0E. Oh, the HORROR!!!!
The man says, "I am Theb. I was born 71 years ago, the 2nd oldest of 5. My father was very abusive mentally and emotionally especially. But my big brother was his step-son, so my father was very physically abusing against him. He slapped him almost every day, and beat him from time to time. When I was 10, my father arranged for me to be used as part of a sex ritual, and drugged me to block the memory. I was hated in school because of my father. No one in town liked him. I got married young, and we had wonderful years together. But my wife became devastatingly ill and miscarried both of our children. She survived cancer, pneumonia, cancer again, and various unidentified diseases. All the while she was fighting a condition that left her with hundreds of extremely painful benign tumours. It was my father who killed her. But he had moved to a new city and made a name for himself, so no one believed me. I tried to get justice on my own, but he injected me with Badblood when I attacked him. He gave me such a high dose, I couldn't tell what was happening and woke up in Nexus. I'm not from Nexus. Best I can tell, I'm not even from this Oner. Badblood became my only comfort. It helped me forget my pain at first. Now it just helps me ignore the pain. But when I heard that music and listened to the words, watching you, I felt that you accepted my pain. Something about it all made me feel that I wasn't broken, because you showed me that brokenness can be held and cuddled. Instead of fighting my pain, when I looked at you, I fed my pain. I revelled in it. I accepted it, and I accepted my own corruption. If I've become like my father, then so be it. I can be anything and it doesn't matter anymore, because only you matter. Who are you, master?"
The other users are both women. The first woman says, "My name is Beth. I was born sick. My parents, grandmother, aunts and uncles all used me as their mental punching bag. When I was 6, my babysitter, well, you know. When I was 8, it was a boy in the hospital who, you know. When I was 9 the only man who ever protected me, my grandfather, died. I cried for a month. Over the years, other people used my body too. When I was 16, I saw my cousin decapitated by a beetlecar. My classmates were the drivers, and I overheard them laughing at how stupid my cousin was for walking on the side of the road, and how high they had been at the time. My mother blamed me for my cousin's death, she said I should've given him a ride in my beetlecar. She sold me to a pirate to pay off her debt. After years as the pirate's slave, I ran away to Nexus. You make me feel like my pain is just part of who I am, and I want other people to have that freedom, too, master."
The second woman says, "I'm Joline. My parents were great. I tried Goodblood when I was 17, and my parents scolded me for it. I ran away to teach them a lesson. I was only planning on being gone for 1 day. But I was kidnapped and sold to pirates. They used me until I was 'too ugly to be used anymore', and they tossed me out on the streets of Nexus. When I look at you, I don't regret running away anymore, because it lead me to you, master."
While they're talking, a woman dressed like Truly Scrumptious walks by. It isn't her, but she's dressed the same.
