🔥"You could trust me, right?"
" Trust you? Hm...no. I never fully trust anyone. Especially not after that incident with the catnip. Nothing personal, it's just safer that way."
" Well...onto the task at hand now, yes? A fear...well there's not many I have, though there is one thing that once kept me up at times" He let out a sigh, a sense of unease coming over him.
" Perhaps it might seem silly, given the show I put on in front of everyone. But...truly I fear I've hit the point of no return in this silly game. I've done what needs to be done, not caring who was in my way, or what the intentions were. If someone paid me well enough for a job, I took it. Sure at times I twist the plan to my own benefit, but that's just how it goes, yes?"
He went silent for a bit, looking toward the ground and tapping his claws on his leg.
" I've made many enemies...built quite the reputation. No one...really likes me, do they? I didn't mind a few enemies at first, but it's hard to ignore the many dirty looks people give you whenever you're in the room."
" I get tired of fighting sometimes. Sometimes I'd like to just go a day without plotting. Without looking over my shoulder cause someone may be watching. That'd be nice, wouldn't it? Unfortunately, the life I've created for myself just doesn't really allow it."
" I'm scared...I'll never be able to turn things around. That I've burnt too many bridges and made too many enemies. It's foolish for me to be worried about this, isn't it?"
" After all...I did this to myself."
