Despite the chill and how poorly she felt, Tohko was still going about her library duties, sneezing over her shoulder occasionally and almost tripping over small corners. While she never made a mistake in cleaning, today she was making a few, as she sometimes put a book in the wrong spot. After she did this for the third time, she sighed.

"I really need to visit the clinic after this.."

Tohko, having found that the drones weren't much help in giving her medical advice, was looking over some of the pills, trying to decide which ones were the best to take. Tylenol? Advil? Or some of the other, weird and unusual bottles? Normally, she would have just stuck with the cold medicine on the shelf, but she was feeling so out of it that she was starting to consider other options.

Wretched Egg's eyes narrowed for a second and then she started laughing. "Ksha~ Look at that~ The little book girl trying to blackmail me~ How cute~"

Wretched Egg pulled her up as if she weighed nothing, slamming her against the bookcase again before sending her flying across the room. She walked toward her as she spoke. "What about I pull your tongue out of your mouth so that you can't talk anymore~ And then tear your arms apart so that you can't write anymore~ And then I could destroy each book of this library page by page and have you watch~" Now she was towering over her and she planted her foot in the middle of her stomach, pinning her to the ground and took her chin between two fingers. "You think you're very smart. But you still need to learn when to shut up~"

Tohko was going to reply to that 'blackmail' comment, but before she could, she was slammed into the bookshelf again before being tossed across the room. She screamed as she was flung around, both in surprise and in pain, and she bit her lip once Wretched Egg began threatening her.

Tohko tried to pull Wretched Egg's hand off her chin before she spoke again.

"..I wasn't planning on blackmailing you. I was just letting you know what I could do and what could happen if you did hurt me. It would be impossible to hide it from Shiro forever..and I would prefer it if you didn't maul me and the books. After all..if you destroy them, you harm not only me, but others, including yourself."

But she refused to let go of her chin. Stupid, stupid girl. "How many stupid things can you say in a row? I don't care about harming others or harming myself. Quite the opposite~" As if to illustrate her point, Wretched Egg pulled at the stitches of an old scar, reopening the wound. Blood started coming out of the wound forming long strands that seemed to have a life of their own. "And if you still believe I can't hide whatever I want from Shiro, then you really get nothing of what's going on, or of what I am."

Tohko watched as Wretched Egg ripped open one of her old wounds, and stared at it for a moment, puzzled. Why did it look like that blood was moving?

"..However, you care about Shiro, if you weren't lying during those parts of our conversation..and I know who you are..I'm not quite sure what you are yet, but I'm sure I'll figure out soon. And time reveals everything and beats the best chessmastering sometimes."

The wound seemed to close up almost instantly. Wretched Egg shook her head in mock sadness and gave her her most wicked smirk.

"Well I already know what you are. You are... incredibly... annoying."

And without any kind of warning, she let go of Tohko's chin and aimed a violent kick at her stomach.

Tohko looked a little puzzled as that wound closed up. At that comment, she opened up her mouth to reply, but she was was beaten by more of Wretched Egg's beatings. She cried in pain again, and sat up, but as she struggled with the pain, she managed to deliver a reply.

"..I..don't see how. And..if I am, then it's better..to be a bit pesky..then randomly beat people up."

Wretched Egg crouched down next to the now bruised - maybe even a little bleeding - and heavily panting book girl.

"If you take me for just another bully, you're heavily mistaken. I could kill you without breaking a sweat..." And without feeling any kind of remorse either. "Or I could prevent you from ever seeing Shiro again." Since she was the one in control of the personality switches.

"So no, it's not better. What would be better would be for you to nod to show you've understood. And to shut up."

Tohko sighed and tried to get a hold of herself as she replied.

"Even if you kill me or stop Shiro from seeing me, you're still just a high-class bully. Besides, won't Shiro be sad if she can't see me again?"
