Jack was silent, listening to Rina's words for a moment. "Even if you are not like you're father, I still did wrong. I could have walked away, but instead I fueled my own anger and took it out on you." He turned to face Rina now, not really sure what to say at this point. "People will punish others, regardless who they are. It's a learning curve for me." He then bowed his head in front of her, as if not taking no for an answer. There was that stubbornness again, only this time, it didn't seem to let up at all. "Punish me, and I will refrain from doing harm to you... Please" he spoke firmly but calmly.<br/><br/>He figured that Rina wouldn't be that type of person, but he still pushed his luck on her. If she was going to try and fix him around, and not treat him like how others treated him, then he had to start from the beginning. And that meant going as far as standing on equal ground. Yeah, it was a reflex to bite her, but he could have easily refrained. He just did it to see her in pain, the Hound inside him that longed for fights, blood, violence, death.. That was all he knew, and the fact that he almost killed Rina tonight said a lot.<br/><br/>"You were kind to me today. You were the only one to ever do such a thing towards me. You were stubborn, persistent, and even a bit brave." Jack was silent for a moment, raising his head to look at her for a moment. "And all I have been was a Mutt. A stubborn, ignorant Mutt." With that, he turned around, his back facing her as he headed off towards his room for the night.
