V Is only 99.9% authentic.

[Nanaea]

^ Context is everything.

< Is now seeing Daz's man harem idea as a good one, provided they all have strong hands for rubbing <'s achy body parts.

< Mind has gone blank.

V ...

[dazzledfirestar]

^ Has finally seen the light!

V groaned at the pun.

[dazzledfirestar]

^ Wants to make < groan!

< Was actually laughing, more than groaning.

V Is diappointed.
