This is bad. Very bad. Beyond bad.

What. The Hell. Am. I. Supposed. To. Do. Now.

I have no clue. But this is what I want to do - to find a safe place for you to stay, then to find out exactly who it was that did this to you. Plenty of people know, they're just not saying. And when I find out, I will hunt. Them. Down. Because regardless of what you did, the way they are treating you is totally unacceptable. I will find them, and I will scream bloody murder, fire and brimstone, anything you like, until I get my message across. I will tell them my side of the story, and I will not stop until I can proclaim your vindication.

Apparently you're leading me astray. What. Utter. Rubbish. As it so happens, you helped me a thousand times more than any of them ever did. Contrary to their superficial, spur-of-the-moment opinions, I am not a shy, wide-eyed innocent just waiting to be dominated by someone with a stronger will than mine. I am an adult, I am independent, and I am very, very angry. To suggest that you are leading me away from the most important thing in my life is a staggering untruth - the exact opposite is the case - and to suggest that I am stupid and spineless enough to allow you to do it is an insult to my intelligence. I am not a gutless jellyfish with no willpower, and you are not a threat that I need to protected from. I have no obligation to them, but I fully intend to stick by you.

And you're totally right. They will pay.
