"What are you, my therapist? uvu"

"............................................................."

"Yes. :)"

"Why am I forced to listen to a D-class, anyway? uvu"

"Cool. Nice. I'm O-class now, but thanks for remembering my original class. :))))"

"You're here because your aggressive fucking attitude means no one wants to work with you and they want me to fix it. :)"

"And what I really mean to say, is they want you to kill me and you to go to jail so we'll both be out of the picture, so if we could both work together, that'd be great. :)"

"And you're going to "fix" me by telling me I've been abused? uvu"

"No. I am informing you that you have been abused. That part is not a lie to avoid getting murdered. :)"

"Everyone gets hit as a child by their M-class. You're going to call that abuse? I lied. I got hit. It's what I deserved, D-class. uvu"

"Going to ignore you saying D-class if that's ok and cool, 'cause arguing about names isn't going to be productive here."

"Also, I don't know shit about what goes on in those villages, or if like, this is some fucked up culture thing, but I did my research and actually
1. Statistically most M-classes don't hit their children.
2. Even if we act like that's normal and cool, what happened to you was in the extra end of abusive shit. :))))"

O-5 pulls at his hands, his iron gloves protecting him from pulling at his skin. ".....Really?"

He shakes his head. "It's normal. And even if it's not normal, I came out just fine, D-class. uvu"

Princess flips through a few pages in the folder in front of her. "Oh, huh? What did you say? I couldn't hear you over this report about you smashing the Q-class leader into a coma because they correctly corrected you on what clockwork you two were dealing with. :)"

O-5 pushes the papers off the table before leaning over and getting as close to Princess's face as possible. "Say that I was wrong again. I dare you, D-class."

But she does not flinch. "Nothing you could do to me could be even a fraction as horrible as the things I have already experienced in my life. That is not a challenge. That is a fact."

O-5 sits back down. "You were abused. I was not. Don't reflect your own issues onto me, D-class. uvu"

"It's ok, this isn't a contest. We can both be losers here. :)"

"But I get it. You're not ready to touch on it, so let's start with something simpler."

"Those gloves look super uncomfortable to wear."

"........................."

"If you hold your hands together behind your back, being unable to see your hands might help stop your picking issue. How about you give it a try? :)"
