Ren jumped slightly and faced the boy who had asked him something. "It may seem strange, but perhaps she has a valid reason to act that way?" he replied coolly. He had to keep his nerves down, hopefully he would be able to stay calm long enough he could make his leave before anything related to his powers would happen. The word perfection always brought a sour taste to his mouth, because for the majority of his life people defined him this way. It was fine at first, but it just turned sour, and now while he didn't like the word, people who were obsessed with it were people he easily made friends with. "Harsh upbringing...? Firm expectations? Parents forced their views?" Ren suggested. He picked up a blueberry muffin from the mountain of food on his plate, and nibbled it.
