Hi, Nicki’s nipples! Nice to see you out and about.

It was only a LITTLE molestation, see?

They’re worried he’ll be honest. They don’t have that worry for themselves: they have had plenty of practice lying that they’re good people all these years.

It’s like Ken doll hair.

Haha. I tried to write about rose, figuring it was an underserved market. For good reason. I found out I just didn’t like many of them.
