[@KatherinWinter] [@midnightt] [@NachoBachoPacho] With Griffin putting me on the spot, I was frozen and flustered, trying to think of a retort or statement. It took me a few minutes to break from my stupor [color=a0410d]"h-hah, ofcourse not! Its just I wouldn't want to disgrace my partner like that, after all, that would make things complicated and she deserves better."[/color] I said, though I didnt stutter as much, and my voice was confident. My smile was faked and I had my eyes closed, averting my gaze from the group. Sacrificing my pride for that statement was the most painful thing I had done to myself, even more so when I almost choked on the chain from alicia's weapon when I first used her.
