[Self burn, -10 health, hurt them before they hurt you.
She studies him as he rambles, a furrow drawn clear between her brows. She shakes no when he asks, doesn't like horror. Tilts her head at the admission that he doesn't either.
He won't look her in the eye. Is he scared she'll snap? It's to be expected but it still feels weird. Especially when he's a whole head taller than her. Naegi got away with it because he was pint sized and had all the presence of a stunned bunny, and Hagakure was too stupid to keep his act together. This guy is just...off his centre? Cowed by her presence?
He shouldn't be. He could get away with at least a little ego, with a face like that.]
I c-can't stand blood and gore. Stuff like that used to make me faint. But, th-there can be something striking in the grotesque. There's beauty in ugly things, sometimes.
[It's the thesis of every love story she wrote. Simplicity was boring, the beautiful are always given the moon and the stars. There's better material in the outcasts, the misshapen.
There's a frown when he asks about Tokyo. He's pretty modern, shouldn't he know?
She opens her mouth. Then she remembers. Her question becomes a grumble, hand clapping to her temple.]
Ugh, this alternate reality crap is so exhausting. How many versions of history does there have to be? [Whatever. She pries the hand off and rolls her eyes as she lays it out, clean and simple.] Th-the world ended. Everyone went insane and overthrew their governments, blew it all up. There wasn't much of Tokyo left around our sch-school when we got out. The air is hard to breathe in some spots.
Towa City was doing better than m-most. Then the kids started slaughtering the adults. They had th-these horrible robots — and I know. I know it sounds stupid, but it's the truth. I couldn't come up with a shittier apocalypse if I tried. So you better believe me.
[If nothing else, it might explain why her uniform is so thoroughly tattered. She sure doesn't look like she's been living in the lap of luxury.]

There's efforts to fix it all, but it's slow.
