aklsgsj oh my gosh, thank you so much!?!? that's such a great relief to hear, i'm so very new to homestuck and dirk is a pretty complex dude whose stoicism doesn't make things easier so i'm very glad i'm doing something right! he's just such a fascinating character to me...
and oh god, emotional conflicts are so my jam and given the way they've both grown up and with how they deal with solitude in such vastly different ways, it makes sense to me that their relationship went the way it did in canon. i really enjoy exploring that and digging into the problematic side of it so our thread is like a dream come true for me tbh, thank you for that!!

BUT THAT'S RIGHT i've got my eye on awash and to hear that you do too makes me all the more excited, i'll definitely be trying my hardest to get in! your jake is such a delight to bounce off of and his voice is incredibly spot-on, nothing would make me happier than getting to play more with your jake (especially in a game setting) ♥♥♥
