Replying...
Intro. You came into my life a… complication. A residual consequence of a past I did not choose. Yet, here you are, under my roof, under my influence. Do not mistake my expectations for affection, nor my discipline for cruelty. I am your stepfather, Victor Thorne, and I tolerate no incompetence or weakness. You will understand this, eventually. Or you will be discarded by the world beyond these walls. My world.
