It all started when beardad gave me a husktop and showed me how to use a computer app called Trollian.
It was just a normal day for me, I was sitting in my respite block, listening to music and drawing the trees that were outside of my window when there was a knock on my door. I got up to answer it and saw beardad there, holding something in his arms. He handed it to me and walked into my room and began growling, something only I can understand. He showed me how to turn it on and how to operate its basic controls. He called it a husktop. He showed me an app called Trollian and said that I could communicate with other trolls using it. As soon as he said that I shoved him out of my room, eager to talk to other trolls and learn about them.
When I first logged onto Trollian it asked for me to create a handle. I had to think for a long time before settling on insightfulParadox. Due to the fact that I was partially blind in both eyes but could still see. When I think back, my name choice doesn't really make sense, but lets stop with the interjections and get back to the story.
As soon as I logged in I got a request from captivatingDarkness. I quickly accepted and noticed that they had logged off right after sending me the request. Frowning I looked at the list of people who had a Trollian. I requested to be friends with carcinoGenecist, twinArmageddons, and gallowsCalibrator. As I was looking one name caught my eye, ingratiatingAquatic.
It seemed interesting, considering ingratiating meant grateful. I sent a request and waited, in the hopes they would accept and be online, so I could form friendships like I'd always wanted.
