[HE SHOULD KNOW THAT THIS IS A TRAP.

But this is Ryuji we're talking about.]

Your mom sounded like a nice person.

She single?

Hah!! Do you actually think a Goddess would ever look your way? Humans are to Gods what ants are to humans.

You should know that my mother is as terrifying as she is kind. And her kindness itself is a rare thing. Many haven’t had the chance to see it for themselves, including my own father.

I dunno. You're part god, right?

In a way, yes, but I never lost my humanity. I was a mortal.

[Whoosh.

That was teasing, but he guesses it didn't reach him well enough.]

Uh. I mean. That's pretty obvious. You basically told the rest of the army to fuck off because you didn't get your way.

That's pretty human to me.

[And petty.

But who's keeping score?]

If that's what you got out of it, then you don't know anything at all.

[ It was about honour. Honour and ~~his~~ a penis. ]

What was goin' through your mind when it happened, then?

I wanted to kill the bastard.

Yeah, I read that part too.

This entire book is about how pissed off you were. I kinda like it so far. You were like... the first James Dean or somethin'

James Dean?

Never heard of him, so how great can he be? He's no Heroic Spirit. [ Yes, he's still butthurt. ] That story is just a glimpse into my past. I've defeated many opponents and carved my name in history through my victories.

You're not finished, huh? Why don't I spare you the details.

Touch the back of your ankle.

Yeah. He was a total rebel badass. Like... the whole spirit of teenage angst and shit. Famous actor, pretty well loved and known for playing in "Rebel Without a Cause"

[He likes to watch American movies to feel cool, ok?]

You want me to stop reading? I mean... aight, it's no big deal. I wanted to know about you, so I asked Gramps for a hand.

OH...

OH THE ACHILLES TENDON IS NAMED AFTER YOU. Fuckkkk. It makes sense.

Dude, I bruised mine once and it was inflamed for like, weeks. Made running torture.

An actor, huh? Don't compare me to something like that. That's an insult, you know.

It was my heel.

I died after getting shot there with an arrow.

Actors are kinda highly respected in my time. A symbolic one like the guy I just mentioned birthed an entire generation of teenagers who wanted to put the big ole middle finger up to adults. Practically one of the first punk images.

Shit, I mean. At least I'm still alive.

But you mean to tell me that you, the dude who practically saved all of your country, went down because some dude shot you in the heel?

That's uh. Messed up.

It's laughable, isn't it?

Though, now you know my weakness, so I might just have to kill you.

Hold on, lemme just blow on your ankle. I got this.

I don't know about that. But if you're offering, maybe I'll let you blow on something else.

Yeah. uhhh

I'm gonna go back to reading.

Why read about me when I'm right here.

I was there.

I could tell you anything you needed to know.

Is it weird that I'm like... practically facebook stalking you?

What's facebook...

I wish I knew the answer to that one myself.

I think you'd enjoy it though. I don't know why.

Then how am I supposed to know if it's weird?

It's weirder that you didn't know who I was before.

It's a place where you post pictures of yourself and talk about what you're doin' and how your day was. And comment on other peoples' posts and shit. It's kinda lame. Bein' social sucks.

Hey! You can't blame me for not knowing stuff. C'mon, be happy that I wanna learn.

Huh? Why would you think I'd like that? It sounds tedious and uneventful.

You knew who James Dean was and he hasn't accomplished anything. Do the people of your day and age care more about actors than actual heroes?

[Because lots of people use it to hook up.]

I dunno. Sounds like you'd be the type of guy to post selfies all day every day.

"What's a selfie?"

Yeah it's when you use a camera to take a picture of yourself from like, the top down

And. I dunno. It might just be me. I'm not that bright, so maybe I'm lookin' for all the wrong things or something. I wish I paid more attention in class, but... it's hard. I really suck at retaining shit.
