You might be tired of “object backstory” but I’m tired of “heroic psychopaths” so what i’m saying is I stopped reading around volume 3 or 4.
Okay.
Sorry I shouldn’t have snapped at you.
I…didn’t think you had? I was just acknowledging your comment, albeit in a somewhat sarcastic manner. As is my wont.
