Let's get the record straight

I am NOT an albino.

Just because I have pale skin, white hair and violet eyes does NOT make me some genetic freak.

And before you ask, no, no one on the community said this. I'm just getting it out of the way before people start asking stupid questions.

No, you're just an annoying kid, then.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

You're one to talk, mister.

[hates-cliches.livejournal.com]

I thought an albino was a rabbit but it looks like the animal virus has finished...for most people anyway!

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

... the hell happened to you?

[fillmydarksoul.livejournal.com]

Thanks for an update. But, if we're going on just generalities then you'd be a big lug that lazes around.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

I'm not lazing around! I'm hard at work spelunking through some old ruins, looking for treasure! Not to mention trying to keep our leader from getting in over her head.

Don't albinos usually have red eyes?

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

That's what I told Janus, but he's just being an asshole.

...Albinos don't have violet eyes.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. Tell that to the asshole traveling with me. I know he's just doing it to get on my nerves, and normally I can blow this kind of thing off, but for some reason, it's just really getting to me right now.

If no one has mentioned those attributes, then you are merely calling attention to yourself.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

Someone was bound to ask the question sooner or later. There's plenty of nosy people like that around here. Might as well get it out of the way and save myself the aggravation.

[the-air-corsair.livejournal.com]

They why do you have those traits?

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

How the hell should I know? I was just born this way, I guess.

[nike-hat.livejournal.com]

Why would anyone say that in the first place?

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

Because people are morons, that's why. And this guy is just trying to get on my nerves (and he's doing a spectacular job of it, too).

[agent-86-smart.livejournal.com]

Even if you where a genetic freak. I'm sure there's people who don't mind it.

Sides, I've seen people you wouldn't believe.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

I don't care what people think of me. But it does get annoying after a while, having people always staring at you. Especially in bars.

Really? Like what?

[cold-sarcasm.livejournal.com]

And we should care... Why?

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

You don't.

[needsmapquest.livejournal.com]

Green hair.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

That's not unusual. In fact, one of my traveling companions has green hair, too.

[hok-ton.livejournal.com]

Why would an 'albino' be called a genetic freak? There is nothing wrong with that body type.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

Because it's not a common mutation, and when you live on a desert world, lack of skin pigmentation is not a good thing. I mean, who wants to get sunburned after being outside for only five seconds?

[not-abeansprout.livejournal.com]

Oh, I've heard all of that before too. But I don't think there's anything wrong with white hair.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

Neither do I, but it just gets really old after awhile, having people stare at you and asking really personal and embarrassing questions.

[tenkuuzakura.livejournal.com]

It's not that unusual. I know a kid with silver hair and violet eyes.

[drifterforhire.livejournal.com]

Really? Who? Is he on the community?
