Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You should allow me to take the phone call for you, ita.

I just listened to the message, and yes. I needed you as filter. Royally pissed still. More pissed, even.

And you ORDERED THIS? Not under duress?!

Do what you need to do, ita. But don't order the sea urchin. I really can't advise that, no matter the circumstances.

What she said, especially since you didn't even finish it at the Hump.

I like the flavor of uni.

Yeah, the rest of the group was surprised too. But it worked out okay, especially because I only had to eat one of them.

Perhaps there was a slight machisma attack. I am that girl.

The kindest spin to put on the voicemail I just received is that apparently I'll calm down and not object to what he did. Sure, I'll calm down. Won't change my essential opinion, though. Just the electricity in my response.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I have drafted a letter to him in my head. I shall write it down and keep it safe.

It begins, "Dear Pus Stain,"

...however, you are free to change that.

Fuck that noise.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'll calm down and not object to what he did.

So his whole treating you like you're not an actual adult problem hasn't gone anywhere. Hmmph.

Okay. I'm revising the letter. It was much too polite, and I need to fully make him piss ice for the arrogance of that.

Perhaps you'll have his license to practice revoked, and he'll calm down and not object to it. I mean, he didn't mind doing it to you, right?

You know what? You don't need to spin it right now. He violated your privacy in a really horrible manner, it doesn't matter his the flavor of his intentions. You can worry about that later, should you want to. Until he can understand what he did was wrong, he ought to get no leeway in trying to fix anything.
