['Pet.' Like he's some sort of dog, but Scott can't help but think that even dogs are treated better than this. It doesn't look like that expression on the mutant is going to shift anytime soon as he continues to listen to Ivan, not when a somewhat familiar self-righteous anger keeps him like this. It's just wrong.

Things shouldn't be like that, just like how sorcerers shouldn't keep dying young in Getou's world.]

Of course it bothers me. [Why is this even a question?? There's definitely implications behind that too, which predictably, doesn't do anything to help Scott's mood.]

You shouldn't be treated like a slave. Or a pet. Neither you, the other person that's here, or anyone else from your home. You should be able to make your own choices, even if they're stupid.
