Note to Pie: I originally considered calling it "thought_bubble" which I think is a more widespread term than "thought_balloon", but somehow in the context of Homestuck that seemed a little uncomfortably similar to "dream bubble", so that's why I went with "balloon" (also for consistency with "word_balloon").

Makes sense to me. Bubble is the more used term in comics and stuff as far as I know, but I can see where confusion could be bred, and balloon feels like an acceptable synonym to me. Making the mental note about it now. Thanks.
