different direction . Oh I did do as I pleased quite often . Too often , as my vassals considered it . I travelled the Reach and the Crownlands quite a lot . And even the Westerlands . And the Riverlands , but mentioning this will lead to nowhere again , and that ' s where I wanted to get away from His tone was welcoming and warmhearted again , and sometimes he would tilt his head from one side to the other now , musingly , amusedly , questioningly , jokingly . He seemed extraordinary alive now , while he spoke . Well , at least relatively , still speaking about brooding Morryn in this respectI spent several months as a hedge knight when I was 21 . Which was quite a lot of fun because the Lord I was mainly sworn to was well somebody who ' d scold me for everything I did on the one hand , while being desperately in need of me to do the job on the other hand . He didn ' t know who I was , and I didn ' t tell him . Not even when I left him , though I guess that would have been fun . When I was about to leave , he mentioned doggedly , however , that no other hedge knight before had stood being in his service for so long . I guess that was one of the greatest and most honest compliments I ' ve ever received . I also served Lord Alyn Baratheon last year . I was part of his officer corps and would assist in revising the articles of war , encampment and marching orders , elaborating on marching routes and lines of communication and replenishments . I was cooperating with very fine knights and lords thereby . And I ' ve always loved being at Storm ' s End . I know many people there . Well , and apart from that I have had the extraordinary luck to study for three semesters at Oldtown . Which was a really great time as well , though I fear boys like you might have found it extraordinarily boring . He winked at him , amusedly daring to tease him a little . No , to be honest , they have great books about warfare in their libraries . And the city is just brilliant as well . So many artisans , artists , famed knights . You could set out for some adventure every day . Or spend your time in the libraries instead . Well I fear I could tell you more about my little shenanigans I ' ve indulged in during the last eight years . But that would take more than only one glass of notorious Arbor Wine . But I bet , however boldly or foolishly I was roaming around , none of my little adventures could even in the slightest hope to best those of a widely renowned and famed longtime Kingsguard celebrity He snorted softly , ironically , amusedly and tossed his head a little . Oh , and here comes the pie And so he carefully put the glasses aside to make room for their dinner .
