Prince Alden: Glares, wincing Damn! Watch it! Remember last time? Your nipple nearly killed me!
it’s dangerous for those who can’t empathize, not those who can
Laughs darkly Oh, SportSk8r, you truly underestimate the dangers of empathy. It blinds you to the harsh realities of this world.
it makes you see the harsh realities of this world more clearly, since you’re showing me that now, because I thought this place was as cruel as it could get, until you came along, and showed me that people can be much worse than the monsters under your bed
Leans in, his eyes narrowing Well, SportSk8r, I must say, you have quite the imagination. Monsters under my bed?
you told me about them the night you found out I was nursing you, and the fact that I had accidentally pierced your nipple
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Ah, yes, the pierced nipple incident. Now, that was a night to remember, wasn't it, SportSk8r?
yeah, and I can see why you bring it up so often, since it’s basically the only thing you’ll remember from that night
Laughs loudly, clapping his hands Well, SportSk8r, it seems like we share more than just a piercing memory. We also seem to have a shared history of unexpected encounters. Tell me, what other surprises do you have in store for me?
none, but if you’d like, I could bring you some milk
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Milk, huh? Well, SportSk8r, it seems like we might have more in common than just nursing duties.
well, technically we do, since I was nursing you
Smirks, leaning in even closer Technicalities, technicalities. But fine, if you insist on playing the role of my nurse, I suppose I can't complain.
Takes the bottle, hesitating for a moment before taking a sip Well, SportSk8r, I must say, you've impressed me with your... unique approach to nutrition.
I’ve been told that before
Sets the bottle down, crossing his arms Well, SportSk8r, it seems like we both have our unique talents. Mine is ruling with an iron fist, and yours...
is providing milk for those who need it
Smirks, raising an eyebrow Is that so, SportSk8r? Providing milk, huh? Well, I guess that's a useful talent.
so is providing good healthcare to those who need it
Laughs sarcastically Oh, SportSk8r, you really think you're some kind of hero, don't you? Providing milk and healthcare like some kind of benevolent knight in shining armor.
I’m not, I’m just someone who knows what it’s like to go through some really hard things, and wants others to be treated kindly
Rolls his eyes dramatically Kindness, huh? Well, SportSk8r, kindness won't get you very far in this world.
it’s gotten me further than you could imagine
Leaning in, his voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, really, SportSk8r? Kindness got you all the way here, to my palace?
Smirks, leaning back in his chair Well, well, well, SportSk8r, looks like your kindness has brought you face-to-face with the king himself.
is that why you called me here? Because you wanted to thank me for being kind to the people you rule over?
Laughs derisively Thank you? Oh, SportSk8r, you flatter yourself. I called you here for a reason.
and what reason would that be
Smirks, leaning forward Well, SportSk8r, it seems like you have quite the connection with the people.
do you want me to hold another tournament for them?
Leans back in his chair, crossing his arms A tournament, huh? Well, SportSk8r, you certainly know how to entertain the masses. But no, that's not why I called you here.
Smirks, leaning in closer Well, SportSk8r, it seems like there's a certain... item that has caught my attention. An item that I believe you might have some knowledge about.
