Pfah——It's freezing cold!

Wha... MuMu?!

MuMu, help me... I don't want to...

Shhh——You can't tell anyone I'm here.

It's okay. I'll take care of it.

Hehe, I'm not worried at all. You're going to be fine.

But remember what we agreed, Iffy?

Cruel.

Wanton.

Rampage.

Destroyed everything.

I know it's all true.

The painful experiments make me sick.

The stares of the people in the white coats make me sick.

This place makes me sick.

This is no life.

This is no future.

All it would take is one flame, one lick hot enough, and all their disgusting eyes, all those white walls stinking of disinfectant, all of it would go up in smoke.

As long as the people I like survive.

The rest mean nothing.

——That's how I used to think. Before I came here.

I think that's how I always thought.

But I'm different now.

Cruel.

I know I know.

Wanton.

Okay, fine, I'll be careful.

Rampage.

...it really wasn't that bad!

Destroyed everything.

I didn't mean to!

It's not like I don't know.

But at least, hrm...

Like you said. I can do it.

I won't burn Rhodes Island, or my homework.

Or my friends. Hrmm... my friends are all as great as me anyway!

So, it's fine. I get it. I haven't been trying hard enough. I have to try even harder.

Just watch me. I'll show all of you!

Hmph!

A whole corridor destroyed, just like that?;Chargrilled sandworm leg. Want one?

N- no! Agh! It's none of your business!

Grr... That Little Red Riding hood and, everyone else, they're okay...?

You helped Hood get away? Hmph, good.

I'm dangerous? Everyone's dangerous? Oh...

Let me have one... N- no! I don't want to eat it!

I can't... eat that much.

That whole, thing, back in the hallway, I didn't do it on purpose... So, I guess, I'm- I'm sorry!

Gross, why are you looking at me like that...?

Oh, hey, don't you need to check my homework? Here it is!

This notebook looks a little scorched.;......

Gah, don't take it if you don't like it!

You can make it out, can't you?

Here. This is the homework.

There was a little accident and it got like this... Hey, what's with that look? Just come out and say it!

It is what it is! Who cares if you don't believe me. I did the whole thing. I really did!

It's- it just got a little... ripped... and singed... and splashed.

And um erm, some of them I just kind of guessed, but... I'll do better next time!

I screwed up again.

Just lay into me already. I can take it.

Ifrit, give me your hand.

Huh? Why?

Ow! Not so rough!

Hm?

It's my... dried peppers? My favorite dried peppers!

You, uh? I can have them?

Hey... what the hell! You prick! Don't think you can just give me a little snack and then... and then...

(Sniffle)

Hah. Fine then. But I still think you white coat dumbasses are hella gross!

(Whisper) But I guess you can be an exception!

But I'm warning you! Don't treat me like a kid all time, like Silence does!

I'll get angry! And you wouldn't like me when I'm angry!

You are an exemplary operator.;Truly imposing, Iffy.

Gr... Grr... where did that come from all of a sudden?! It's obvious anyway!

Gah——Cough cough cough.

And who taught you that nickname anyw—— No, who—— who said you could call me that!

You'll be joining the next operation.

Really? Really really?

You mean it? I can go out on the next mission? You really mean it? No kidding?

But...

But what?

Open your damned mouth!

You want me to think it through myself? What's that supposed to mean...?

Right. I have to go apologize...

The medic lady, I didn't mean to scare her... And I shouldn't have been so rough with Frostleaf and Hood...

Hey, Doctor, can you do me a favor? Can you come with me? To apologize?

Why not go yourself?;Are you going to scare more medics?

I...

I know I screwed up.

But they're really the worst! Still... I shouldn't do that to them...

And I don't want people blaming you for it either.

Next time we go to the beach, would you like to join us?

Beach? What's that?

Doesn't matter. I'll go! I wanna go!

Erm, but, why did you invite me all of a sudden? You're kind of a weirdo, Doctor...

Because if you behave yourself, I think I could convince Silence to let you go.

Ugh. You're always trying to make me do stuff, huh?

Will you go apologize?

Hmph. Fine! I can do it! I can apologize!

So we have a deal? No backsies! You have to let me go!

Hehe. 'Beach!' Yeah, sounds pretty sweet.
