What's the worst thing that has ever happened to you?

[Please, go into detail. Hearing about the misery of others is a bonding experience for him.]

How did you handle it? Did you get revenge? Could you get revenge?

Oh, absolutely. For her crimes, I cast her out in the Sealed Forest and she was torn apart by demonic beasts.





Just kidding. Turns out my missing prized possessions weren't missing after all. Hilda said she was sick of seeing my book collection littering every inch of my room, so she tidied up and put them safely in a chest at the foot of my bed.

Thus concludes my terrible tale of woe!

Well done! I couldn't have come up with a better punishment myself. How dare she -




Are you kidding me. This is a joke, right.

You wanted a story about something awful that happened to us, right? I provided.

[cultivatingsin]

No one died, no one was punished, no one was even injured! You built up the tension and then let me down.

Sorry to be such a tease, but this island's had more than its fill of death and injury of late. I thought my story would bring a little fun to the table.

You're a silly person.

I do like to laugh, so I'll forgive you.

[leicesters]

Good! Glad to hear it.

Got any silly stories of your own? Preferably with no death, declarations of revenge, or maiming.

You're making this difficult for me! I might have to ignore your preferences. See, I've lived my life as first, an orphan, then, briefly, a student, then an assassin. I've tortured, maimed, tricked, killed for the majority of my life. It pays pretty well.

Which is all very lovely, but I've met your type before. I'm sure you have some silliness buried under there. You even admitted you have a sense of humour!

Don't you have anything at all?

[cultivatingsin]

Well I do! My life just hasn't been very funny.

Unless you count the time my Senior pulled me off a roof with an invisible string. That was pretty funny.

Not here

[It is at this point in the story that Souma, listening to this from his room, does a spit take and has to cover his face while he giggles. He doesn't know who this is, but he found that very, very funny.]
