If so, I don't think she had that in mind when she drew it; she's not that deep. I remember though that one of her FF.nte screen names was Unicorn something, and she used to talk abotu herself morphing into a unicorn. (And then taking Link to bed. Eww. I still have some of those saved.)

I sort of got that, too. But I didn't want to commit to it because in LQ's mind, things are twisted, and anything goes.

I'll see you your allegory and raise you a subconsious, symbolic metaphor: LQ sees everyone that is Not LQ as a nameless, faceless person. LQ is LQ's world, and I think that, no matter how much she talks about how caring she is, everything and everyone outside of her tiny little LQ sphere is just static and noise. Will it get her what she wants? (Sympathy, praise, recognition, etc.) Then she will try to use ploys that Other People use in order to get those things (in this case, kind words on the internet.)

Yes, for the record, I really do think she's a sociopath, and that it's that bad. If I may, I get a really strong vibe from the way she writes. It's not just that she's uneducated and ignorant, either. It's that her rhythm and her peculiar brand of "sense" just screams "She Ain't Right" to me.

I wondered. In fact, seeing that I cut my hair to almost that exact length and style recently, she kind of looks very much like an anime version of me. LMFAO! LQ is spying on me! She knows what I look like! (Kidding. Though she could very well know what I look like, as there have been pictures of me here and there on the 'net and I know she's seen them.)

>As the

And I think that in that way, she's been made aware that there are Other People who can and do influence things in and outside of her world. I know this sounds very Stephen King, but I think it shocks the hell out of her when someone outside of her brain makes her feel or behave a certain way.

She's going to hurt someone someday, you know.


>And the crying girl, I think, represents LQ herself,

Without a doubt. Look at the other drawings. The girl is Jenna/Kitiara/Link's Queen.

Dude, I didn't think of that. Perhaps you're right.

That's me; the evil puppeteer. ;)

If so, then a very interesting stretch.

God but she's fun. ^_^
