Commas Are All Thats Holding My Fics Together

Commas are all that’s holding my fics together

I’ve been playing The Oregon Trail lately, and I thought the hardest thing about the game would be keeping my people alive. Nope, nuh uh.

The hardest part about the game is not purposely sending them to their deaths because of how annoying my people are. I had a guy who had mad skills but couldn’t do anything right, a woman stupid enough to eat all the plants we needed for medicine on many occasions, and another lady who stormed off from the group every 5 minutes just to come back in the next town over as if nothing happened.

Like yes Emma stuff did go down. We almost DIED out their because YOU couldn’t wait 5 more miles to the next town checkpoint.
