Why is it bad specifically for you?

@Fractured

I was hated by everyone else for being treated as a favorite by our dad. As despised as you can get. Then he turned on me too, inexplicably, so it’s just one massive family of brothers and sisters and such that hate you with a burning passion that you spend all your time around. I wouldn’t recommend growing up like that.

I'd hope not. Was hope a bad place?

@Fractured

Not an ideal place to live. Really, if I remove my bias, it’s not bad if you’re not me.

I hope you like it here. For as long as you're here.

@Fractured

It’s been comfortable, at the very least. And you lot, in the many varieties you come in, are only annoying at worst. Not infuriating like back home.

I'll have to take your word for it.

@Fractured

Glad I convinced you a little bit.
*Smirks with my arms still crossed*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

It's not usually a choice like that.

@Fractured

I’m just that good.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

I hope you're still growing as a person, at least.

@Fractured

On my own terms. Consciously.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

It's how likes and dislikes work.

@Fractured

It’s stupid. Final answer. Don’t need to be tempered in any way to decide how I feel about things.
*Crosses my arms*

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Are you doing alright?

@Fractured

It’s nothing.
*Looks back to you and clears my throat*
Nothing. Conditioning is stupid.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Then you've been conditioned to enjoy it. That's just how enjoyment works.

@Fractured

How could that be true if I’ve enjoyed it for as long as I can remember?
*Stares to the side, going into deep thought*
Ever since I was a kid...

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Do you enjoy fighting?

@Fractured

Yes.
