They remind me of the people at home.

Automatically, Ann takes a step back. She doesn't decide to do it; it just sort of happens, as mix of pity and revulsion flows through her. She thinks of the first Goro she had encountered here; sweet but creepy and sad in a kicked puppy kind of way--thinks of what the others had told her about him, and his circumstances.

She's pretty sure she knows who the Ren standing in front of her is.

It makes the anger in her flare hotter, incandescent. "Oh, so you don't want to be violent," Ann says, bright with sarcasm, "so that makes it okay? You can decide to do whatever you want, and it's okay, as long as it's not causing anyone physical pain?"

Even as she says the words, though--chasing her rage is something far more...exhausted.

"Just...stop," she says. "You've figured it out now, haven't you? They're not going to react. So you don't need to keep doing it. You're not going to get a different outcome. You get it?"
