Bilateral Body Symmetry

snippet oo3

i once was a face sucking cephalopod from the depths of neptune. i discovered that my neptunian ideals are frowned upon here. the earth race found my tentacles and my speckled skin revolting. i became instead, a human girl of seventeen, with soft lips and golden hair. they do not scream now when they see me but i still suck faces.

Impressive writing...I can't figure out which emotion to feel, these few words are so full. Should I laugh, cry or feel awe? I feel sympathy...I wish humans would accept the neptunian for what she is...isn't that how it should be.

lol i am sitting next to you as i write this. this is really funny. at the same time it is also sad. it's short, obvs, but really too the point.
