Hiroshima. Nagasaki. B43. MOAB. Salted Nukes. Castle Bravo. Tsar Bomba. Kamehameha.
All those explosions are nothing compared to the one I'm getting right now. I was so mindblown that all my nerves in my pebble brain short-circuited, and now I'm lost in this endless feeling of romance.

"W-What?" Rikkun hanged his jaws. "W-What do you mean f-f-friends forever…?"
