Only if the idea of 'doing what they want' is exclusive to the person. FL for example does whatever he wants as both alignments, but he sugarcoats it as scum. I don't know who puppy is exactly but nothing tells me that doing whatever he wants is something that he lean into as scum.
Can someone else give me a second opinion on whether these two posts are directly contradictory bc they feel that way to me

I don't think you have, lol. I don't have anything serious against the word but I also don't really see a reason to use it when "while" means the same thing and is clearer.
Based on his response to your absence, it doesn't seem like you'd be able to.
It'd probably be hard to pocket someone while being invisible.
but I also don't really try to pocket mena when I'm town :3

I don't understand where you see the contradiction

Fucking THANK you
People have a really bad habit of using it in the Uk bc they think it sounds more educated or more cultured and shit and it’s like, no, you sound like you stumbled into this conversation out of a bad BBC regency drama adaptation, say while like a normal person from the 21st century

I think there is a way that they could not be contradictory if one of them was poorly explained; I don't really want to tell them the out. You should explain what the issue is and see how they respond
Yes that's the point. So if you always lurk when in a hydra, then it's false that you would be trying to pocket Menalque as scum, right?

Okay, contradiction as I see it:
“Puppy does what puppy wants and I think that’s guttown”
I point out that people doing what people want is basically NAI as scum do this plenty of the time
“nothing tells me that doing whatever he wants is something puppy would lean into as scum”
Okay, so him doing whatever he wants isn’t *scum!indicative* for him, but it also makes no sense to conclude he’s town based on it
It feels like an excuse to TR a bad slot I think you have partner equity with

Wow I wish kori would do stuff bc I’d be willing to try and derail their wagon for AC but not while I’m still this unsure on them

If you think I'm puppy's partner I'd be willing to stake a vote on him. Sometimes gut is not very explainable, though I tried my best to summarize my feelings. I think you just disagreed with how it came out, even if it were sloppy
I would like a more thorough response to 1442 and sure, I’ll hold you to that tomorrow, as mentioned I think the TNK wagon is too established to dismantle today eso this close to deadline and without the slot actually being super town
