Huh... I find it easy enough to be social, it's just... making it mean something that's rough.
[ He's spent so much time just doing as he's told and pleasing the people he was meant to please with no real warmth behind it. Now when he sees that warmth elsewhere, it's hard to figure out how he fits into it. ]

[ that actually gets him to laugh. it's not entirely filled with humor but it is...man. ]
Being yourself is actually one of the hardest things in the world, especially when you've been told you're supposed to be one thing that you don't always want to be.

Most amazing person I know. And one of the most stubborn. [ haha. ] From what I gather, Team Fox is full of people who'll hype you up even when you can't always understand what they even see in you. And eventually you start believing it and figuring out who you want to be. I think it's pretty amazing myself. You guys are pretty balanced that way.
