tenth lesson [voice]

[jusenkyoed]

[After yesterday, Ranma made a decision to give in. There wasn't much time to hear about the stuff with the milk, but there was something he could do in the end. After what happened yesterday, he needed to atone for that. There was no reason for him turning into what he did, and the least he could do was make himself useful. And drink the milk

[Taiga might think that Ranma is a complete and utter jerkass, but... this phonecall is unsettling.]

O-oi, don't... don't be stupid. You aren't gonna d-die.

[jusenkyoed]

[And he seriously would, in a jerkass tone, say "Wouldn't you be happy about that?" if he wasn't so sure about it.]

...feels like I am. [He pauses, trying to hold his stomach's contents in.] Least I ain't bleedin' yet...

[tsuntiger]

Y-yet? [Yeah, she can tell he's hurting...]

Why'd you do it?

[jusenkyoed]

...new mom's already died once. [He's trying not to mind that too much, since she seems to be smarter than she seems.] I tried not drinkin' it, that didn't work out either.

[tsuntiger]

Already...?

You're an idiot. You... you shouldn't have.

[jusenkyoed]

Well what else was I supposed to do?! [urgh, he stops talking momentarily. Yelling does nothing but hurt.]

...it's either let more people get killed or take one for the team.

[tsuntiger]

S-stupid! [What else can she even call him right now? Dumb? Idiotic? An imbecile?]

Don't do it again... It's not fair.

[jusenkyoed]

There ain't anythin' unfair about it... [maybe. it still sucks either way...]

'Sides. I ain't gonna die forever, right? I mean, I'm here right now.

[tsuntiger]

You're a kid! You shouldn't have to.

..I-it's still not okay.

[jusenkyoed]

Oi, just because you're a little older than I am doesn't mean you can talk to me like I'm a runt...
