It shouldn’t hurt.
Aaron Ling’s seen that look of fear and disgust directed towards him more than a thousand times. Tsukasa had told him to ignore them because they don’t matter and people can be pretty shallow when it comes to first impressions-
But it didn’t mean it didn’t hurt to see them, or worse, to hear them.
Aw, is the monster crying? No one likes a crybaby you little piece of sh*t-
Hiding in a secluded corner of the college campus, Aaron let out a shaky breath of air and buried his head in his knees. He curled into a ball, trying to disappear into thin air.
Tears rolled down his cheeks and he sobbed softly, wondering if it would’ve been better if he hadn’t survived at all.
It was disgusting. She had come to this city for their world renown sociology program, and here she was watching binge drinking frat boys torment a grown man. And Kaede had thought she’d had it bad: at least kids have something of an excuse. Grown ass adults picking on other adults like this though…
It had taken a while, but she finally located the victim between a walled flower bed and the brick wall of the Law building. She sat just outside the gap, leaning against the building’s cornerstone and taking out some work. For a long while, she stayed quiet, letting him get used to the sound of her pen scratching paper. After about ten minutes, she leaned over and peeked into hi hiding spot.
“Hey, so who is it that needs their ass handed to them?”
((physical note, in this verse Kaede grew her hair out so now it’s shorter and mainly black with pink remnants))
