Chapter 16 is a Meanie Mean-Pants

Me: Chapter 16, what do you have against Yuri?

16: I don't have anything against Yuri. I just don't want to coddle him. He might be your favorite character, but-

Me: Hold on! I don't have a favorite character! That would be like having a favorite child!

16: No one's buying that. You do. It's Yuri. Move on.

Me: Fine. He's my favorite. Is that why you're being so mean to him?

16: He needs to suffer for the plot. You know this.

Me: I mean, a little bit of suffering, sure...

16: It's not like I killed his pets. Hmmm... Could we-

Me: No.

16: Fine. The bunny dragon thingies can live. Can I go now? I need to tell 17 something.
