[Honestly, he feels the same. he's not sure why he talks to her, too. She's so.... Annoying! Infuriating! Confusing! He huffs, but when Monika starts moving again, he follows her up the stairs from behind.]

Because there's a chance of either my holoavatar generator burning out, or worse... a feedback-induced spark burnout. Death, in other words.

[Luckily, that did not happen, and if he had actually sense he was in real danger, he would've deactivate the avatar immediately. Had she aimed the knife at any "vital" spots, or shocked him any longer than she did, he would actually die.

Regardless, he made it out alive.]

If... [And he's emphasizing the "if" here because haha no way they're going to something that dumb again.] There is a next time, I do not mind you using a knife, just be careful to not "kill" the avatar.

[He lets out a sigh.]

... I can't believe you've awakened something new in me. [Yea, he's blaming her for his new kink.]
