Greetings, Child. You May Call Me The Dolorosa And Look To Me As You Would A Mother.

gr8est-gam8ligant asked: We meet again, my lovely slave girl.
Mindfang? I Must Admit My Surprise. I Have Not Seen You For Quite Some Time. I Will Spare You Redundancies By Asking How You Fare. I See My Son Has Already Asked, And I Am… Glad To See You Are In Good Health.

I Apologize For My Unannounced Absence.
(OOC: Been really busy with work, finding a new/second job, and my family’s business, so things have been kinda tough for me on time. I hope that’s okay… ^-^” )

((OOC: Holy crap. That was fun.))
((And apparently you guys liked it. Omg~ <33333
Did anyone get my totes canon references to Lord English while explaining All-Consuming Hate? Eh? Eh?))
((OOC: Wow, I don’t know where this came from. I just got bored, I think. o_o
Also, I’m sorry about the length-y-ness.))
After I Received A Question Regarding My Lusus-Like Relationship With Signless, I Began To Put Thought Into The Grid-Beyond-The-Grid I Had Described. I Quickly Drew Up This Diagram And The Following Explanation To Give Light To My Theories About My Experiences.
This, The Flushed Grid, Is A Grid That Is Dictated By Our Affections and Loyalties. Few Trolls Ever Experience These Feelings Described, And I Found It Both Stimulating And Therapeutic To Compose. Hopefully This Will Better Describe The Relationships I’ve Seen That Go Beyond The Grid We Know.
The Top Left Quadrant Is The Paternal Quadrant. This Would Be Where My Relationship With The Signless Lies. I Am Quite Like His Would-Be Lusus, But Ours Is A Deeper Connection Than Any Lusus Could Give Because I Am Completely Sentient. There Has Been Arguments About The Sentience Of Lusi, But For Simplicitys Sake, I Will Use The Term Loosely. The Purpose Of A Paternal Relation Would Be To Serve As A Kind Of Friend And Mentor With Authority To Teach Discipline.
Below That Is The Fraternal/Sororal Quadrant, In Which Would Lie A Sibling. If I Had Adopted A Second Wiggler To Grow Up Alongside Signless, This Would Be Their Quadrant. A Sibling Would Serve As A Friend And A Sort Of Rival, As I Have Oft Seen Self-Proclaimed Sisterhoods And Brotherhoods Competing For A Common Goal. In This Case, The Goal Could Be Any Number Of Things. It Could Be As Petty As Winning A Game, Or As Serious As Who Can Fill All Of Their Quadrants First.
To The Right Of That Quadrant Is The Platonic Quadrant. This Is Where The Majority Of Our Relations Would Go, And Perhaps The Most-Experienced In Normal Troll Society. This Is Where One Might Place Their Closest Friends. Not To Be Mistaken For Moiraillegience, Platonic Friendship Is Not Derived From Pity, But From Commonalities. Platonic Relations Serve As Life-Long Allies.
The Top Right Quadrant I Have Reserved For Last Because Of Its Significance. True Love Is A Most Sacred And Rare Relation, As I Have Ever Only Seen One Relationship I Can Describe As True Love: The Signless And The Disciple. True Love Is Absolute Loyalty To The Other, Regardless Of The Passage Of Time, And The Distance Between The Two Engaged In The Relationship. In Fewer Words, This Relation Transcends Time, Space, And Even Death. Aside From, Uhm, Lust-Fulfilling Companions, True Lovers Are The Culmination Of The Other Three Quadrants, A Mentor, An Ally, And Perhaps Even A Rival Too. But, They Are Also Quite A Bit More Than Simply Those. What More They Do For Each Other Is Beyond My Knowledge, However, As I Have Never Experienced This Quadrant Myself.
What Is Remarkable About These Quadrants, However, Is That None Of Them Should Have Any Negative Impact. Yes, Bad Things Happen, But That Is A Fact Of Life, Not A Fact Of Relationships, Unlike Kismesitude, Which Is Based Solely On Negativity, And Auspisticsm Which Is Based Off Of Avoiding A Kismesitude That Is Likely Doomed To Kill Both Parties Rather Than Inspire Spiteful Black Dances Between Action And Reaction.
Below Both Grids Is Where Something Truly Unspeakable Is, However. I Have Never Delved Into It Myself, But All-Consuming Hate Is The Origin Of Our Black Lust. I Admit To Being Curious About It, But I Dare Say Ill Ever Attempt To Feel All-Consuming Hate For Anyone. I Fear It Would Destroy Any And All Relations And Turn Me Into A Senselessly Violent Demon Of Sorts, Bent On Destroying Everything In Its Path To Accomplish Some Gog-Forsaken Goal. There Are Stories Of Such A Demon, But They Are Likely Myths And Have No Real Significance To The True Origin Of Our Darker Quadrants, Which I Suspect To Be Purely Biological.
Perhaps There Is Even Another, Blacker Grid Below Our Already Dark Inclinations.
This Has Been Surprisingly Relaxing. I Might Try To Record My Findings Another Time Should I Have Any More That Hold Any Kind Of Insight.

A Hug? Yes, I Suppose I Can Give You A Hug. Are You Troubled, Dear? You Seem To Be Mistyping Even More Frequently Than Usual.
the-heir-of-void asked: Hello, mother. It is a pleasure to see you again.
And You, Equius. How Do You Fare?

Hm. No, It Does Make Sense, Having Been In That Relationship-Beyond-The-Grid For Quite Some Time. I Cannot Compare It To Anything Considered Status-Quo In Troll Culture, However.
It Was, If I Could Describe It As Anything, Intriguing, And At The Same Time, Joyous. Taking The Role As Signless’ Lusus Was A Learning Experience For Us Both. I Taught Him About The World, And He Taught Me About The World In His Eyes. I Suppose, I Could Describe It As Having A Lusus That Could Speak, But… It Is Even More Complex Than That Alone.
I Imagine An Undiscovered Set Of Quadrants That Is Not Dictated By Hate Or Pity, But By Care And Loyalty. I Imagine Myself Situated In A Quadrant On That Grid Reserved For Paternal Relationships. I’ll Have To Make This Grid To Demonstrate Sometime…

I Apologize For My Recent Absence And Return To You Now With Open Arms.
