>>98296102We only knew each other from the beginning of Middle School up until High School, which was about as long as I've ever managed with a friendship myself anyways. And honestly, there was actually plenty of developmental telltale signs with her in hindsight - but the problem was that I, too, was also a turbo-edgy fuckwad back then myself... Easily worse off than her, even, so her own behavior to me was never anything strikingly out of the ordinary. We both came from immensely fucked up households, and our poorfag minority melting pot of a school system wasn't much of an ideal sanctuary either. But it was always my impression that deep down - neither of us *really* wanted to be the way we were, it was just the inhospitable climate of our lives that demanded us to cope in radical extremes, so we could survive by any mean's necessary then until we could get out of there and continue our existence under less hostile circumstances elsewhere. That's how I always reasoned it, anyways. But she was always so much kinder than me, too, despite having a very asshole-ish exterior...
For various tl;dr reasons of my own, I ended up dropping out of school to get the fuck out of that shithole of a pseudo-prison before I ended up a fucking school shooter or something, since I was suffering from a near-palpable mental degradation among those literal sub-human animals. We fell out of touch, and I ended up in social isolation for a long time, mostly to "reform" myself between under-the-table work since being a violent, paranoid asshole isn't any practical way to live.
Evidently, she never did get that chance herself. Last I've seen of her, she was far worse off than before, as I've mentioned. She had been shaped into something like a radicalized force of malice, like a femme-version of Hyde with no inhibitions and only the basest, most disgusting spectrum of emotions accessible to her. I had never known just how bad things were for us then until I saw her as she was now.
