'''Sae:''' Well, what if me and Momo-chan were together and I was crying? It's the same thing. The idea is that whoever cries first wins. People are such that everyone thinks whoever looks weaker is the victim. The truth is, when I said that Momo-chan was trying to steal my Toji away, nobody doubted me. On the contrary, they all said it seemed like something she would do. Everyone only sees what's on the surface. Even Toji.\\

'''Sae:''' It's simple. What you think if you saw a lion in front of you and next it was a wounded gazelle down on the ground?\\
'''Kairi:''' Well, I would think that it had been mauled by the lion and feel sorry for it.\\

\n\n\n->''“After listening for almost twenty-five years to the stories my patients tell me about sociopaths who have invaded and injured their lives, when I am asked, “How can I tell whom not to trust?” the answer I give usually surprises people. The natural expectation is that I will describe some sinister-sounding detail of behavior or snippet of body language or threatening use of language that is the subtle giveaway. Instead, I take people aback by assuring them that the tip-off is none of these things, for none of these things is reliably present. Rather, the best clue is, of all things, the pity play. The most reliable sign, the most universal behavior of unscrupulous people is not directed, as one might imagine, at our fearfulness. It is, perversely, an appeal to our sympathy.”''
