Hit girl sighed. He had a point, but she had her own reasons too. "Look. Since we've trained, I've heard lots of praise for Ruffnut, and barely none for me. Now I don't need you to moon over my ass, God knows I usually do well on my own. It just helps to know I'm headed in the right direction. And as for that, yeah, there's a reason I stay in the suit and not in my civvies. I want to be strong that I worry less about that: by then, it won't matter how young I am, I'll be the fucking strongest."

She crossed her arms. "The more focused I am, the more I improve, the better I'll get, the more confidence I'll have. Oh, and it also helps to have something to actually fight too. It's kinda why I'm on the ship."

It would also help if people would stop bitching at her about killing.
