[That gives him pause. He thinks about Deuce and Azul, the two people he knows of who've gone missing. Then he thinks about Rinne's disappearance and reappearance, and about a certain rumor he and Senku discussed. A nasty one about what might happen to people who vanish here.]
I hope that's true for their sakes.
[He won't bring that last thing up. Nor will he share his other pessimistic thoughts. Without evidence, he'd just be creating needless worry.]
I'm glad they can't break your spirit. I won't pretend I know what it's like to be assigned a lower rank, but I've seen for myself how that sort of thing can foster resentment.
[He's talking about his old school, with its "Special Student" and "Non-Special Student" system. The one he already told Loki about.]
Honestly, one of the things that makes me leeriest is the existence of those "suit effects." Some of the effects include nightmares, hallucinations, violent urges, and other stuff like that. I feel like those would make sex harder to obtain, not easier. Which really makes me wonder if their ultimate goal is something other than everyone just sleeping around a lot. It feels almost like they want to tear our souls apart. Or else chip away at our sense of self until there's nothing left.
It doesn't sound like it'll work in your case, though. Or in my case. So they'll just have to cry about it when they don't achieve the results they want.
