Eh? But I'd hardly have gotten to this, the prime of my life, if I hadn't been relying on others... I'm not too proud to admit I'm something of a liability by nature, you know? I have extremely bad luck, so it really can't be helped. I sneeze and next thing you know there's a train hurdling in my direction, jumping the tracks, and it's on fire, and it's being driven by man-eating bears... that kind of thing.
[ a very apt analogy, if there ever was one. ]
What about you? Are you saying you're the self-sufficient sort? If you're in a school where they teach combat training and all that, are you some super cool secret swordsman or martial artist or something?
