“I hoped you’d trust me to the extent you make me trust you,” he said stiffly. Then he pulled away, growled in frustration, and banged his head once, extra hard. “Sorry. I don’t know where it’s coming from.”

But . . . but you did start hurting yourself . . . she said weakly.

She was quiet for a moment.

I'm sorry. How can I do better . . . ?

He opened his mouth but snapped it shut again, closing his eyes for a few seconds. “You don’t. Need to, I mean. I’m working on it. You didn’t do anything wrong; you were right.”

She twiddled her thumbs.

But . . . I'm doing something wrong. What is it?

"You're 100% sure this won't backfire?" she asked

Hehehe I always think of old people 

“You’re not. You’re doing fine.” He hesitated. 

“It… doesn’t matter anyway. They’ll want me home, probably. So… I don’t know how much longer I’ll be around.” 

He resisted the urge to bang the thought out of his skull and looked away to blink back stupid tears.

She dropped her expression, annoyed. "So something could still go wrong then?"

Lol why?

She grabbed his wrist.

“I won’t have a choice,” he said softly. “If they want to study me or something.”

In a way, it might be nice to have a purpose. Maybe they’d finally care about him…

"That's fair I just-" she stopped herself and sighed. "You'd better be right about this."

Starlight looked over at Five. "So, where do you think they're taking us

“I am.”

She shrugged. “Another penthouse?”

She scoffed and looked out her window, not wanting to continue anymore.

"I hope so. That last place was nice. It felt... safe" he said longingly

Five nodded. 

“Almost there,” Ria announced as she turned onto a bumpy dirt road.

He nodded to Ria. "So... Whitney? That's a nice name." he whispered, making sure no one was paying attention

“Thank you. I like it too. My parents gave it to me!”

He smiled, but it faded slowly. "I'm glad you remember them." he said, wishing he could remember his own

I slept last night. On time. I's proud of this.

S-study you? Why?

She hesitated. “I… don’t think so.”

-

“It’s the nature I adopted,” she replied simply. 

EXACTLY 

She did the same, but got distracted watching little fishes. 

“I guess you can… I want to bring back Lady Bug, and everyone else I…”

She opened her mouth, but hesitated. That question had started all this in the first place. 

She could find a nature later. 

“Would you mind if I tagged along for your plans?”

Cricket sighed, playing guitar, but ended up staring at Rose. "Do you hate me?" he asked suddenly.

YAY YAY YAY GOOD JOOOOOOOOOB

He led them down the hall to a wide, open room. The floor was one giant map, and more flanked the walls.

S-study you? Why?

He fished in his bag for a Nullite pebble, then dropped it, willing it toward the wall. It clattered against the wall before sliding down to the floor.

She looked up and raised an eyebrow. 

“Excuse me?”
