Sparkle considered that for a moment, before chuckling and shaking his head a little.

"What do most people at Fandom have to hide from? Like, they show up and it's this fucking fantasy island where everyone's accepted for who they are and nobody judges them, and, like, not a single one of them stops to think about who they're going to be when they leave again. And, you know, it's a when. Not everyone can stick around and teach after. Some might. Most don't ever come back. So they let the act drop and they come out of their shell or whatever, and everything is all sunshine and flowers until grad comes and they realize that they have no clue how to survive back home once they go."
