Oh, okay, I'll click, but you're going to have to write a note to my boss explaining why I'm never getting any work done again.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

A raise is always a reminder I make too much and will have a helluva time meeting it elsewhere.
I spent most of my childhood outdoors in the summer. I think kids just don't mind getting all sweaty and nasty the way most adults do.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Growing up in Phoenix and LV I was pretty insensitive to the heat. Weather never played a role in whether or not I went outside.
Summer is also my favorite season.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The smaller you are, the more efficiently you cool, IIRC. Plus, as a kid, I never worried about being sweaty. I wouldn't now, but I do every now and again have to be presentable.
Plus I do my own laundry.

Winter rain would drive me inside. Because, you know, I might melt. Plus it was cold.
I still love the sensation of your skin tightening up when you walk outside into 100 degree dry heat. It's refreshing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
it isn't the heat that I mind, it is the fact that I am supposed to do stuff other than watch tv and read when it is hot.
